Xplorer Review

Xplorer is an appealing and well-executed hidden object/I spy Mac game for all die-hard fans of this kind of genre. The sceneries are magnificent and clear. The music is dramatic and appropriate for the pictures.

The hidden object play is the usual listed items you need to uncover and click on in each scene. Some things are more difficult to spot than others so the helps do come in handy. The magnifying glass will reveal many objects for you. If that isn’t enough, try clicking on the battery and the flashing lights will steer you to the item. In this game there is a scrolling machine to unveil more of the scene. I found going back and forth a little bothersome but minor in the scope of things.

When reviewing games I usually play it for 30 minutes, and if I’m not crazy about a game, I will go back to it to see if I missed something, and many times I end up liking the game. However Xplorer gives you only 30 minutes of demo time which extremely limits your play. If you are like me, I read the instructions and everything related to the play. I didn’t even have time to enlarge the screen to full size since I couldn’t find the options button. I really did not want to waste my precious 30 minutes looking for options or reading the instructions.

From what I could tell Xplorer’s scenes are exquisite and challenging. I did not enjoy scrolling the pictures while looking for the objects. The helps are good and plentiful if you find the extra battery in each scene. I think with lack of a story, this Mac game is for hidden object enthusiasts who are looking for a challenging play. I couldn’t relax and enjoy the game more because of the 30 minute limit.
