Ani, our in house expert on hidden object games here at www.joellyjoel.com, wrote a review for us on Hidden Expedition Everest!

Hidden Expedition Mt. Everest Review

I’ve liked hidden picture games ever since I was a kid. I remember picking up my first copy of Highlights magazine in the doctor’s waiting room and loving finding the wrench in the lady’s dress or the ice cream cone in the tree. Hidden Exposition Mt. Everest is similar to that but so much cooler. The graphics are really precise so you can tell with great clarity what each object is meant to be. The artists do a great job hiding each image without making it totally impossible to see. I will sometimes end up looking for an object longer than I’d like, but once found I rarely feel disappointed with the quality of the image. Racing against other teams creates a sense of urgency beyond just competing against the clock. Besides just looking for the objects listed at the bottom of the page, there are different colored gems scattered throughout each scene. When found, these gems give you points which add in the form of hints. The more gems you find the more hints you can use to help find the harder or more hidden objects. Although there are quite a few scenes to find objects in, the game does direct you back to the same scenes every so often. Going back to the same scene is really fun because although you are looking for a different set of objects the second time, if you were looking closely the first time you played it makes it easier to find the objects the next time you visit that scene. The game is tricky though, because you might remember seeing a turtle, for instance, and it could have actually been in another scene altogether. Although the landscape and scenery change, many of the same objects are used in multiple scenes. These objects look different thought so you must be careful! A “fan” in one scene might be a hand-held paper fan, and in the next scene you might be looking for a “fan” that is actually an automatic oscillating fan. Once a number of levels are passed, a scene will be showed over again but this time they will ask you to be looking for 20 pair of chopsticks or 10 hearts and 10 bugs. There will be 20 different looking chopsticks to be found in a scene where there were no chopsticks last time you visited that scene. These side games are also pretty fun. One great aspect of this game is the subtle educational part of it. There are geography lessons and history lessons snuck into the game and you don’t even really realize you are learning as you are playing. This is a fun, quality game that does not involve any violence or negativity but spurs creativity and imagination. I would highly recommend this game for both kids and adults alike.

Check out this GREAT Review for Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children
I cannot say how much I appreciate these games Virtual Villagers is a fantastic gaming series. My children all love to play. We all sit around our computer talking about what we need to do to advance our village. We also giggle about the different things we can do to the villagers. Great idea with no violence I appreciate that so much. I especially like the levels of play #1 is a bit easier though my children did figure out the golden child where it was taking me ages to figure that out. The lost children is a bit more difficult you have to think and work at keeping them alive, and I do love the feature of being able to use tech points to buy different clothes for the villagers instead of them just adding up into infinity.

Thanks for reading and keep on gaming!
