Murder in Alps: Hidden Mystery 12+

Great Game

Overall a great game. Designed really well with good story line and mini games. Have really enjoyed playing it. I really only 3 minor complaints which would make the game for from a 4 to a 5 which is:
1. It takes far too long for the energy level to build up to play. It’s obviously a game set to encourage to purchase the energy. Otherwise playing free, you either get 1 decent session of game play once a day or short game plays twice a day. Anymore then 2, you’re pretty much doing one or two moves before you can do anything again
2. There’s no way to get any free energy. No incentives for logging in daily. Don’t get me wrong, love that there are no ads but would be great if there was some kind of free incentive to get more energy so you can play more
3. In the main games where you have to find items, it’s very obviously set so you have to use the hint and waste your energy. Where the item is not in plain sight or even slightly plain sight. You have to know exactly where and what to press for the hidden item to appear thus having to use the hint feature. Again I don’t mind using the hint feature if it there was more ways to obtain energy other than waiting 24 hours or more.

There's only one way to find out, so get your magnifying glass and your detective hat because this amazing movie-like experience awaits!

Energy adjustments have saved this game

I installed this game about two weeks ago and would originally have given it 3/5 because of the crippling effect of the energy system, which limited interaction with the game to barely 3 minutes per day.

A few days ago there was an update that has seemingly upped the number of advertisements that a player can watch to add energy, meaning I’ve been able to play for almost a good half hour each day - a vital increase given how slow energy regenerates in the background.

Now the energy issues don’t take away from the rest of the game so much. Which is a good thing, because this game is fantastic:
- The storyline is wonderful, with a great setting that’s brought to life with beautiful images and cool graphic-novel style narrative sections.
- The voice acting is fantastic, and the background music really adds to the ambience - and I’m usually one to mute a game while I play it.
- The puzzles are just the right difficulty level to make you think but not enrage you, and hints are there for when you’re truly stumped.
- The search scenes are enjoyably difficult with the unusual addition of things you have to move and actions to take in order to actually find some objects.
- The game seems to be quite long. I’ve been playing for a fortnight now and I’m barely part way through the first chapter, and I see there’s at least another 4 stories ahead of me to go through.

Top notch game that I’m very glad I tried.
