Thanks for the reviews. As always, try if out for yourself and see what you think. I found this game surprisingly fun and interesting. In this Collector's Edition version, there's always the built in Strategy Guide to help you.
The graphics are excellent with good voiceovers but it is a bit odd that the lip-syncing seems to be a hit or miss sort of thing. Some of the cutscenes were clear and the colors crisp. The HOPS are a lot of fun and there is the usual variety but I still prefer the list type. The sound doesn't manage to match the top quality of the graphics, unfortunately.
The Hidden Object Scenes are mostly Interactive List finds, the scenes are beautifully drawn and there are a ton of interactive items. Graphics: They are absolutely gorgeous. The animals are totally adorable. And I just like looking at the scenery. They were creative. It's just nice to have a fun and relaxing game to play. This is one of them.
Colors are quite nice and bright, very true. The scenes are fairly clear and items are not difficult to find. I don't like to give too much detail about the specific HOPS or puzzles because it is far more fun to discover for yourself what a game holds in store for you. All in all, Dead Reckoning: Sleight of Murder is a good game. Not an amazing one.
The graphics are beautiful and, yes, icy but perfect for a cold and rainy day here in my town. Dead Reckoning: Sleight of Murder has a great story, cute hidden object scenes, fun puzzles! I think all levels of players will find this one fun for one reason or another. The graphics are beautifully hand drawn which the production team has become famous for in all of their games.
First of all, the landscapes and sceneries in this installment is mesmerizing; filled with exotic locations and interestingly-designed themes. This game has fairly nice graphics, but could be a bit clearer. The remaining extras are always found in CEs such as a bonus game, strategy guide, etc. It is a perfect game for a lazy day.
Each game in this series has a little different story line and they have all been interesting. I've been playing this game for 2 hours and I still quite a ways to go. The hidden object scenes and the puzzles are also quite standard. If you are new to HOPA games and not sure about puzzles, then there is a skip button available.
Dead Reckoning: Sleight of Murder - the Collector's Edition - comes with all the goodies one expects from one. We get easy to find Collectibles, wallpapers, art images and a bonus chapter.
