Psyche

Category: PC Games

Genre: Hide and Seek & Detective

Console: PC Games

At a wedding expo there was a murder and Shawn and Gus are involved in solving it.  You can enjoy it more with voices attached to it.

You can play easy, casual or expert.

The story pushes along quickly and there is only one moment in the game that got me confused is when you leave the car and they keep sending me back to the car under HINTS.

You just need to walk away from the car a scene before asking HINTS to find out where to go.

This game came into a 4 Pack. (see photo)

Genre: Hide and Seek & Paranormal Adventures

Console: PC Games

In this 2013 game Shadow Shelter your investigating a missing heir to an estate.

Here is all you need to know:

1.  Use the map when available.

2.  When you get to the scene above - use the weapons on the stuffed creatures that are stuffed not on the one attacking you.

3.  When faced the ending - grab the blue boxes around the creature.

4.  Before you go to the basement use the thistle into the medallion in the room with the big plant and boiled pot.

Also there is a lot of popping from room to room over story. 

However, the ending was cheesy and neat at the same time.

This game is the story of a man who is off to a castle Malgray to get an assessment before the sale.

We learn this particular castle has ghosts and vampires and the heir that could inherit the place right from under the company.

There is a lot of point and click as well as lot of chat with sound.

The "twist" you thought isn't the one you get at the end.

You should play this one game within a day.

P.S. Have fun not thinking the main character is a Keanu Reeves look-alike.

The only time you should need the HINT button is in the last scene where you don't notice the hook highlighted to be able to use,

Don't forget to use the MAP to travel faster - but if you can't finish this game within an hour - you need to think faster.

Genre: Hide and Seek, Design

Console: PC Games

Your helping a frustrated author who needs to get it away from it all to work on a follow up novel.  Your seeking out items and coins to collect enough money to help design the hide-a-way home.

You work 12 levels - either on a timer or casual mode - trying to keep this author in a good mood.

The photo is the last scene of the house I created for her, which she will comment how the item makes her feel, which makes you want to change things up.  You can always earn more money to change the design.

You also get a cat, which I named BigButt, which is funny when she calls it to "play" and a bird that comes with no option to name.

I enjoy design games without getting bored of so many levels to earn enough to do it.  This is a two day game.

Family Vacation 2: Road Trip

5 out of 5 Stars

Category: PC Games

Genre: Adventure, Hide and Seek, Puzzles

Console: PC Games

Part 2 of this adventure game is way more exciting than its original where there is mostly taking and there wasn't any audio that is in this game.

You get out of the state and visit many more and get some general knowledge of the places you visit.  Most of the time at the end you feel like a maid and not a Friend joining this trip because your doing all the work with either as a group of with each member of the Family.

There is no problem finding your way, except for when your reach Area 51 - combine the brochures and then give one of the packs to Stan (the Dad).
