Ancient Spirits - Colombus' Legacy

Are you doubt about your vigilance? Ancient Spirits: Columbus’ Legacy is a good way to check your eyesight and other skills. Cerasus Media, the developers of a just released hidden object game, offers you to clear up the secret of Christopher Columbus’ lost ship.

Ancient Spirits: Columbus’ Legacy is a pure hidden object title with a fast-paced gameplay, many scenes to investigate and the occasional riddles to solve. The game is executed in photo-realistic style, rather reminiscent of cartoonish one, and though items can be a bit vague and unclear as a result, the levels are typically neat that it is not a great problem. In fact, the whole thing there tends to be on the easy side of the hidden object difficulty mode. However, it is not a simple walk in the park, but quite challenging point-and-click experience.

Ancient Spirits: Columbus’ Legacy takes you just three hours to complete, still it is a solid game. The object searches involves more variety than ordinary hidden object titles do. Written descriptions for items are really requires more searching efforts than just primitive silhouetted images. The puzzles are not numerous there and, aside from one tricky math riddle, they are all pretty easy but surprisingly pleasant to solve. The usual skip button is at your service there but you do not find yourself needing to use it.

The great spin on the gameplay is a “scrolling” option that let you scroll left and right with the mouse to see the entire scene. The only complaint is that the whole game is fairly standard: cartoonish hand-drawn graphics and simple puzzles. All in all, it is rather interesting to try.
