Escape the Lost Kingdom

Escape the Lost Kingdom is a new hidden object game from Gogii that has you solving a bunch of ancient riddles and puzzles in order to reunite with your family and find the way out of the Egyptian ruins.

In Escape the Lost Kingdom you can find everything you like about hidden object genre. So, there are a great number of hidden object scenes that will strike you with their good challenge. Usually the puzzles and mini-games are intricate there, but if you are stuck with this or that task you can always skip it or use a hint. This game is one of those that can boast of its rationality. The puzzles are logically placed to the game and in there are no items that do not belong to the main theme.   

Whereas Escape the Lost Kingdom’s storyline itself is expressive enough to excite you, the graphics, however, are not perfect. In spite of the fact that this is the first casual game to include 3D game animation, the developers didn’t managed to avoid roughness. Sometimes the color is too dark and the graphics suffer from grainy effect there. Thus, the third dimension makes some items are too vague and practically invisible. Initially 3D was a fine twist on this gameplay, but did not add a lot to this title. Unfortunately, the voice acting is so awkward that make us search for the mute button.

Still, Gogii gave us a decent adventure game because it was really fun to play. It has a really intriguing plot, challenging gameplay, there is enough features fresh from the very outset up to the end. So we hope that the developers will tackle the weak points in the sequel to this title. If they managed to do the corrections of mistakes, they will have a truly superb game on their hands.
