Family Vacation California

If you are looking for a bright and lighthearted Hidden Object game suitable for the whole family, Family Vacation: California created by Meridian4 perfectly meets all these requirements. If you’re sick and tired of crime-and-murder stories or regret sunny summer days this single autumn morning or maybe evening, this title can give you a breath of fresh air.

In marked contrast to the spooky and creepy Hidden Object games, Family Vacation: California looks rather unusual with all its cheerful scenes and cartoon-like graphics.  This hasteless and sometimes even sluggish gameplay is very simple, featuring one hidden object puzzle after the other. Although some of the objects to find are quite small, it is not a problem to figure out all of them. The mini-games won’t be challenging for adults, but will provide good thinking experience for infants.

Technically, Family Vacation California functions well enough. The developers tried hard to make their game free from any irritating bugs or stumbling blocks. The hint-system is well-organized and serves without any problems. 

Unfortunately, Family Vacation: California have no voice acting. Nevertheless, this fact doesn’t prevent player from following the storyline. However, to our mind voice acting would have made the game more attractive for children.

Family Vacation: California is definitely a family title, creating the perfect slow and lazy atmosphere of summer holidays. If you’re a family man, this is a nice game to play with your children together. But if you choose this game for your own experience, you won’t find there nothing challenging.
