Love & Death: Bitten

If you have already despaired to find somehow enjoyable hidden object game, we hurry up to soothe your soul. Not long ago PlayFirst has presented us its all-new premise under the title Love & Death: Bitten. Judging by the title, a sugary romance storyline is guaranteed for you. Still, we are not of those who believe bright cover and prefer to trust our own eyes.

The more you progress this game the more you will realize that the plot is wretched a little bit. It is based on a classical tale of a forbidden love between evil but handsome vampire and charming country girl. Will love or death win? The answer is clear, we suppose. However, this title makes you solve piles of intriguing puzzles and challenging mini-games. Love & Death: Bitten obviously defines your goals but doesn’t give away too many details on how you are to accomplish them. Although some players may find themselves bewildered more than once, the half-word style of narration stimulates your brain in pleasing ways. Surely, if you are petty stumped with one or another task, you are easily able to use quickly rechargeable hints.

The opportunity to play as two different characters is a real spin on a gameplay. Actually, it is a nice way to navigate the game that adds on the fun element greatly. It is nice to know that one character can help you, while you are playing as the other. Love & Death: Bitten can burst with pride upon its gorgeous and stunning graphics and entertaining puzzle scenes. Nevertheless, we are disappointed with the ending as we were hoping for something really incredible. Well, and the story is not terribly fresh…but when it is so brilliantly drawn and looks so polished, it becomes a minor issue.

All in all, this game will be a significant addition to any hidden object adventure library and will give a several hours of captivating gameplay. Thumbs up for PlayFirst!
