Maestro: Notes of Life Collector's Edition

It seems we have entered into the epoch of “the second installments”. The developers stopped indulging us with their new game projects but they began to provide us with the second, the third and even the fourth chapters in their most successful series. Some developers still do this fine, while others just try to cash on their good reputation and our respectful treatment for them. So what about Maestro: Notes of Life, the second chapter in the illustrious Hidden Object game series from ERS G-Studio’s?

To start with, the story of the young crazy prodigy violinist, whose evil music ruins people’s lives, sounds gloomy, but still rather intriguing and fresh. In spite of its original plot, Maestro: Notes of Life literally follows traditional Hidden Object style. So if you are looking for something extraordinary, you might be disappointed with this title a little bit.

Nevertheless, the veteran of this type of games will appreciate these tricky puzzles and clever mini-games. All the tasks are doable never frustrating but can be skipped. The hint system works well without any flaws. Honestly, you needn’t any hints as everything is clear. Only once you might feel like using a hint – in the first hidden object scene just to see how the interactive items work.

Visually, the game is gorgeous, where every detail is perfect. When you look at these hidden object scenes, you realize just how much they put into them. The title of this game obliges the music background to be wonderful. You will surely like its moody tunes, proper sound effects and nice voice-overs.

Summing up, Maestro: Notes of Life is really remarkable and outstanding game. The artwork and music are polished, the plot is unusual, the gameplay is exciting. Real must have for any Hidden Object games lover. Happy gaming!
