Mystery P.I.: The Curious Case of Counterfeit Cove

The traditional classic hidden object games are becoming rare and there are times when we all just want a simple HOG without all the back and forth of other games. Developers from PopCap Games made the great hidden object game that perfectly matches this request. Mystery P.I. The Curious Case of Counterfeit Cove is exactly what you need! It is a straight-up Hidden Object Game with some pretty easy mini-games in between. The Mystery P.I series are always quality games, they always work and are absolutely worth playing. But we think that sometimes these games would be better if they had some interaction with characters instead of just straight HOG.

The lack of the actual storyline doesn’t make this game worse. However, you are playing the role of the person hired by the town elders to save New England seaside village from ruining. The good thing is that the hidden object scenes are clearly defined and beautifully depicted. The spirit of the New England countryside is true to life and you can actually feel it. Mystery P.I. The Curious Case of Counterfeit Cove looks lovely with its clear, bright and colorful graphics and interesting topics and scenery. Music is not annoying, which is good. Mini-games include Mahjong, Match-3 and Jigsaw, they are various, challenging and unique.

It needs to be said that Mystery P.I. The Curious Case of Counterfeit Cove is excellent for the beginner, but far too easy for addicts. It doesn’t make you think much, it’s just a nice game to sit and relax with! Overall, if straight hidden object games are your thing, you should definitely try it!
