The Dark Hills of Cherai

The Dark Hills of Cherai, a well-organized hidden object game from BigFishGames, familiarizes us with a designing plot and carries away in the world of mystery. As the main hero of this story you are to track down the legendary treasure of Cheri and save your family.

The gameplay has a classical structure but is notable for its great replay value. There are a lot of intricate episodes and the objects are well hidden but not unfairly though. On this occasion you may choose untimed mode to play at your pleasure. The hint system is great, you can skip mini games, and the setting is unique. But most of the tasks are enjoyable and worth to play. The dialogue makes sense and the sense of adventure is absolutely delightful. The “messages” you get as you click objects preclude the need for frequent use of a walkthrough. Lots of playing time; and every replay would be a bit different because it would be virtually impossible to precisely duplicate your “journey”.

Frankly, The Dark Hills of Cherai game reminds us a lot of the Treasure Master series, where you accumulate tools and have to perform actions to advance. Still, this title has some twists, for example, you are able to switch the hero multiple times in the game in order to get the proper tools, as the characters don’t have access to all of what they need. To crown it all, bright clear graphics and pleasing sounds make the issue rather polished and nice.

In conclusion, Dark Hills of Cherai may be called an excellent game if not somewhat confusing points. Sometimes it keeps balking, stopping the download and takes a long time to save. Overall, it is paragon of a good quality, showing us that hidden object genre moves in the right direction.
