As a die-hard hog enthusiast, my first impression was absolutely thrilling! Wow, just wow! For a hog game, the plot is captivating, and the visuals along with the 3D models are nothing short of stunning. Normally, these casual games can look pretty shabby, but this one takes the cake—it's truly magnificent and impressive! Even for a hog, the plot is absolutely thrilling and brilliantly crafted! I have never played a hog game with a coherent and well-written plot more than this. It makes me want to dive in and play even more! The puzzles also are incredibly creative. It's my absolute second favorite, right after Nightfall Mysteries: Black Heart! The excitement just never fades! ₊˚⊹ᰔ You can find more detailed recommendations on my curator page [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45628294/]Raghad's Choice . ₊˚｡ﾟʚɞ•━━┈꒰ა ⊱✦⊰ ໒꒱┈•━━ ʚɞ ₊˚｡ﾟ

I've never played a hidden object game before, but the setting peaked my interest. I'm kinda obsessed. Had a blast with this and looking at the other reviews, I'm bummed that's there's nothing out there like this expect for the sequels. I'm in for all three now.

Replaying this game to prepare for part 3 release, and I forgot to ever review it! This & part 2 are the best HOGs ever made. Super interesting story/mystery, puzzles that are challenging yet not frustrating, beautiful environments, even the music is excellent. Only negative is that no other HOG that you play will ever compare. You've been warned.

Reddit got me interested in this game and they said it was one of the spookiest. My take: Yes it's spooky and not annoying jump scares. The story is super interesting so it's certainly a gem. Long story short, the protagonist got news from her sister and then she goes to investigate it and then finds out the harsh past behind her mother's demise. Also finds out she has another family member. A powerful family is involved in the whole ordeal and supernatural witchcraft from the looks of it. You don't understand who's the actual enemy and i liked the fact that having a second part is purposeful really. The game questions your sanity and the background's of the characters. There is also very interesting collectibles. The HOG scenes have nice mini puzzles which are innovative. The OST is superb, subtle sadness and spookiness. For a very old game, this has better 3D animations and good art than modern ones. There are a lot of locations to explore and I feel like there has been a lot of time invested into this game. I bought both part 1 and 2 on the spooky sale 2024 at a very low price. The downside is the achievements which are kinda bugged, the achievement description does not match the task you have to do. There are threads in the discussions which handles the achievement getting and if you are interested you can refer to them. For me the ones that require you to not pause the game is not fair because I can't find time for this juggling a job, house chores, relationship etc. I don't know if i will try for the bugged one, a bit reluctant but i definitely would play the next part for the story!
