The Myth Seekers: The Legacy of Vulcan Review (§єǫuєᴋʜaɴ ⚶)
As is common with these types of games, we've entered the realm of mythology as we go on a journey to receive items of power from various ancient gods that are somehow still around in contemporary times.
As a story it holds up ok. Visiting various gods gives an excuse to travel around, mixing up the locations and scenes quite well. Hidden object puzzles are on the average side (as is typical), as the game leans more towards the storytelling side, but I find very few games truly deliver for me, in terms of mess scenes, so I'm not too disappointed.
Probably the biggest issue players will have with this game is the 'finish 3 hidden object puzzles in 45 seconds', and finding all morphing objects achievements. The first is brutal, until you realise you can just play on casual with no penalties for misclicks. I played on advanced, so I had to start again to smash out these two achievements.
The morphing objects are SLOW. Be prepared to sit there and stare at your screen for longer than I did, as I ended up missing three. The worst part about this game is there is no balance for morphing objects and collectables versus how many screens there are. It's random, so you could get one, or the other, or both, or none on a screen - the only way to know is to use a guide, otherwise replaying to find what you've missed is extremely frustrating.
Most of the puzzles are more of the same you see in other games, so there isn't any troubles there. Assembling items in the inventory is such a drag, I feel this mechanic is overdone, where more mess scenes would have been preferable. This is a very general gripe of mine though - I feel that way about most games in the genre.
As is part and parcel with these types of games that don't offer much in terms of game time, be sure to look for a discount if you're interested.
