Midnight Mysteries 3: Devil on the Mississippi

If you're a hidden objects game fan, this is excellent! If you get stuck, there is a guide in the game. I totally enjoyed it! I've played one other Midnight Mystery, 2, the Salem Witch Trials Game. Though it wasn't a long or real challenging game, it wasn't quite as short or relatively easy as "Devil on the Mississippi". This is a combination game, my favorite kind. It has hidden object scenes, pure puzzles, and lots of inventory objectives. I counted 9 hidden object scenes and 16 puzzles in the main game, ranging from very very easy to moderately difficult. This game will please a wide range of skill levels and ages. Even if you prefer harder games, it's still fun, just short. The story line is all over the place. The main character is Samuel Clemens, aka Mark Twain. The game touches on real happenings in Twain's life, including the off-beat, such as that he was the first writer to write on a typewriter. And more well-known facts, such as the death of his younger brother, Henry, in a steamboat explosion. And whether or not Christopher Marlowe wrote the Shakespeare plays. In real life, Clemens published a 1907 pamphlet, titled "Is Shakespeare Dead?", in which he argues that there's no way that Shakespeare could have written Shakespeare. Also, there's the real fact of Clemens' 1894 bankruptcy, which, incidentally, in real life he paid back 100% with profits from a European reading tour. The game takes these facts and mixes them up with fantasy, which got pretty funny. Such as Christopher Marlowe making a deal with Mephistopheles, trading his soul for the chance to secretly survive his knifing and write more Shakespeare plays. The game's plot line is certainly imaginative, but it's not always easy to follow all the associations unless you already know some of the real history and controversy. In this "Collector's Edition" you get a Bonus Chapter called "Memphis-topheles" - hee hee. It had 5 hidden object scenes and 5 puzzles. You also get a full-blown strategy guide built into the game. You may not need to use it much, because puzzles can be skipped, and there's a good hint system. In a nice twist, though, you have to accumulate hints. Where ever you go in the game, click on any representation of a raven. You get one hint for each raven, and there are plenty of ravens. There are fewer hidden object scenes in "Devil on the Mississippi - Collector's Edition", compared to many combination games I've played lately. It does have more puzzles, though, but as many of these puzzles are very easy, that advantage cancels out. For comparison, you can check out " Faces " or " House of 1,000 Doors: Palm of Zoroaster (Collector's Edition) ". Game extras include an opportunity for "Unlimited Hidden Object Mode". This will kick up amount of game time in a major way. You unlock this option if you discover all 70 of the four-leaf clovers hidden in all the scenes. I liked how some objects on the hidden object list are shown in green type. This means that either the item is temporarily hidden or that the name given is a little riddle. So when the list shows "letter covering", you have to find an envelope. "Walking support" is a cane. Happy Gamer

[h1]Описание:[/h1] Третья часть яищухи и автор продолжает искать себя... Сюжет стал слабее и впервые за ним вообще неинтересно следить. Вообще эта идея с писателями и их биографиями очень специфична и лучше бы сделали с героями этих писателей... Тут зевал как ниногда... Локации стали еще красивее и художнику медальку, вот только большинство локаций никак не используются (1-2 объекта подними и иди дальше), Дневник тоже скучный и ничего не раскрывает, а записи идут тупо чуть ли не копи пастой диалогов и того что мы сейчас сделали... Головоломки тоже есть интересные, а есть нелогичные и тупые. В итогеут кроме картинки и похвалить не за что... Надеюсь дальше будет лучше.

No profundo e lamacento Mississippi, algo não está certo. Um barco fantasmagórico traz à luz uma nova conspiração para os jogadores desvendarem neste novo Mistério da Meia-Noite. O fantasma de Mark Twain veio até você em busca de ajuda de um mal que o persegue na vida após a morte. Trace os passos no passado de Twain que levaram a uma vida inteira de angústia. A paixão de Twain pela história literária reacende um debate controverso sobre a verdadeira identidade de Shakespeare; a velha questão ressuscita uma série de personagens malévolos. Depois de acordar um mal inesperado, Twain se prepara para livrar seu tempo da escuridão, mas a trama só se complica. Com a ajuda de Twain, você precisa desvendar as conexões para tentar acertar a história enquanto forças perigosas se aproximam. Quem escreveu as obras de Shakespeare? E como Mark Twain foi pego em uma estranha rivalidade elisabetana todos esses anos depois?

GG.

Story too confusing and there is much reading. Many puzzles feel random. It is better then older games still but I still need to give thumb down.

Very good like the rest of the series. If it have voice acting would be a great addition and of cause a bit better graphics.

Good fun for a few hours
