Voodoo Whisperer Curse of a Legend

This is a fun hidden object game, with a major flaw. It isn't a complete story. There should be more at some point I'm sure, and the actual gameplay in having to visit some places more than once is a good mechanic. But getting to the end of the game as is and not getting to the end of the story is very annoying.

An unremarkable HOG with a bland story, a few irritating pixel hunts, and a couple nonsensical or badly optimized puzzles. I do like the spell mixing concept woven into the story, but the game as a whole is just not worth much thought.

I liked the gameplay and story of this a lot. This game has a cool mechanic which requires you to make potions and stuff in order to progress. You will probably be disappointed by the ending, completely warranted, but I wasn't. I don't mind cliffhangers. Not a lot of replay value despite the fun. No collections or achievements. Still worth playing once if you like HOGs. 6/10

short but fun

tldr: an old 'hard on the eyes' game with a missing ending that i would not recommend to any hidden objects game enjoyer aka If you're really that curious about the story just look it up on youtube or something. i hate to dog on game creators but this came out in 2014 so i'm sure i have a little bit of leeway to be a little mean with this, so where do i start? the graphics: the 3d work is ultimately not bad especially for the time in game development with smaller companies/creators however pretty much everything in this game is covered in this like spiderweb texture that makes it hard to see things- yahknow what else makes it hard to see in general? the lights in this game, the lights in this game are blinding to the point i think even people with better eyesight would develop a nasty headache while playing this game (because i sure did) and as well they sometimes straight up block items you need to find in order to progress. gameplay: besides what i said about the weird spiderweb texture on everything and the blinding lights it's got pretty standard hidden object story game mechanics the spell mechanics are pretty neat though not exactly exclusive as i've played much better games with similar mechanics and as well i've played a few other games with crafting mechanics but it was also pretty ok. the use of voodoo: i won't touch too much on this, it's an old game and while i'm not very educated on this sorta thing i believe this game has a decent, while almost 100% not a good in terms of accurate, representation of the religious practice aka it's not just shown as just some evil bad thing, although it being used by our white protag (and grandmother) is where most of the 'iffy-ness' comes from, but like i said i'm not educated in it and this is from 2014 i just wanted to briefly put in my two cents. story: it's a decent story albeit a bit boring for what the subject matter is, there is a much better game that has a very similar story to this game which i can't for the life of me remember the title of, so much so that i had to remind myself pretty much every time a new area was unlocked that i have not played this game before. the ending: like i said in the tldr this version of the game does not contain the ending it just cuts off but with how predictable these stories are it almost definitely was just the protag defeating the evil woman shown at the end and freeing the town, i'd check but i don't think i'm even bothered enough to look up the ending on youtube which isn't really the fault of the dev the story just didn't click with me but yahknow. voice acting was decent, music and sounds were just really loud even at lower settings. one nit pick i have with this game that luckily isn't a very common issue with more modern games is that if your objective is in a different room it will use an entire hint just to tell you to leave the room youre in, not gamebreaking just annoying. uh i can't really think of anything else i'd like to touch upon but like i said just look up this game on youtube don't waste your money like i did it's not anything groundbreaking, i wish i wouldn't have left this sitting on my account for so long before i played it, maybe i could've got a refund lmao.

this game doesn't have any closure at the end and some of the items in the Hidden object scenes are difficult to locate.
