Good Introduction to Hidden Object Games November 17, 2008
Viola Majesty is troubled by odd events at her Manor. She's been hearing strange noises, items are missing, and objects seem to be moving on their own. Desperate, she hires Ghost Hunters, Inc. to discover what is going on at Majesty Manor. As one of the members of the team you are given fifteen days to solve the case by looking for hidden objects in 19 rooms and eliminating 15 suspects. At the end of those 15 days, you will uncover the culprit in a final, fast paced round.
While "G.H.O.S.T. Hunters, the Haunting of Majesty Manor" is loosely wrapped around a mystery, players are not really actively involved in solving the mystery - they do not question suspects, find clues, or play any part in really solving the mystery - the game itself does all that for you. What players do is look for hidden objects in various locations. The hidden objects can be obvious - for example if you are looking for a tie, look for a man wearing a tie. Other items are a bit more difficult to find - for example a bat could be either a baseball bat or the mammal.
"G.H.O.S.T. Hunters, the Haunting of Majesty Manor" is a good game for players new to hidden object games. Unlike some hidden object games, there is more than enough time to solve each puzzle. There are also plenty of hints and a chance to get even more hints by locating batteries hidden in certain scenes. You do lose time if you click too fast or too randomly on objects, but there's no need to do either since there's so much time allowed. Once you find all the required objets you can either move on or stay for the "bonus" round which simply means find the remaining objects in each location (you have to find a set number of objects in each room to move to the next level). Unlike other hidden object games (such as the Mystery Case Files Series) there are no real bonus sections involving puzzles like jigsaw puzzles - once you finish one level you move on to the next level. Even though you only have five minutes to solve each puzzle in the final round (which eliminates suspect after suspect), I found it incredibly easy to solve. Finally, while I usually find music in hidden object games add a lot of atmosphere to the game, the music in this game kept cutting in and out, disappearing completely for large stretches of the game, which means the majority of the game was played in silence (even the meter used for hints didn't always have sound, which made it hard to use the hints).
While "G.H.O.S.T. Hunters, the Haunting of Majesty Manor" can be played over and over because the hidden objects and guilty party change each time you play it, seasoned hidden object game players will quickly get tired of the game. However, this is an excellent game for players new to hidden object games.
 100% hidden object fun, and suitable for the hearing impaired October 11, 2008
"G.H.O.S.T Hunters" is 100% a hidden object game--no minigames, no puzzles, NOTHING else. If you like hidden object fun, this is for you! The pictures are stuffed full, yet the hidden objects aren't too small (at least, not to me). An unusual aspect of the game is the use of a "spectrometer" to give hints; when activated, the tool shows more lights and faster clicking the closer you are to a hidden object.
Because of the visual aspect of the spectrometer, this game is highly suitable for playing by the hearing impaired or with speakers off. I found myself turning the sound up when I caught the whispery voices, although I never could figure out what they were saying. LOL. In that case, I wished for captions too, although it's entirely possible that they weren't saying anything, and, certainly, they weren't saying anything noteworthy for the game. As far as I know, the soundtrack was just spooky sounds, footsteps, etc.
If you don't like HOGs (hidden object games), don't bother, but if you do, especially if you like them pure, this is a can't miss!!

I am a big fan of search and find games and this one is wonderful! Not only do you get to look for different objects, but it also involves ghosts and hauntings. A fantastic search and find game for all ages!

I BOUGHT THIS FOR A FRIEND AND FOUND MYSELF INTRIGUED ENOUGH TO PLAY IT MYSELF.NOW I FIND THAT I AM "HOOKED" . I LOVE THE CHALLENGE OF FINDING THE OBJECTS IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND LOVE THE "GHOSTLY" SOUND EFFECTS THROUGHOUT THE PLAYTIME-EVEN MY SMALL KIDS ARE INTO PLAYING IT!
Fun for a while February 8, 2008

I was very pleased with this hidden object game; but like many of these games, once you have played the game through a couple of times, it becomes less challenging and less fun. I will have to leave it alone for a month or more, before returning to play. That way, I will have forgotten many of the objects locations; and the enjoyment will return.
