    Overview These are mostly older style HOG games that usually sport outdated graphics where you'll be straining your eyes to spot a certain object. I'm not exactly a fan of HOGs that only allow you look for 1-4 items at a time, but the price is hard to beat at $.5/game. No replayability so far except for that annoying competitive one. No option to skip text. FBI 2 crashed once. Not a fan of the faint white symbols everywhere determining what you can do when you can just barely see them -…

    Major technical issues with the [url=http://steamcommunity.com/app/493580/discussions/0/135511757692495193/]text display render these games unplayable for me. Might be different on other systems (I'm running XP SP3 32-bit, and XP is listed in the system requirements on the store page), but I have no clues on what's causing the issue. Trying to search for a fix elsewhere online just led me to various other forum threads of the developers ignoring customers' requests for technical support.

    HEADS UP! Half of the games in this bundle won't run on many systems (I'm running windows 7) just read reviews. Very disappointed in Steam for not supporting or helping with this issue. They don't answer any disputes in the discussion threads. There must be a solution, but they are not answering any of the complaints or questions. Even if on sale, it is theft on some level.I wish they would fix or change the computer requirements to address what's needed to make these games run! Update: After…

    I love HOGs, and I play a lot of them, so I bought this pack when I was running low on new adventures in this genre and wanted some more. Each of the games in this collection takes about an hour and a half, although they range in quality. Some of the games have far better interface than others and there are certainly some 'duds' in the writing department. If you find this pack on-sale and love HOGs, it can certainly be worth the money. Most of games aren't as interesting as many of the other…

    Several of the games don't work; they either don't launch, they crash and erase all of my saved progress, and some objects that are necessary to move to the next stage have game-breaking bugs that don't allow me to interact with them.

    you need to download d3dx9_39.dll from dll-files.com, then download both 32 and 64 bit, then go into your computer folder, go into windows c then go to windows folder and place the 64 bit in the system32 folder and place the 32 bit into SysWOW64 folder after that all five none workable games should work

    very nice hidden object bundle. the games do have mini puzzles in them, but if you can't figure them out you are able to skip them after about 3 minutes which is a good. I enjoy not having to wait for your energy to refill or having to spend money to use hints. I have really enjoyed playing these hidden object games. I have only had to skip 2 puzzples.

    So I'll review each game as I play them, assuming I can push through. I decided to start with "FBI : Paranormal Case", and, woo, boy, where do I begin? The music for every area is the same track on a loop, which gets old REALLY quickly. I assume it's the entire music because it became so grating after a few scenes that I just had to turn it off to spare my sanity. The background audio (i.e., nature sound effects) for each area is about - at most - 10 seconds worth, also on loop. Despite that,…

    I was very excited about this game, as I felt it was a good deal and I generally like hidden object games; however upon installation I found none of the games would run. It would load the game selection screen and when I chose a game it would crash, giving me an error popup. None of the games in the pack would run, I tried each individually. I also tried disabling my Steam overlay and changing my screen resolution settings, but the game still would not run. I would caution buyers to test the…

    These games are only any good if your monitor is the size of a large TV! Some of the items you have to find are so small that, even when zoomed in, they're difficult to see. Item descriptions are inconsistent too. A drum could be an instrument, a petrol can or a barrel depending on who wrote that scene! I've also had to quit a couple of the games because they're broken and don't let you go past a certain point. It's a shame because they could be such good games, but trying to search for items…

    Story lines not great, repetitive hidden object screens, poor graphics make some impossible to find without using a hint but most frustrating of all is the mini games. lots of sliding puzzles that are impossible to complete as they don't work properly even though i could see the solution the pieces wouldn't move or would only move one way then get stuck again then work again. have to wait 5 mins to skip the mini games too. not worth it.

    I'll be updating this review as I play each game in the bundle. Medford Asylum: Paranormal Case - Cheesy, but probably the best in the pack. Haunted House Mysteries - Cheesy, but also not terrible. FBI: Paranormal Case - Ridiculous X-Files knockoff that apparently thinks Area 51 is in Arizona and not Nevada. Secret Case: Paranormal Investigation - I think this might be a sequel/spinoff to FBI: Paranormal Case, but doesn't look like it at first because of a wonky translation from the French dev…

    This is probably the single greatest thing you can buy on Steam. I'll sum up each game with a 1-2 sentence mini-review. Statue of Liberty: Slightly more exciting than the David Copperfield special. Secret Case: Paranormal Investigation: This one was a real turd. Didn't bother finishing it. Hidden Files: Echoes of JFK: I don't remember if they said who killed JFK, but it was one of those stupid "The public must never know the truth" endings. Jack the Ripper: Letters From Hell: You know your…

    For point and click lovers, you get a crap load of games outta this. Not the highest in quality, but they all keep the same level of elements, so if you like one, you like em all. I've enjoyed plugging away slowly at these games. I liked the ease of the hint system and found it overall challeneging enough for me that i had fun and only got annoyed once.

    Hidden Object - 12 in 1 bundle is a large-scale compilation aimed squarely at fans of classic hidden object adventures who value variety and volume over innovation. Developed by Games for All and published by Mzone, the bundle packages twelve standalone hidden object games into a single purchase, each offering its own short mystery, setting, and cast of characters. Rather than presenting itself as one cohesive experience, the collection feels more like a digital anthology, inviting players to…

    Wait for a Sale I had quite a bit of fun with the ones that I did enjoy and could easily recommend this. There are a few stinkers in the pack, but at least half of them were pretty good and enjoyable and I could easily recommend this to somebody who enjoys HOGs and/or puzzles. There's nothing here that reinvents the wheel and most of them are pretty dated, but it's still an enjoyable time nonetheless. My biggest issue is that two games broke and I would've had to redo an hour or more on each…

    I for sure did not expect that kind of amazing story telling in a Hidden Object game but this bundle definitely delivered! Everything from conspiracy theories to brutal murder to Rocky Horror Picture Show variations. I had great fun playing them all. They are rather "simple" at times and they are not as polished as others are but whoever coded and designed them enjoyed their work greatly and that helps looking past the few short comings.

Those are where the true history is in all of the games.

    The one of the twelve games i played was the Frankenstein... it was horribly sexist. Like completely and utterly sexist. Not sure about the other games but i've heard alot of people can't play half of the games. I personally haven't tried. As far as gameplay goes, the games do not look great. don't run well, and half of the Hidden Objects are literally so blended in that you have to use a hint. I would just look into the Big Fish games for HOG.

    first I should mention that I ended up getting this on the latest steam sale for around .65 cents so it's hard to not like something that was so cheap. So far I've played all the way through two of the games and I found both of them to be fun and the story that they wove around the hidden object and other puzzles was at least entertaining, I actually found myself reading a lot of the story instead of just skipping it to get to the next puzzle like I did when I first started playing them.…

    I bought these because it seemed like a really good deal, but these are so boring and repetitive, badly designed and just plain ugly. I finished 4 games hoping some of them would be different, but they were pretty awful. I might go back and finish the other 8 if I'm extremely bored, but since there are no achievements, I don't feel compelled to do so.

    The bundle includes 12 hidden-object games. The games cover a variety of themes, ranging from detective stories to the supernatural to horror, and more. The games included aren’t the most recent ones, but that doesn’t mean they’re bad. First of all, it’s a matter of taste, and obviously some titles are better than others, but since this bundle is often on sale for €0.89, you can’t expect much more. Even at full price, though, the value for money is excellent. Perhaps the only thing missing is…
