Hidden Objects Quartet app review: put your sleuthing skills to use

Introduction

Do you fancy yourself a bit of a sleuth? Do you think you've got what it takes to be a detective and find hidden objects? If so you can give the Hidden Objects Quartet app a try. This app can be played on your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone and features four different modes of play for you to explore. No matter which one you pick, you'll need to keep your eyes open for the objects that have been cleverly hidden within.

Not Your Typical Hidden Object Experience

What I like about this app right from the start is the variety it offers. You are basically getting four hidden object-style games in here, all of which feel and look completely different. The one thing they do share is the fact you are looking for hidden objects in each. I think this variety of game modes is exactly why this app has an almost-perfect score from users. It is a new release but already seems to be making a big splash. Users comment on the fabulous graphics, incredible gameplay, and the polished and professional look of it. It can even be enjoyed with kids.

I have to agree with each and every one of the users with the positive comments. I’m already a bit biased as I love hidden object games but this one really struck a chord with me and I find its one I will now keep going back to.

 

The Gameplay

So we have discussed the fact you get four different modes of hidden object gameplay, but what are they? The four games are Zombie Escape, Detective Holmes: Trap for the Hunter, Time Trap, and Mayan Mystery. No matter which one you pick you begin the game with a bit of a backstory so you know what the game is about. There is quite a bit of reading so if you are planning on letting the kids play they will either need to be able to read or you’ll need to play along with them.

I find that each of the games are not only a different look and feel but they change in the difficulty level too, so that gives you plenty to experiment with and challenge yourself with. I think the graphics deserve a mention because no matter which one you’re playing they are beautiful. The soundtrack and sound effects are also fantastic and really add to the atmosphere of that particular scene.
