Faircroft's Antiques: The Forbidden Crypt

[i]Faircroft Antiques[/i] is in my opinion one of the best hidden object series on Steam (and outside Steam as well), with its games having substantially good writing and an entertaining storyline, plus they are among the longest HOGs out there, each offering around 10h of pure fun. [h1]Intro[/h1] The games follow the adventures of Mia Faircroft - a young art restorer who travels all around the world and helps people refurbish their antiques, but also mends their hearts with her positive and kind personality. In [i]Faircroft's Antiques: The Forbidden Crypt[/i] she is summoned together with her best friend Maria to restore the cathedral of the quaint Italian town of Porto Nacosti, but soon enough she gets trapped in the dark secrets of the town’s most influential family who also happens to own the crypt and all the mysteries buried inside. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2786494141 [h1]Gameplay[/h1] [i]Faircroft's Antiques: The Forbidden Crypt[/i] is an old-s...

I enjoyed this relaxing hidden object game set in Italy.

Recommended for HOG addicts only. The characters waffle on far far too much I got bored of reading what they droned on about pretty quickly, if there's a story in there then it's like a needle in the haystack of drivel and I couldn't be bothered to bore myself to death to see what the plot is. The HOGs are of good quality, there is an ability to scroll-zoom in to 1/9th of the image, there are also a few spot the differences and jigsaw puzzles.

If you have played games like this you know what you can expect Great story, visuals, gameplay, replayability Get all the games in a bundle and you are set I turn off the music and listen to a podcast while i play

Another great Boomzap game! The Forbidden Crypt has a fun story, a good formula and challenging puzzles. Can't wait for another in the series.

Gorgeous art style, beautiful music, great story, and likeable characters. I already bought the rest in the series. I should mention that this is not challenging - it's more story based and while the puzzles etc are fun, they are not challenging at all. There is a lot of variety though. That said, it's far too long. It took me 13 hours to complete this, a whopping 20 chapters. Usually hidden object games are about 5-8 hours and this one, unfortunately, outstayed it's welcome. At least the last six chapters should have been cut, the story just kept going (unnecessarily) and the puzzles etc became completely random and unrelated to what the scene was about. Even the story began to fall apart by being dragged out so much. I regret having to say something negative, it's a fantastic game but while the first 2/3 is excellent, it's just far too long.

Super casual, fun story, different types of puzzles, good pacing.
