Gabenwood: 99 Hidden Bucks

A hidden-object game blending Steam, pop-culture references, and american political commentary. It will be about 15 to 30 minutes.

A hidden object game about Steam, pop culture references and political statements? I dunno what this was meant to be, it was interesting for the half hour I played it. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45773453/]My Curator Page[/url]

Another gatefold children's book style, Where’s Waldo hidden object game, satirizing the almighty dollar/the Steam economy et al with a crunchy 90s indie-comic aesthetic. Finding the legitimately hidden dollar-signs throughout the panel is not the absolute worst waste of 15 minutes, perhaps?, but the irony of charging $1 for this very slight diversion given its anti-capitalist bent is likely lost on the developer. Skip it. [b]Cons:[/b] [list] [*] Depiction of 44 is [i]suspect[/i] [/list]

Find $ in multiple artworks. This one must be first of Gabenwood series. Camera moving is very sensitive. And parts of pictures did not change color when every $ was found in the region like in others. Blurry main menu bacckground, thought the whole picture would be like that. Time to 100%: 15 minutes.

**Rating: 8/10** I picked this up during a sale for basically pocket change, and honestly? It's one of the most charming little hidden object games I've played in a while. Sometimes you just need a game that doesn't demand 100 hours of your life, and this one delivers exactly that. **The Good:** - **The premise is wonderfully absurd.** An evil scientist threw a bunch of dollar bills into a black hole, and now you have to travel through black-and-white hand-drawn locations finding all 99 of them to save the universe . It's silly, it knows it's silly, and it leans into it. - **The art style is unique.** Everything is black-and-white hand-drawn artwork that actually shifts into color once you've found all the hidden symbols in a level . It's simple but effective, and there's something satisfying about watching the scene fill with color as you complete it. - **Pop culture references everywhere.** The game is packed with little nods and jokes scattered throughout the locations . It keeps things entertaining while you're scanning for dollar signs. - **Perfect for short sessions.** Each level takes maybe 5-10 minutes to complete. It's the kind of game you boot up when you have 20 minute…
