AI is here but no one warns you about it. It makes the game ugly and uncomfortable to play. I played a few games of this studio before and they were much more pleasant to play from the visual standpoint. In this game AI burns eyes but the story is also a crap. Puzzles are decent but sometimes too illogical to be resolve without help or accidental click. I'm very dissapointed, this game 100% does not cost it full price. I bought it with 80% discount and even this seems too much for this AI abomination. I'm sorry, Do Games, but you lost a loyal customer.

this is a very very low recommend. it was my first hidden object game and i did have fun. but i beat the base game in 5.5hrs. also, this isnt the full game. the best ending requires the paid dlc. so they want $12 for the base game and then another $4 for the dlc. for just 5.5hrs of gameplay. granted the dlc would prob bump it up to 7 hrs but its still not worth it at full price. only on a very deep discount. as far as the gameplay itself, it was fun. nothing too convoluted. i did end up skipping a couple puzzles. mostly cause i was tired and didnt have the energy to put into them. but a vast majority of the puzzles are pretty easy. graphics are ok. theres no voice acting in it. which honestly was fine. i feel like it would have been terrible VA if was included. just the vibe you get from the game. it did crash every time i tried to exit the game too. click main menu and it would crash or freeze. and this is kind of a petty complaint but the game says its the collectors edition. looking at their other games, they all say that and none of them include the dlc with them. so im really not sure why it has the special title of collectors edition. i think if this game and the dlc are o…

Secrets of Salem: The Phantom Cab Collector’s Edition is a story-driven hidden object puzzle adventure developed and published by Do Games Limited. The game combines elements of supernatural mystery, detective fiction, and classic point-and-click puzzle solving to create an atmospheric investigation set in the eerie town of Salem.
