Hidden Histories: The Principality

Extremely odd little game--I got it on sale but even that price was too much I think. I love the idea of the game, the layout of the scenes, even the music which is suited for the weird objects and categories. The problem is the objects can be really strange and hard to see and you only get 6 hints per scene. There isn't anyway to keep track of your progress--every scene has levels indicated by locked padlocks and if you finish a level, move on but come back all levels still show a locked padlock and if you click one you've already played you can just play it again. I guess a paper and pen would help you keep track if you wanted. There are a few bugs I've encountered: once the hint (which "sucks in" the area you need) kept indicating this was the spot but clicking all over never found the item. Another scene--actually several--I clicked the hint and the counter showed I used it but no indicator showed me anything. When you complete a scene you get a Congratulations! and a Trophy...but some scenes I finished there was no fanfare, just leave. I still am giving the game a thumbs up because you can have fun looking for things and that's the point.
