New York Mysteries: Power of Art Collector's Edition

EHHHHHHHH......... I really liked everything they had going in the previous games. Especially the ones before they made a new "Nancy Drew" looking Laura and a Shaggyfoot Will. Now Laura is back to looking like her old self (and much older too) and... WILL IS GONE. >.> But that's not all that's gone. Actually everything that made this series good? THAT [i]FEEL[/i]? It's gone too. This one [i]feels[/i] odd and not like the others at all. It [i]feels[/i] like it's either tired or it was just put together with nothing of substance behind it. I nearly forgot what the story was even about and YOU NEVER forget what the mystery was about!!! I also didn't give a damn about the new characters they put in. They were on screen for one moment and then... Done and gone. They even had a "replacement" for Will.............. ALL THE WAY AT THE END!!! WHY?! Where is WILL WITH HIS FREEZY CROSSBOW?! Okay that "replacement" guy got some awesome moves n stuff... But it's off screen... And why was he inserted last minute again........? And don't get me started on Mini-Games. They are all......... The ones that take 100x MULTIPLE moves to even solve a portion!!!!! Okay, some H.O.…

This is a little different from the other New York Mysteries games but its still good regardless

This a good game. Great graphics and puzzles. I did enjoy it.

Almost all of this sub-type of the hidden object genre, allow the player to replay all mini-games from the menu after the game is over, for enjoyment or to UNLOCK AN ACHIEVEMENT. Not this one. For the most difficult achievement of the game, the corresponding mini-game is only playable near the end of one of the three chapters. This mini-game is time-based and it is tight! This means either players will not unlock the achievement, will perform the manual saves and reloading from the same spot to repeatedly try the mini-game, or the will have to play 1/2 hour or more repeatedly to try and beat the mini-game time. That sucks. I recommend the ~250,000 achievement hunters on Steam to NOT buy the game until this issue is fixed! Also, the bonus chapter (different protagonist) is between the original game chapters, so the protagonist changes twice during playthrough.

great game

Another excellent addtion to the New York Mysteries. If you like the predecessors, you'll like this.
