    Amazing Adventures: The Forgotten Ruins is a solid casual game from PopCap, master of the genre. It doesn't offer anything new, but it is presented well and includes some genuinely addictive gameplay.

    Amazing Adventures: The Forgotten Ruins isn't particularly amazing and neither is it much of an adventure, but it is an inoffensive and quite absorbing little game of hide and seek that presents a simple premise with stylish and pleasant visuals, an appealing theme and a solid gameplay mechanic, at a modest price to boot.

    The lack of grouping levels does it a real disservice, and once again that it's a remix of an old PC game with a new title isn't enamouring. But the same hypnotic power is present here, and even now, having played the stupid thing to death, I've a horrible suspicion that if I loaded it again I'd end up playing all over again.

There is a relaxing charm to the game and it certainly is not for everyone, but for those who just want some fodder to enjoy or a nice, quick, easy to pick up and put down experience. I think this game can offer that experience.… Expand
