    So this is a hidden object game, heavily inspired by Where is Waldo. The scenes are full of life, million things are happening, every pixel does something - and the scenes are getting bigger. There is a hint for each object, but some of them are still tricky to find.

    Graphics are... I think this might be subjective. I think it could use a bit more complexity, but I'm not complaining.    So this is a hidden object game, heavily inspired by Where is Waldo.

    Graphics are... I think this might be subjective. I think it could use a bit more complexity, but I'm not complaining. These scenes are masterfully crafted, and it takes minutes to explore each scenes, only to understand all the things that are happening. However after a few maps the game itself feels quite repetitive: always the same objects to find.
    Soundtrack is very generic and bland... but there are a lot of other sound effects (the first time it can be also fun to explore them on each scenes).
    The loading times are surprisingly long considering the gameplay... but not unbearable.

    I was a bit disappointed when I first opened the game, and it gave me 3 options, but 2 of them can be unlocked with DLC only... the main story isn't too long. On the other hand there are lots of online community created maps, available for free. I don't mind picking up this game, though won't be replaying it. Nor buy any of the DLCs.    … Expand

    What really makes the game is Map Editor mode, where you can create your own maps and share them online. This is much more worth your time than the main mode. Many of the creations already available show great inventiveness with limited assets – things like cross-time football games or ‘Little Yharnam’, a Bloodborne-themed map. Hidden Through Time is basic, but at a low price (£6.49), it’s worth fooling around with if you’re still fond of Wally. [Issue#174, p.92]

    Hidden Through Time is a pleasing game of spot-and-find that will give you hours of head-scratching entertainment. With a growing set of online creations and a neat map editor, this is also a promising catalyst for a close-knit community. Even with the slight hiccups it has, the modest price tag for the game is wholly worth it.

    The controls are at least very simple, meaning almost anyone can enjoy this game's simple pleasures. That being said, the map editor, in which you can construct your very own hidden object puzzles, is a little messy. It offers you a fair amount of flexibility, but it's not very intuitive to navigate. Still, it's a neat addition to an otherwise plain package. This is a hidden object puzzler that does exactly what it says on the tin, and you can't argue with that.
