Gaming / Computer Games / Mystery P.I. - Pop Cap PC Game Review

If you have read any of my reviews, you fill find I love puzzle games. That is mainly due to the fact, I have poor controller coordination. However, that is no problem with PC game -Mystery P.I.

Mystery P.I. is something like "Where is Waldo" or "I Spy". You are basically searching for a list of items hidden within a picture. With Mystery P.I there are two options. The first is "Finding the Lottery Ticket". Grandma Rose has lost her winning lottery ticket and it is up to you to find it. You have 11 hours to find it and given a town map.

There are a total of 20 levels within each set of maps you get. Within these levels are keys to unlocking the next part of the game, which is searching for another set of items.

With each level you are provided a "Hint" button. However, use this only as a last option because you will be deducted points. You might want to consider using this feature if you feel you are taking too much time searching. If you complete the level under a certain time limit you will receive bonus points.

When you complete a level, you will have a matching game. It can vary in style. Here you can earn extra points as well.

One big tip for getting extra points: find about 4 or more items on the screen. Click on all of them in a row to collect bonus points. These are called "Speed Bonus".

The only real downside with this game is that it's really short! For $20, I was hoping for more. I was able to complete the entire game in just a few hours. Plus, as the game progresses, it just gets too easy.
