A recent earthquake has revealed an ancient buried palace that was once ruled by the powerful Mithridates. The Hidden Expedition League of Preservation has sent its best archeologists to explore, but disaster strikes leaving them barely alive. Legend has it that King Mithridates believed his father died from poisoning, so he began ingesting small amounts of toxins daily with hopes of building up his immunity. Can you find the antidote to save your friends or will they suffer the same fate as the mad ruler in this exciting Hidden Object adventure?

I'm Glad That H.E.L.P. Is Still Around.
KimTwilight69
I always feel a hint of excitement when I see a sequel to this series. Even though the storylines blend into each other across the board — traveling to a remote place to find a missing colleague or artifact — this one at least is historically based. As the plot unfolds, I am becoming more interested in what will happen next. I like that I get to travel around the world, visiting distinct countries, and hence the occasional change in scenery and climate. The graphics are the typical Eipix mess: blotchy and unpolished. The adventure portion of gameplay is amateurish and offers a player minimal challenge. The rest of the gameplay left me with mixed feelings of highs and lows. The HOSs are commonplace, with many of them being traditional word lists. I did like the one in which you find items by changing the segments of drawings until complete pictures are formed. The imaginative puzzles are intelligently executed and challenging to solve, thus meeting my preference of applying some brain power on how to complete them, rather than forcing a trial-and-error solution. A noteworthy puzzle is the one in which you move and combine garden-themed squares, following a particular sequence to create an ingredient. The H.E.L.P. box — a hallmark of this series — stores your incoming messages and the historical cards. These cards, one set of your collectibles, present an informative aspect in addition to the feat of discovering them. One other set is conspicuously placed within the locations. Be on the lookout for morphing objects within the HOSs. Overall, this is a decent sequel, although it's not the best in the series. The highlights for me are the fantastic puzzles. The game is technically sound; no glitches. I suggest you play the free trial.
Not for me

I don’t like anything about this game. I found the graphics hard to identify, puzzles without instructions, and a general feeling of confusion. I won’t be buying this one. I didn’t even bother with finishing the free game. I found its puzzles boring. I really didn’t care to try to get across the rope, or fix a cross bow, etc. yuck!
Please fix!

I enjoy this series in particular. I was quite excited about playing this game. Game play, storyline, graphic are on point! You have a map, hint button as in most games. I really am enjoying this game! Except for a huge glitch...Everything works as it should during the trial game. After purchasing, you can no longer hear any speaker for any reason. Music plays in background fine so it isn’t my volume. Checked my options, those are set correctly which means it’s a glitch and we need it fixed ASAP! Love this game, will change for 3 stars to 5 stars if this gets fixed in a timely manner.
Tedious puzzles

Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy doing puzzles on these types of games. For some reason I found these puzzles unpleasant, confusing and just not a lot of fun. Irritating, too.
One of the best in the Series

I have played all Hidden Expedition games. To me they had gotten a little stale in the plot and content lately. I am glad to say that this was an original take the series I really enjoyed playing it and there were not many glitches. I would recommend play, buy, and enjoy.
Pretty good, but some puzzles confusing

I have enjoyed this series of games before, and did this one, however the directions for some of the games are very confusing.
Horrible mini games...way too complex

I love working with the HELP team, the stories and adventures are great BUT it’s no fun when you have to skip EVERY mini game. Tone it down a bit will ya? ☹️

This is my favorite series by EIPIX. I will not be discussing game features, as the magnificent KimTwilight has already done so and I don’t feel like doing it. I cannot rate this game a full 5 stars, although it was enjoyable. I love the fact cards; it’s always interesting to learn new facts especially about ancient cultures. This was an archaeological mystery adventure, with the same old storyline as we have seen many times over, but with the unique twist this developer managed to add, such as unusual inventory usage. The graphics were beautiful, although they lacked visual acuity. The game was quite short, even inclusive of the bonus adventure. There were some puzzles/mini-games where you had to use your brain, and although some of them were rotational I nevertheless enjoyed figuring them out. I had to skip one of them due to touch screen sensitivity issues. This developer never manages to upgrade their quality assurance. For those of you who said instructions were not provided, please have your vision checked! You just need to click on the question mark for instructions. There are, however other game elements where you need to figure out your next move; black bar tips always point you in the right direction and if you don’t know what to do or are new to this genre, check the strategy guide. My review will be 4 stars rounded down to 3.5 stars. I did this because the bonus adventure was ridiculously short, featured the same locations in the South Sandwich Islands we had just seen, and I also felt it was a very dull bonus adventure! That seemed strange because I really did enjoy the main game. UPDATE: We just had an Easter sale and there is now a spring sale instead of a new game! Are you kidding, BigFish? This is preposterous. However, there is a new release out today from Artifex Mundi, Queen’s Quest 4, and that’s a terrific series. Happy gaming to all!
Enjoyable!

Another interesting storyline from this series. Enjoyed the scenery and the mission given of finding our missing colleague. Hidden object scenes were interactive, puzzles were of quite of a variety - some being on the challenging side. Teleporting map and of course the famous fact cards which is the norm for this series. Experienced no glitches and good transition time between scenes. I agree with another reviewer, this game and storyline appealed to me more than some of the others. Overall fun game play with some suspense & mystery. Recommend picking this one up! Happy ? Gaming everyone!!!! Looking forward to our next game. ( I try to make them last, would ? it if Big Fish ? would give us more New Games! 2 a week just isn’t enough. What can I say I’m Hooked! No pun intended lol ? KdBoots Big Fish - Where is our New Release???? P.S. suggestion: you really need to be more consistent on your new releases. We avid gamers and supporters of you come to expect the normal release day - which should have been yesterday (Wednesday). Please start releasing more New Games. **Heads up fellow gamers; Found a game called Adera - The first episode is free, which is an adventure with few word lists of hidden object scenes, puzzles and the coolest part about this game is the graphics, which are 3 dimensional. Character voiceover, no map though. This is a Very Challenging adventure! You pick up useful items along your journey. I finished the 1st episode and liked it so much that I have purchased Episode 2. Give it a try and see if you like it. Big Fish once again, has only given us 1 new game last week, guess they think the so called spring sale is sufficient. WRONG!!! Really getting tired of their inconsistency and even on older purchased games saying that no record of purchase is found. I have addressed this with them and hope others will do the same. They just aren’t listening, 2 games a week isn’t enough and getting on 1 is Ridiculous. Anyway, Hope you find enjoyment with Adera. Happy Gaming Everyone! ? KdBoots
