Meeeeeoooooowwww! This game is "Purr"licious! – Christmas Stories: Puss in Boots HD - A Magical Hidden Object Game (Full) Review

Attention children and adults of all ages with true holiday spirit: This game redefines adorableness and will cause even the hardest of hearts to produce a big "aaawwww" and pass out at cuteness overload. But watch out! Someone is trying to sabotage Christmas! You receive a kitten on your doorsteps, and you take kitty into your home to love and adore. You go to bed one night and get waken up by "Simon" - yes, your speaking wonder cat; and he tells you that he was sent by Santa and needs your help with saving Christmas. You get to meet Santa, and you set out to find the thief who stole the Christmas star. This game has some innovative characteristics, such as using your own name, which is incorporated into the dialogue. In addition, you get to choose which questions you may ask as well as your responses. Simon becomes your helper to retrieve and reach items. The voiceovers are nicely done; and the music is appropriate to the upcoming holiday season, using some familiar holiday tunes. The graphics are nice, with heavy emphasis on shades of blue reflecting various night scenes. The artwork focuses on the seasonal spirit with holiday decorations incorporated everywhere, presents abound, and snow filled streets through this Christmas cat town. The inventory is labeled and highly interactive. Some items require assembly; and you will complete some puzzles, such as putting together a poster. The map gives fast teleport; and in custom mode, it tells you that you can do something and that you can collect a puzzle piece. It tells you the location name as well. Transition between scenes was smooth and quick. The HOS are mainly word lists and consist of items relative to the holidays. The puzzles are also holiday related. One example is when you match pairs of constellations on your way to visit Santa. There is lots to do in each scene and a multitude of items to collect. You are collecting puzzle pieces in the locations, as well as the pop-ups; in addition, you collect morphing objects in some locations. The extras include your achievements, jigsaw puzzles, and a secret room. The only cons were lack of a journal and a back button, but don't let that stop you from playing this game with true holiday spirit!
