Well designed & fun...but, Expensive! – Seekers Notes: Hidden Objects Review

I’ve been playing this game on and off for several years and do appreciate the beautiful graphics and scenes and enjoy being a part of a Guild. HOWEVER, as others have mentioned, it is VERY expensive to play and any prizes you earn for playing their mini events or even the Guild challenges are measly & cheap. Often in a guild challenge, the prizes include 1 arrow, a small energy boost & other similar tokens. Their mini events often taken multiple tools to complete (timer, arrows) & the prize isn’t worth the effort. In the beginning, I was able to finish the events and earn the theme avatar by spending a small amount of $ for the event passes. In the past year, the game has changed to make it almost impossible to finish the events without spending $$$. The special items required to turn in the event collections are rigged to not drop often, so it requires many more plays to earn, which in turn requires more event passes/tickets to play, which of course cost $$. Or, you can spend hours playing other scenes to earn passes to play the event. The developers have also increased the number of anomalies that appear in scenes, which of course require special objects to dispel, which in turn are hard to accumulate and cost a ridiculous amount in their store. I don’t mind spending a reasonable amount on a game as entertainment, but this game along with others (Hidden City), sadly seem to be raising the cost with each update.
