Time Mysteries 1 (Full)

...that is big issue 1! Some are obvious, several I've never seen before. And I've played many many of these games. There are errors in the HO'S which can be frustrating; and there are way too many HOs. When told to find a "helm" you are in actuality looking for a helmet, the "fang" is bones hanging from a string that in no way resemble fangS, the "fiddle" is an English type round guitar, of course I cannot recall them all. Hidden object games and just objects themselves can be areas you know you've tapped already and some locations are obscure at best.

In one of the puzzles where you get your stuff for the timetraveling device it's asking for a magic cube. I see the cube, and tab it like a monkey on speed but nothing happens. So im stuck at this point. Poor programming.

Love it.

Stupid story, too many hogs, not worth the money I paid for it. RUBBISH!!!

Basic game, fine if you are up for repetitive gameplay. Lots of hidden object scenes, with some mismatch of words and objects. Voice acting is quite silly and the graphics employed for the talking faces is disturbing!

HOG after HOG after HOG. No variety the game. There are much better games by this publisher such as the Grim Legends series

Too many hog! Just the same thing over and over. Big fan of these type of games, but this one no!

Bit disappointed iv played these for years and this one is unfortunately one that's in the bottom pile the hidden objects game are very blurry making it difficult to find anything and overall graphics of video is a bit naff when they have had some brilliant ones on here especially grim legends I love sorry ok but not great need to do better x

This dev produces better games for the price, such as the Grim Legends series. However, if you're new to these types of games, or you simply prefer a shorter adventure game that involves mainly hidden object scenes and simple puzzles, this is a good choice. It can be completed in a few hours, unlike some of their other games, which can provide hours entertainment and can be played for days. Still, I'm happier paying to play considering it's only the price of a latte :)

A nice story. Main issue is with the hidden objects. Way too difficult to discern in most cases. Some were a "just tap & see what happens". The dialogue, although understandable, was sometimes out of sequence a bit & the "kidnapper" sounded like the voice of a computer instead of a person. And, what is this cataclysm Merlin, aka Ball, is supposed to help divert?? Perhaps, in Part 2?? We'll see...

If this was remastered, I hate to think what the original was like. The graphics are poor, the character renditions laughable (heroine/PC rotates between the same few static views regardless of context). Plus the minigames do not come with instructions. Some are pretty obvious and still easy to complete if you have ever played one of these types of games before; others are really not. I resorted to using the skip button just because I couldn't be bothered with the frustration of trying to work out precisely what the point of all the coloured dials and such were. There's no map which I guess makes sense when it's a series of fractured locations, but when playing on expert mode you have no idea where the exits are. No bonus chapter either. All in all, definitely not their best work and not worth even the sale price.

good story line bad graphics liked it better than the third game quite pricey won't spend 4.99 on your games big fish has just as good games for alot less money over all good game

This is one of the first that came out, you can tell because of the graphics. I feel like most of the ratings are really harsh. It's easy to complete in a couple hours but it's still well done and I've played worse. And the HOGS aren't awful. I would buy it while it's on sale for 1.99. I bought #2 because the comments where excellent and I wanted to do the entire series. Still... you go to 7 different time periods....

I did really love your games but this bored me 2 tears, so I'm uninstalling it and I will not be buying the sequels like I was planning to! Poor quality of visuals, grim legends and enigmatis 2 are way better but I will not buy any other game for fear of more poorly done games!! Time mysteries 2 was just as bad but time mysteries 3 was perfect!

This is the worst among all the artifex mundi games i bought. The searching process is repetitive....really boring..

I was asked for a review when I had barely started. It's a time travel game, but I'm still trying to get the time machine working. I will keep playing and expect my rating to go up, but can't recommend even for a time passer based on the little I have played. So far, the HOs seem to dominate the game and are hard. If I liked HOs, this would be a great game - but I see HOs as filler for real puzzles. ETA: about half way through, and considering quitting here. Dropped my rating a star. Try Grim Legends.

The animation was awful and their faces just wobbled to suggest talking. The story line was not developed to it's potential. The puzzles were boring and repetitive. Also it's not worth the money.

Would have been 5 stars but for the weird speech used and the...disturbing...distortion on characters' faces while talking. I enjoyed the difficulty challenge, clever hiding of objects and spot-the-difference above many other games. Ignore the story and this game is quite enjoyable.

Well made game, just too many hogs for my taste.

Definitely not up to Enigmatis or Grim Legend standard, but maybe its one of their earlier games.

I loved this game & can't wait to play the rest of this trilogy.

Good concept for games but little control, and I reached the last piece of a puzzle and it would not place it, very frustrating

Stupid story, too many hogs, not worth the money I paid for it. RUBBISH!!!

Game is interesting but at some points its getting painful to play which take fun away from it. Some logical story connection between parts of a game are missing

Enjoying travels through. Exciting and time-worthy.

Story line was awful and the graphics when people talked was bad. I know this is a trilogy but I'm not interested in seeing this story progress.

Its good so far

this game is addictive

Love this game

Loved it!

I loved it.

Cool!

Story was only so so. Really very boring. I did like the cheesy 80's British Syfy vibe though. If they had that plus made things more engaging then "go to this scene and do these 3 very bland things" it would have been good. I didn't even finish (not even half way). It's certainly not worth money.

Fun, challenging puzzles, great storylines, good time killer...

Kind of boring. Lots of hidden games, boring storyline. Artifex games so far have been pretty good. This one's not bad just boring. I only finished it bc I paid for it and wanted it to just be over.

I have played many other games from this developer and they were fantastic! This game - not so much. There wasn't much of a storyline and there's too many hidden object mini games in this. Objects were really hard to find. I don't think I'll download the rest of this Trilogy. In saying that, the other games by this developer are truly amazing and absolutely enjoyable to play.

The picture quality isn't that brilliant needs a bit updating apart from that it's fun enjoyed the third game

You repeat the same task over and over. The only thing that changes is some of the scenery.

Kind of boring

Boring not worth the money
