Mystery Case Files: MillionHeir (Nintendo DS, 2008)

fantastic game. Afew little idiosyncrasies in the interactions between the characters, but they are few and far between, the game being focused on the discovery of clues on pages magnificently drawn and filled with objects of all kinds, precious or simply intriguing and interesting. Therefore, even if you solve the crime, you can still chose quick play mode and spend years replaying the searching game, since elements in the scene change constantly. This is a very relaxing game for adults (unless you are playing as the detective and are limited by time..), it exercises your vision (get ready to pull out the reading glasses otherwise), exercises the memory and even teaches you a few new words. The spaces that you are visiting are beautiful, you catch yourself wanting one over another, because the artistic renditions gave you a certain feeling, of happiness, serenity, curiosity, whimsy,etc. I know I will continue to play this every night while falling asleep, there is no way I can think about my daily troubles while concentrating on these complex and fantastic pictures. I am very picky when it comes to beautiful images in games, and this one has my stamp of approval, it is fun and pleasing to look at, and definitely does not belong to the overbearing over muscled super humans or robots kind. For an investment, you will not regret it since you can play it everyday for years.A+

This hidden object game, that I discovered while visitng a relative, will have you up playing in the middle of the night.

It is about finding hidden objects, generated from a list,in a very cluttered scenario.

Is will introduce you to objects that you may have seen, but not know what is was called, therefore increasing your knowledge while having fun.

I recommend it to any one who enjoys hide and seek! Great for most ages!

I enjoy mystery games, and having recently recieved a DS, this game is at the top of my list.

It goes thru different 'suspects' and you have to locate items for each one of them in what is similiar to a 'where is waldo' type picture. You get a list of items, and you have to find each one. Some items you have to 'interact' with instead of just tapping on them.

The game is challenging, offering many different 'suspects' that you have to locate items for, but yet not overly difficult that you get frustrated by not being able to find these items. You get a specific number of hints to help you if you get stuck. (depending on if you play the rookie or the master level)

There are quick games to play as well, in between the main game, and one of the best features of the game I feel, is the fact that it gives you basic instructions right on your DS as you play. So its not like you have to read and re-read an instruction booklet.

Its engaging, fun, and really shows off some of what the DS is capable of doing. If you like mystery games like 'Clue' etc...you will love this game.

MillionHeir is alot like the I Spy series for kids which I enjoy even more than my 10 year old son does! Hunting for clues and figuring out "who dunnit" is an enjoyable past time and keeps your mind sharp. Lots of fun for all ages but more for older kids and adults.

I just love this game!! I have all of the Mystery Case Files PC games and this is the 1st and only Mystery Case Files for Nintendo DS. I sure hope Nintendo DS comes out with many more!! Since I love all of the ones for PC, I had a feeling I would love this one for NDS, too, and sure enough, I absolutely love it!! It's very addictive, though, and I don't want to do anything else but play this game and find out what happened to the Millioniare, Phil T. Rich. This game, just like all of the Mystery Case Files, is a bunch of different scenes where you find hidden pictures. Then, at the end of every set of hidden pictures, there's a cool puzzle or riddle to solve. It's just very entertaining and fun, at least to me it is. If you don't like puzzles, though, you won't like it. I'm a puzzle freak!! LOL
