There are 23 trophies in all,
which are awarded for a variety of things from finishing a level in a
certain amount of time, to finding all the items in a round without clicking
on any incorrect items. To learn what you need to do to obtain each trophy,
visit the Trophy Room from the main menu and roll over each trophy with your
mouse to read its description.
If you want to obtain the best possible scores in Blitz Mode (where you have
to find all of the items in a shop in the shortest amount of time possible),
it is best to play the same shop one after another so that the location of
the items are fresh in your memory. When you are done playing Blitz you can
check your scores against other players.
In order to finish a round successfully you have to find 10 of the 15 items
that are asked of you. If you find all 15 items you will earn a gold star
and you will be able to play a bonus round in which you will have to find 1
cleverly hidden item in the location that you just played.
You will have to find the bonus item with whatever time you have left on the
clock from your current game. However, if you only have a few seconds left(
about 20 or less) before your bonus round begins, the game will bump your
time up to about 30 seconds. If you complete all the bonus rounds for a
unique location, you will earn a trophy for each location that you complete.
If you've finished a round and you did not find all 15 items, a menu will
appear at the end of the game and it will ask you if you want to replay the
level or continue on to the next round. Press 'replay' so you can have a
second chance at finding all of the 15 items so you can play the bonus
round. If you do not wish to replay at that time press calendar and you will
move on to the next round, you can always go back and replay a level at any
time by pressing the back arrow at the bottom of the screen.
You start the game with 3 hints and you can earn an additional 60 hints when
you can find 60 question marks that are hidden throughout all 12 locations.
Each unique location contains 5 hidden question marks. Some question marks
will be easy to find while others are very well hidden. In order to find
them you have to look in every possible corner, wall, attached to something
else etc.
60 hints may sound like an awful lot, but remember that they have to last
you through the whole game. It is a good idea to pace yourself when it comes
to using the hints, try to leave them for the last possible moment. I
preferred to use them for the bonus round, since a new item is added to the
game just for the bonus round.
The hint system in this game is different than most of the hints in the
majority of hidden object games. Instead of it pinpointing out one item for
you, it will show you pictures of all the items that are at the bottom of
the screen. At times you would probably prefer for it to show you where an
item is, but being able to see what color and shape the items are can help
you find multiple objects at once.
Another nice way to get some extra hints in this game is by finding hidden
thermometers that are scattered throughout the scene. Once you find and
click on a thermometer, you will notice that each persons speech bubble will
either have icicles or flames around it. Once you see the flames appear it
means that you are close to that particular item, the higher the flames, the
closer you are. The same goes for the icicles, the further away you are from
an object, the longer the icicles become.
There will be times when you see more than one item showing flames, when
that happens click on the first item you locate and then stay in the
vicinity so you can find the next item quickly. I like to keep my eyes on
the speech bubble at all times and just move my mouse without looking at the
screen, when I see that the flames are high, I just click it and move on to
the next item. If you're able to find all 5 items while they are showing hot
or cold you will earn a trophy for that in your collection.
While you're playing a round you can see if you still have any question
marks left to find by simply looking at the question mark that is on the top
right side of the screen, next to the hint button. If the question mark is
white, it means that there are still hints left to be found. If the question
mark is dark, it means that there are no more hints to be found in that
location.
Each of the 12 unique
locations also has 1 sock monkey and 5 pigeons to find. When you locate
all of the sock monkeys and pigeons you will earn an award for each one
of those tasks you complete. The sock monkey is always dressed in a
different outfit - it could be in a dress, or it could be a painting
instead of a stuffed animal that you have to find.
The pigeons are much harder
to find than the sock monkeys since they are not colorful and they can
blend pretty well into the background. The pigeons will sometimes be in
flight and other times they will be in a resting position.
Once you find the sock
monkeys and the pigeons in one location, you will not have to find them
again once you replay that particular scene. You can look at the bottom
right corner of the calendar and it will tell you how many question
marks, pigeons and monkeys you still need to find.
