It's just fine. Entertaining, with not very difficult puzzles, but it's a very short game.

Not a bad game, but there are way better hidden object games out there.

It's a nice format with a mix of tasks, but the whole game can be played in an hour or so, with no variation. Not worth the money.

Nice game. Remind me 'Ween The prophecy' and the good old times of clic based adventure games, with a bit of 'search the item' style of games. Nice ambiance and arts.
To the guy who feel it's too short: at this price, i wouldn't expect the game to have 30 hours of gameplay. And if you take time to search instead of using help, it may be more interesting and with a longer play time it think :)
Thanks for this nice journey !

A quick, casual game that follows the tales of Marco Polo. The games are interesting, the tale is informative, and the art is... nice.
Would recommend.

LONGER
This is a well-designed and executed point and click game. I am NOT GOOD at point and click games but in this one, there is just enough logic in each sequence to figure it out. The in-game help system is also well designed.
The in-game help system is well thought out, and only releases a single clue with each mouse click. So instead of revealing the entire point and click sequence at once (and ruining that screen), the in-game help just release a single clue at a time. If you're really stuck then sure reveal the entire sequence, but maybe you figured most of it out except one thing.
The puzzles are also reasonable. There is a pattern that can be deduced, and there is a hint with a timer if you can't find the last one of 'find X pieces of the map'. type puzzles. A few puzzles can also be skipped entirely.
There are a few screens where historical information is shared about technology brought back to the West from China.
As others have mentioned the game is short, but worth it.

This is a great game indeed, kind of like hidden objects type of game.
But what i really like about this game is the history, the historical accuracy information provided, along with the story it self seems to be accurate.
We all want more games with accurate and relevant information.
