Hidden Expedition: Dawn of Prosperity Collector's Edition Reviews

Loved this game... took me back to the 90s when I was obsessed with these games . Id go to the library and spend hours on these CD rom games, they are the absolute Best! I enjoyed having a new story, Though I feel they rushed the story a bit. I liked the idea near the end of him not letting you escape and I was disapointed I had to shoot him instead of being abducted. Lol. It could have been fun , thankyou, keep making My games

Overall I enjoyed it, interesting storyline and nice artwork. I'd prefer more HOPs and some of the puzzles were quite difficult (and one of them just wouldn't work for me, the bit with the drone and trying to hook the gate pins).

Sneak your way into a strange research facility and discover the origin of mysterious tremors. Uncover a plot to send humanity back to the Stone Age. Find a missing girl. As an agent of HELP (I still question this choice of acronym), you can do anything and everything with the help - er, assistance - of your courage and ingenuity. As long as you don't mind a "retro" sci-fi / secret agent plot that feels more like the 60s than the 90s, this is a fun HOPA game with lots to do in the way of HO scenes and puzzles. Not the best out there, but entertaining nonetheless. Pros: - variety of HO scenes - ability to return for missing collectibles and achievements via Extras - most of the voice acting is quite good (if I were a girl in a car about to be squished, I'd be more scared, but that's me...) - variety of puzzles (mostly on easier side, but some challenges) - fully interactive map - customizable difficulty Cons: - no particular cons, but I didn't love the game (although some of the toys provided a real trip down memory lane!) - why are so many genius scientists embittered megalomaniacs? Overall: It's a moderately good game in a moderately good series. I prefer other Eipix games, but probably because they're prettier visually and have more memorable characters. Note: The bundle includes three older-style HO games that are not HOPA games.

Dawn of Prosperity is part of the Hidden Expedition series, HO Adventure Games. Well written, engaging story, clear graphics, & likable characters. The game includes enough but not too many HO scenes, as well as puzzles, & mini games. It has an interactive map and hint/skip button. It has a unique-to-this-series gadget you interact with to receive & review messages and collected info cards.

5* Thoroughly enjoyed this game. As is usual from Eipix, highly creative, if not as jokesy as some. , with loads of extras. Good story-line with appropriate music throughout. Perfect balance between interesting HOPs and challenging but doable puzzles. Pleased to say I got all the achievements. Don't worry if you miss a collectable, (the guide is out of order) you can get that at the end along with morphing objects in the HOPs. Thoroughly recommend

Okay, so some unusual earthquakes have been happening in Montana. Someone has sent a coded message to H.E.L.P. headquarters asking for assistance in the area… so you are sent. And you have stumbled into some kind of conspiracy… And based on the opening area looking mountainous… whoever is triggering these quakes is playing with fire… literally. (I mean would you want to be starting earthquakes near Yellowstone?) Plot is decent, HO scenes fun, and minigames challenging. Suggest getting in the bundle.
