Some thoughts on Artifex Mundi games [GA of exactly what you would expect]

Elunes will visit and comment on this thread. I guarantee it.

Thank you! I've played only the first Time Mysteries yet. I know that it's the worst in the series (that animation xD), so I plan to continue my exploration.

I love the puzzle more than the hidden object itself, don't know why. Something wrong with me? ._.

In defense of Artifex Mundi

but I've only ever heard good things about Artifex Mundi, I don't really think anyone needs to defend them. :p

I didn't think HOGs, especially AM ones, needed defending. I guess you've encountered some hostility?
Some of AM's earlier games are pretty awful (Time Mysteries 1), but there's some real gems in their more recent library (Grim Legends 1).
My only issue is that due to the minigame alternatives to the hidden object sequences, it seems like it's necessary to play each game twice to get all the achievements(once to find the objects, and once to solve the dominoes/mahjong/etc puzzles), and I'm reluctant to do that. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there a way around it?

artifex mundy games are actually the best HOG games imho
i just dont know why they make alot of bundles for their games...

I'm not really into HOG, but Artifex Mundi changed my mind, it's the first time I played a HOG game like that and really enjoy it. It's Nightmares from the Deep (the first one of series). I love it.

Love HOG and I own almost every game from Artifex Mundi, minus the ones released recently, since I can't afford the right now.
Hoping to sell some cards and maybe buy them next sale.

I just remembered my friends and I did a playthrough/riff of a HOG on my youtube channel some time ago. Not Artifex Mundi, but the style was very similar. I'll post a link here... if it's ok with Pearadise?

I found that kind of games not that long time ago... and I loved it.
I played both Grimm Legends till now, but it's highly recommended for everyone! (would never expect I actually enjoyed HOGS so much, as I'm rather fps/rpg fan)

I like the Grim Legend.

I won several hog, but still struggling with backlog...
Hope upcoming holiday could be a big game time ^^

Thank you ^^

I love them....in fact, I never hear anyone who also likes point and click adventure games have a negative thing to say about them..so i'm kind of confused why this post is sounding like most people hate the games, and yer trying to get them to just try them..like green eggs and ham..lol

I have a new-found love for HOGs. Played Grim Legends: The Forsaken Bride recently just to try it out, ended up playing for 5 hours straight. lol

Thanks for the GAs!

I've really enjoyed AM games and I have been content with all of the ones that are out. I can really wind down while I'm playing them. I always look forward to getting a new one. ^^ I bought the bundlestars bundle not too long ago just to give out b/c I think more people should experience how fun they are. (: There was one HOG game I played back in the day I remember really liking was actually a time travel themed one, not Time Mysteries, but I can't remember what it was called. Wasn't an AM one though, so I'm not sure if it will ever be on Steam... It's on Big Fish, though. Maybe I'll try looking for it again.

Their games are good enough, but one thing that they are TERRIBLE at is English localization. Seriously folks, hire a Brit expat who's living in the U.S.A. or vice-versa check out the nouns you are using to describe the items in the hidden objects parts of these games. A pinwheel is not a windmill.

I often play HO games before I sleep. Because even though I enjoy them, they still make me sleepy. :3

bump for: I need more entries in one of the hidden GAs.

Bump for 24 hours left

Have a yes. Yes.
