Hi needlefeast,
I've played 2 Chronicles of Mystery games and liked them both, so I was interested in this new game, The Secret to the Lost Kingdom, that I came across on this thread. After reading what you wrote about the game, I have come to the conclusion that this is NOT an adventure game, but a CASUAL Interactive Hidden Object Game (also known as IHOG, or sometimes simply HOG) and these games follow different rules from a true adventure game. The hidden objects scenes are the main feature with the interaction parts and mini-games (the spot-the-difference and jigsaw puzzles) added for extra gameplay. This looks to me like it will be a good casual IHOG for me to play while I wait for a real adventure game to be released.
