Forgotten Riddles: The Mayan Princess HD App Review

Forgotten Riddles: The Mayan Princess HD Rank: #82 on the Top 100 Free iPad Apps List as of July 28th For: iPad If you've ever desired to be a Chief Archaeologist working to solve a mysterious death of a royal Mayan family, then Forgotten Riddles: The Mayan Princess HD from Big Fish Games is the game for you. Big Fish Games is a popular company bringing you timeless titles on its website and on the iPad. With Forgotten Riddles, Big Fish has done it again with yet another out-of-the-park hit. Users are greeted with a beautiful introduction sequence after entering their names to then play the game. Of course users are given the option to skip the intro if that is their preference. Users who love the classic “find the item” games where items are hidden amongst a larger image will make this game an instant favorite. Coupled with clues at the bottom to guide the user to the next item is a combination of genres not previously popular. Despite this odd combination, users will find the game play refreshing and exciting as they scan the pictures before them in search for items. When the user has found all the items in a given level, the game progresses onto the next level. The ultimate goal of Forgotten Riddles is to solve the mystery of how a royal Mayan family suddenly died. This game isn't for everyone, however, despite the exciting back-story and puzzling game play. Some players will experience a lack of excitement as the core animations of this game are in the intro and briefings to each level. The animations inside the levels themselves are scarce and somewhat boring. Forgotten Riddles combines the excitement of riddle solving with the nostalgia of the old “find the item” game. Forgotten Riddles brings the player into a world where they are the archeologist with a very important mystery to solve. Akin to famous detectives such as Sherlock Holmes, players will immerse themselves in a wonderful gaming experience.
