The Tiny Bang Story

Yeah, its not a big game but it was a good way to spend a rainy day inside. I had enough fin to not turn it off until it was finished. SOmetimes the things you is finding was a little small but luckily there is a "find this shit" button if you collect enough bugs. The puzzles were hard but I suck at puzzles however I managed to do them all with only a slight headache in chapter 4............If its on sale and you want a sit down relaxing game then buy it.

It's cute(and cudos for making a non-violent game), but after playing it a bit it crashed (apparently it's buggy on the Mac) so I'm back in the desktop again and not inclined to go back in. Not that it's a bad game: Some people might enjoy it. But there seems to be no story whatsoever and since I don't enjoy the "hidden object" aspect in games, there was nothing that I could find in it for me.

It's a nice enough little game but don't get it if you're colourblind. The one where you arrange the balls was bad enough but I haven't got a hope of getting past the puzzle where you have to sort the blocks into order of hue and saturation.

My daughter and I have played many hidden object games over the years. Overall there are few things that the genre in general tries to do differently. The formula is well defined at this point. This is where "The Tiny Bang Story" enters from stage left. It is definitely a hidden object game and although the story is functionally nonexistent, the puzzles and presentation are just lovely. While the bright colors and generally "cheerful" presentation would be great for children to look at, do not be fooled. Some of the puzzles are fairly challenging and might not be that easy to solve. If you enjoy hidden object games, want to burn around five hours, or enjoy playing games with your children then I highly encourage you to give this game a try. You will not be disappointed.
