The value story
Across all 71 discounts in the 10 years tracked, the median cut is 70 percent, about 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.
Value puts it in the top 33 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 81 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 70 percent. On the same math Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek ($14.99, scores 52) and Abyss: The Wraiths of Eden ($14.99, scores 57) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.
The drop-off

I feel I need to put my foot down here, usually I love hidden object games and it doesn't matter if some puzzle feel the same or are similar to some extend... but this game had zero originality and felt like a clusterfest of pipe puzzles from beginning to end. At least try to jazz things up a bit guys.

Uhm... This game was so different from the other Secret Orders in the series... That I thought I booted the wrong game. It looks the same... Has the same character and a helper, but... It doesn't feel the same. It's not necessary bad, however, if you get used to four other games being one way and then it throws you in for a damn strange loop? You either hate it or don't. I just mindlessly played it. It was odd and...
It was alright, especially if you can get the collection during a sale. Not much to loose if you don't play this... It have nice amount of achievements...so i kinda like it. 5/10
