What Parents Need to Know
This review of The Nightshift Code was written by Marc Saltzman
Parents need to know that this game doesn't contain any inappropriate material (even for younger players). It's basically a "Where's Waldo"-like seek-and-find puzzle game with an adventure twist. This is a downloadable game for both Mac and Windows computer, and it comes with a try-before-you-buy option.
Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about why this genre is one of the most popular among "casual game" fans. Is it because it's very accessible? Non-violent? Conveniently downloadable? Offers a try-before-you-buy model?
More on The Nightshift Code
What’s the Story?
The core game-play will be familiar to fans of hidden object games and it is well executed here. You're presented with a busy scene, such as a messy room or outdoor courtyard, and you're asked to find a dozen or more items listed at the bottom of the screen. Examples of items you'll be asked to find include a sword, conch shell, green apple, sphinx, penny, wheelbarrow, car, fan and mermaid. No, you're not asked to find Waldo, but that's the idea.
