Mirrors of Albion vs The Good Life
Mirrors of Albion
Mirrors of Albion is a hidden object adventure game where a young lady by the name of Alice Fleming has disappeared from her home. The police were baffled but thankfully, a secret police intern has decided to send the case on to you. The mysterious nature of the incident peaked your interest and voila - you are now on the case! The gameplay in Mirrors of Albion is definitely not for the beginner - in addition to the usual HO mode, you'll also be treated to various anomalies which will increase the difficulty level rather drastically. There are plenty of power-ups, boosts, collectibles, and even fun mini-games, secret locations and a marketplace to trade items.As complicated as the game may be, Mirrors of Albion is among the few hidden object games that is designed for the truly hardcore HO player. If you find the usual hidden object games a tad bit too easy for you, you'll definitely have a blast in this game!
The Good Life
The Good Life is a 3D adventure RPG featuring quests to complete, a mystery to unravel, and also a person speeding away in a highly advanced wheelchair that you can’t seem to catch up to. In this game, you play as a rather snobbish photographer from New York who’s in a massive amount of debt and the only way out is for you to complete this mysterious assignment you’re sent on – to discover why a sleepy little town is known as “the happiest town in the world”.As you play, you’ll unlock a feature that allows Naomi to change form. Without giving away too many spoilers, just know that by “changing forms”, Naomi will be able to reach areas she wouldn’t be able to reach otherwise, allowing her to uncover clues that will help in her investigation. The forms will also give her the chance to collect certain materials that she’ll need to complete quests.
The highlight of the game, however, is definitely its photography aspect. If you’ve enjoyed games where the goal is to simply capture nature at its best, then you’ll love the camera action here. Not only can you upgrade your camera (its lens specifically) to allow for more variety of shots, you actually need to rely on your photo-taking skills to earn a living in this game.
The Good Life is a pretty fun and charming adventure RPG with an interesting story to follow. The game’s easy enough for even young children to enjoy, though the protagonist, Naomi, might not make the best role model.
