Hidden in Time Mirror Mirror

The Hidden in Time part gives it away, that it’s a hidden object game to play. Find a dusty mirror, some say is trash, you say it’s treasure and call them brash. And so it goes…you were right, the mirror is bold with magic insight. Not only that its history is long, once used by a Duke who misused it all along. He tugged it he coaxed it and then it broke. What a jerk he was and now it’s a joke. Now venture to old Castle Fairwich, uncover the mystery so you can ditch, the eery feeling that you share about the mirror if you dare. Search all the rooms inside the castle, hidden objects to find it’s not a hassle. Play mini games along the way, solve puzzles and tricks and save the day. So why do I feel I must rhyme? I was inspired, is it a crime? By Mirror Mirror yadda dee yadda dah…oh play this game, it isn’t blah!

Rainbow Mystery

Rainbow Mystery for Mac is for the puzzle gamers who like match three style of games but with a twist. Instead of a board with jewels or flowers in an even square grid, you’ll have to make your matches on a honeycomb configuration, which adds more of a challenge to the game play. The story behind Rainbow Mystery involves helping Lily, the fairy of flowers, return life and color into the Rainbow world. The wicked wizards turned everything into a drab, colorless landscape. 70 levels.

More Mac Games To Download

Zen Stones (new) – As one of the most chill logic puzzle games I’ve played recently, it’s not surprising Zen Stone’s tagline is, “Relax, it’s just a game.” There’s no plot or story here and you are never on the clock so take your time to solve each level. No one cares if you take five minutes or an hour – or even more than that. Send stones from the outer board to the main playing field. Shoot to have three or more adjacent stones of the same color and they will disappear from the inner board. Do this until you clear the playing field to move on the next level. Take advantage of the many bonuses that will help you go forward. You will soon fall in love with these bonuses, especially the “UP” bonus. The game can be truly addictive for puzzle gamers. If you become stuck on a level, don’t get your undies in a twist. Just start over because afterall, it’s just a game. Play online for free or buy a downloadable version

Dream Chronicles The Chosen Child – Myst-like adventure games are making a huge comeback, which is what many Mac gamers have been hoping and waiting for so I’m happy to recommend this one. I’m particularly drawn to Dream Chronicles because it makes me wonder if Gaudí were alive today and making games, if they’d look like this. I think so! In Dream Chronicles The Chosen Child, immerse yourself in a whimsical, wonderful world of fairies and dream-like experiences. Follow Faye, the main character who is suddenly afflicted with a bout of amnesia, in her search for the truth and the missing husband and child she believes (but is not sure) are a part of her life.

Smack Mahjong – What can one say about a classic tile matching game except that it is a perfect game during the cold winter months to waste some time! Not that there’s anything wrong with that; Smack Mahjong will fill your hours or days with very relaxing game play. I like to zone out playing tile games once in a while because it puts me in a sort of soothing state of mind, yet the brain still feels like it’s working behind the scenes. This game should not be confused with the real game of Mahjong, which is similar to gin rummy. It’s rather about matching tiles with the same Chinese characters or numbers. Smack Mahjong features different backgrounds and various tile sets, one of which is ideal for little kids. Download it

Valerie Porter and the Scarlet Scandal – Some time during the 20s, everything’s copacetic ’til someone gets bumped off and investigative reporter Valerie Porter gets tangled in a complicated caper. She interviews the mayor, a dame, chief of police, a flapper, a ragamuffin and more, only to be be fed humdinger lines, which makes her feel like a sap. Looking for the Real Mccoy the search doesn’t stop there, so work with her to get folks to spill the truth and get a wiggle on the case for a jake news story. What am I talking about in my horrible attempt at 1920′s lingo? In a Valerie Porter and the Scarlet Scandal nutshell: hidden objects, baby, scandals, investigations, murder, corruption, bribes, puzzles, late nights, suspicion, intrigue, giggle water – which all lead to playing a game that’s the cat’s pajamas.
