I like to play a hidden object game every now and then but I hadn't played one in a while. Recently, however, I finished Nightmares from the Deep: The Cursed Heart. It was developed by Artifex Mundi, a company that has created quite a few games in this genre. It was similar to other Artifex Mundi games I've played and that was a good thing. It focused on hidden object puzzles but there were other puzzle types as well. The length was just about right for me and I finished it in under five hours. I had the collector's edition so I played the bonus adventure as well. The story was about Captain Remington, a long dead pirate, and his lost love. It was fine but I play these games much more for the puzzles than the story.

Nightmares from the Deep is a trilogy and I have all three games. From what I've read, the two sequels are as good or better than The Cursed Heart. I'll eventually get around to playing them all.
