Romance of Rome

This is a hidden object puzzle game with an Ancient Rome theme. You can earn money, trophies, and complete a number of quests.

Miriel's Enchanted Mystery

This seems to be a cross between a time management and hidden object puzzle game. It looks a little like Cake Mania, except you're creating potions for customers instead of cakes.

Ghost Town Mysteries — Bodie

This appears to be yet another hidden object puzzle game, but with a ghostly twist. In fact, the game is supposedly inspired by real events and a real ghost town. There are 17 puzzles and 13 mini-puzzles.

Zulu's Zoo Game

We've got one more hidden object puzzle game available at Game du Jour this week, but this time with a zoo theme. There are more than 60 levels in the game, and you can learn fun animal facts while you play.

Wizard's Hat

This is a match-3 game with a wizardy theme. There are four types of gameplay and upgradable items such as the magic wand and shiny cauldron.

Department 42: The Mystery of the Nine

This is a puzzle game, but hard to determine just what kind based on the screenshots. There are 20 puzzles that involve you locating special artifacts and exploring various locations.

Little Shop

Just when you think you've had your fill of hidden object puzzles this week, you find one more this Saturday. However, instead of a Halloween theme, this game has you traipsing all over the world as you track down objects.
