I've always wanted to go to San Francisco on vacation, but it hasn't worked out. So Big City Adventure: San Francisco is as close as I can to visit this city full of rich history and fascinating sites. This hidden object game shares all kinds of facts about the city and 20 of its spots.
The game contains 60 levels, so you visit the same spot a few times and pick up a new fact each time you visit. You discover your new destination by completing a mini-game and then do the hunt for hidden objects at the destination. This one nicely ties the hidden object scene and mini-games with the game's San Francisco theme. Be warned… it starts easy, but it will get harder! Avoid any temptation to feel cocky early on like I did.
Upon finding all the objects in a level, you earn a token that appears on the edge of the map screen. The tokens work their way around the map until you've covered all three sides. This helps track your progress. You earn "Quick Find Bonus" points when you find more than one object quickly or complete more than one move closely in the mini-game.
The ultimate feature in this one that should be a standard in all hidden object games: Letting you know when you click something and it turns out to be nothing. Many of the games don't always "hear" your click and you don't want to click again for fear you'll lose points. Not a problem with Big City Adventure SF. The game shows an icon when you click an object that doesn't appear on the list of things you need to find. I'm currently playing another hidden object game and too many times something I clicked earlier turn out to be one of the objects on the list.
