Review from awem.com

  • Pros: great blending of genres, engaging detective storyline, long duration of gameplay.
  • Cons: a lot of spelling and grammar mistakes.


Natalie Brooks - Secrets of Treasure HouseNatalie Brooks - Secrets of Treasure House is a wonderful mixture of various genres. It will especially satisfy those who like detective stories.

The storyline is both thrilling and intriguing. Natalie Brooks is a young lady who inherits her grandmother’s house. But everything is not as clear as it may seem. The authorities are not likely to give Natalie her inheritance and a new road is planned to be built through her property. So you are to help Natalie petition to get her house back along with treasures hidden inside. You’ll meet a number of people who will help you but not everyone will be on your side!

Natalie Brooks - Secrets of Treasure House may be compared with Azada or Dream Chronicles. As it was mentioned above Natalie Brooks - Secrets of Treasure House is a wonderful blending of various genres: hidden objects, logic puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, adventure and mystery, memory or even arcade mini games. It will satisfy everyone’s taste. The gameplay is not too difficult and you don’t have to spend much time learning to play, if any at all. Everything is clear from the very beginning. You may use hints and it is not difficult to gain them if you’re stuck on any part.

On each level you click on the map to choose a location. After finding all the required items at that spot you earn hints and collect pieces of the picture in Natalie’s diary. That’s all! But don’t forget that some objects interact. To do this just take one object and put it on top of another one in your inventory. Voilà!

Natalie Brooks - Secrets of Treasure HouseThe storyline of Natalie Brooks - Secrets of Treasure House game is rather long and engaging. It always keeps you in suspense as to what will happen next. This makes it harder to leave the game as gameplay lasts quite a while and is a pleasure to come back to. Story presentation is tight, sustained and high quality comics tell you the events as they unfold. The story is not original, but still pleases as it shares some information through comments from Natalie when you click on objects and other from dialogue or Natalie’s diary. In general everything adds much to keep our interest and we feel as if we were watching a detective cartoon.

Natalie Brooks - Secrets of Treasure House is not difficult as I put above and it makes the game a pleasant trip that’s easy to enjoy, but some players will wish for a more challenging experience.  The only disappointment is the poor English. There are a great number of spelling and grammar mistakes, which can be distracting.

In general Natalie Brooks - Secrets of Treasure House leaves a favorable impression.  I strongly recommend it.
