This is how things progress in the game's story mode, which doesn't really have a story. Rather, it is a progression of 26 levels that take place across four fantastical interpretations of specific periods in human history: Stone Age with dinosaurs, ancient Egypt with giant gods walking around, medieval Europe with goblins, and the American Wild West. Each period provides a unique aesthetic, along with new sets of buildings, objects, and people. Aside from being visually pleasing, this also helps the gameplay from growing stagnant.
By the time you're near the end of a time period, you will have adapted to become more efficient at parsing the levels for where things are, so it can start to feel repetitive. In this way, the change in appearance isn't just visual, but a new challenge to adapt to the new visual language of the level. For instance, the Stone Age period is full of rounded and curved things; a lot of green between the trees, bushes, and dinosaurs; and trees and bushes are often overlapping or hiding other objects. In the ancient Egypt stages that follow it, it is more yellow, things are more straight line and square, while people and buildings are more densely packed together, yet not overlapping in the same way.
There are a lot of similar choices that might go unnoticed while you're playing, but they show that a lot of consideration is made about how things are hidden in a scene. Generally, objects are near where you might expect them to be; a sword will likely be near a knight, and bread will usually be in a kitchen or at a meal. But the game also uses small scenes within the level to not only look amusing, but also as a way to draw your attention to an area where an object might be. For example, in one stage, you are tasked with finding a sword stuck in a stone that happens to be hidden near a wizard and a boy, aping Merlin and a young King Arthur.
When the game breaks from your expectation or if you find yourself confounded as to where something is, there is a hint system. These are some of the best hints I've seen in a game, as they are like their own little puzzle that tells you just enough to point you in the right direction. A hint in one level for a small stone statue was something to the effect of, 'I made this so I'd be less lonely,' which tells you that you need to be looking for someone or something by itself and that they perhaps resemble the statue.
Perhaps the game's best feature is that it has a level creation tool, which lets you quickly make your own levels and upload them for other people to play. The editor is all drag and drop, first letting you pick which of the time periods you want to use, and then giving you access to all of the buildings, people, and objects from it that you can use to populate your level. Or if you aren't interested in making levels, you can just download other people's, effectively giving you access to far more levels than you could possibly play.
Hidden Through Time is also available on pretty much everything — PC, Mac, iOS, Android, PS4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch — so you can play it however you want anywhere inside (and, eventually, outside) your home. The gameisn't exactly revolutionary, but what it does it does very well.
Hidden Through Time was created by Crazy Monkey Studios. You can get it for $7.99 on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Steam (Windows and macOS) for $1.99 on iOS and $2.99 on Android. It takes about three to four hours to finish.
Hidden object games have always been a popular puzzle-platform to try out your searching skills in magazines or papers. In Hidden Through Time, the player will explore four great ages as they search for objects and people. The fun aspect about this game is the interaction with objects that leads to new findings as, for example, the character that you are looking for might be hidden behind a rock. If you feel creative, then you can unleash your creativity with the free map editor, so you can make puzzles for the whole world to enjoy.
