Mirrors of Albion för Android

Gå till Wonderland i detta Lewis Carroll-inspirerade spel

Om du är en fan av allt Lewis Carroll, då är Mirrors of Albion ett intressant magiskt mysterium gömställe spel infuserat med några av Carrolls klassiska karaktärer.

Set in the dirty underbelly of 19th Century London

The setting is the crime ridden streets of Victorian London and the aim is to stop the evil Queen of Hearts. The nice thing about Mirrors of Albion is that no two games are exactly the same - the plot and scenarios can vary from game to game. You must track down various hidden items located in various areas such as the dingy outskirts of London to Victorian mansions.

Along the way, you'll meet various characters from Lewis Carroll's classic books plus new ones as you take on London's underworld and gather clues along the way. There's also "Foggy Albion" to explore - a parallel city full of thieves and extra puzzles.

The aim is to earn experience points in order to access new places and buildings in order to uncover evil plans of the Queen although this is the major drawback of the game. It takes a long time to build up the points you need to progress which pushes you into purchasing different things to open-up new locations and other items within the game.

Standard hidden object format

Mirrors of Albion follows a standard hidden object game format although if you're unfamiliar with the genre, an extensive tutorial takes you though how to play the game.

The animations in Mirrors of Albion are excellent and the hidden object gameplay is quite challenging. Some parts can be extremely difficult to work out, but you can purchase hints to help you. The sheer number of objects you need to collect is quite overwhelming though and purchasing hints, combined with purchasing points, mean Mirrors of Albion can end up costing a lot to play.

You can exchange crystals for progress and energy points but you simply can't collect enough to play the game at a reasonable speed.

Bättre än de flesta men det kommer att kosta dig

Om du gillar gömda objektspel är Mirrors of Albion ett av de bättre runt men låt dig inte luras att tro att det är gratis - du kommer att spendera ganska mycket för att faktiskt komma någonstans.
