Spintop Games has released yet another hidden-object game, Escape Rosecliff Island, which has already caused quite a stir around fans. Just like other titles from the same category, Escape Rosecliff Island brings its own twists that set it apart from its competitors.

The storyline is both simple and at the same time gives the game a precise purpose, which is that of escaping the island from where you have been trapped. As far as the story goes, you find yourself stranded on a deserted and remote island after you manage to survive a shipwreck. When you wake up, you try to search for various objects that you can use to escape the place and at the same time you explore every bizarre scenario that you encounter.

What makes the title even more special than other hidden-object releases is that the gameplay music really sets the mood for a mystery and creepy island. You will find that each location that you search comes with its own soundtrack that makes the game even more exciting.

The places have been carefully designed and the high level of detailed graphics makes it a real challenge to search for the desired items. Escape Rosecliff Island also has a series of mini puzzle games that you must solve in order to unlock certain objects or go to the next set of locations.

The puzzles are not always as simple as you might think, and you will often find yourself spending some serious time solving them. During this time, you have to keep in mind that each item that you discover will bring you closer to your escape from this traitorous island.

Whenever you get stuck on an item and you simply can’t find it, you can always use the Hints. They are rechargeable, but you can speed the process up by revealing multiple objects one after another. This feature can make your life easier, especially when you are on a timed trial.

Besides the fact that your main objective is to get off the island and find all the items that you are looking for, the title also presents you with the opportunity to unlock a side-game mode by collecting all the locks that you can find. Each map has two of them and you have to collect twenty five so that you can play a mystery game, and fifty so that you can unlock the Unlimited Seek & Find mode. This makes Escape Rosecliff Island one of the few hidden-object titles that will keep you busy for a long time.

Playing Escape Rosecliff Island has proven to be more of a challenge than expected, mainly because each time you start the game and you play the same map, you have to search for different items than the last time. This is a great feature, because this way boredom and routine are being avoided, thus keeping the game more challenging.

All in all, Escape Rosecliff Island from Spintop Games is, beyond doubt, a big hit and, if you want to try it yourself before you buy the full 24.99-dollar version, go through the 60-minute gameplay trial and see whether you get hooked on solving puzzles and searching for hidden objects.
