Faircroft's Antiques: The Heir of Glen Kinnoch
Faircroft’s Antiques: The Heir of Glen Kinnoch Collector’s Edition delivers a 10-plus hour hidden object adventure that’s just as fun as the initial game in the series: Treasure of Treffenburg. More variety with minigames and puzzles is welcomed, as is better incorporation of hidden items to the plot. Only a handful of bugs knock the game down, but not enough to stop me from recommending it to genre fans.

“Beautifully done and great story-lines.”
“[i]Faircroft's Antiques: The Heir of Glen Kinnoch[/i] is the second of five installments in the [i]Faircroft's Antiques[/i] hidden object games series and is quite a noticeable step up from the first game in terms of graphics’ sharpness and story cohesion.”
“While in normal HOGs the bonus chapter doesn’t leave much impact on me since it’s just an appendix to the main plot, I really loved the way [i]Faircroft's Antiques: The Heir of Glen Kinnoch[/i] gives some sort of closure to each of the characters, and wraps all storylines in a very nice and satisfying way.”
“Each part is a standalone story with no link between them.”
“Because you can play the scenes in any order you like, the text is written in a slightly generic way that prevents it from throwing a wrench in the overall story.”
“This puzzle & click game is a string of hidden object puzzle scenes tied together loosely with a story accompanied by incessant background music; the puzzle scenes are for the most part repetitive and become monotonous quickly.”
