The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 1.0
Youda Legend: The Curse of the Amsterdam Diamond is a beautiful hidden-object game in which you explore the City of Amsterdam, looking for clues that could help you solve a mystery. As the story unfolds, you will see different hidden-object scenes where you must find the items from a list. Some of them are placed in your inventory for later use (for example, pieces of paper that later can be assembled to discover a map), and other objects, which have nothing to do with the story, simply get crossed out. On the first scene, you will also be asked to find a compass that is necessary for providing hints, (these are unlimited, but take some time to recharge). There are also diamonds scattered around, which help the compass recharge more quickly, so the more you find, the better for you.
The scenes are wonderfully created and the objects can be clearly seen, but are cleverly hidden. Unfortunately, the game only provides one mode; but it is also full of puzzles which provide the real challenge to the game, since hidden-object games themselves are fun, but not really challenging. Cracking codes and assembling puzzle pieces are the most common ones.
All in all, Youda Legend: The Curse of the Amsterdam Diamond is a wonderful combination of hidden-object games and puzzles with decent graphics that make playing the game a very enjoyable experience. |
