From the Main Menu, you can Play or Quit the game, choose your Options and your Profile.

You will learn the red-eyed statues are dangerous and should be avoided, but the friendly green-eyed statues will assist you and even accompany you in your Inventory.

In Hidden Object Scenes, when you choose an object, it will morph to exit the scene and then remove itself from the list.

Since there is no time limit, if you are patient, you should not have a problem.
