Treasure Seekers:
The Time Has Come
Platform: Mac, Windows
More Treasure Seekers! The latest installment in the hidden object series, Treasure Seekers: The Time Has Come, preserves the story and layout of previous games and features a slightly older Nelly and Tom. Not only have the characters grown up, but Artogon seems to have matured bits of the gameplay as well, featuring a better-crafted series of puzzles and more interesting locations to search through.
Avoiding some of the plot traps many hidden object games fall victim to, Treasure Seekers 4 stays away from haunted mansion/mental institution territory and instead opts for a time-traveling adventure. The ancient Mayans predicted the end of the world would happen in 2012, and in this game, you can help prevent that from happening. Switch between two time periods so you can investigate events and affect things in the future from the past, all by using a magical ring.
Gameplay is traditional Treasure Seekers fare, with Artogon's lovely "container items" filling out a good portion of the puzzles. One of the first you'll encounter is a simple generator needed to power some lights. In order to get it to work, you must find half a dozen parts scattered throughout the scene. Click on the generator and a round menu opens up with each item displayed as a slightly blurry icon. Find the item, drag it to the generator, and you've filled in a slot! It's simple, it's intuitive, and it looks great in the game.
Apart from servicing container items, the rest of the puzzles in Treasure Seekers focus on solving basic tasks using a few items from nearby areas. You'll need to travel a bit in order to find what you need (especially later in the game), but a refilling hint meter ensures you never get stuck, and small white "sparkles" appear on objects that are important for your search.
Analysis: The Treasure Seekers series has become a staple hidden object game since its introduction a few years ago. Not only are the container items interesting, but the games focus on a pair of siblings and their adventures, telling a good story that shows surprising continuity between sequels. The villain and some of the plot points come across as a bit contrived (gotta appreciate Totenkraft's sense of style, though!), but the whole thing is put together so well, you never really mind.
As is becoming the practice of many modern hidden object games, Treasure Seekers: The Time Has Come features both casual and standard modes of play. The former features a faster hint timer and the above mentioned white sparkles, while the latter is a bit more difficult. Casual mode offers very little challenge, but it's great if you're only interested in kicking back and having a good time.
A great follow-up to the first Treasure Seekers games, with Artogon's seasoned hidden object/adventure hands creating an experience worthy of any casual gamer!
A Collector's Edition is also available and it includes a battery of extras, including wallpapers, a strategy guide, and concept art. Best of all, a bonus adventure is available to play, and it's actually a great addition to the game! Remember that Big Fish Game Club Members pay only $13.99 for Collector's Editions (or 2 club credits), and collector's editions count 3 card punches of 6 total needed for a free game.

If you start a new profile, you will have to choose your options again for that profile.
If you purchased the Collector's Edition, "Extras" include the Strategy Guide, which is also accessible from each scene, Concept Art, and Wallpaper.
In the Collector's Edition, you will see a screen giving you your choice of play and can check a box if you don't wish to see it each time you start the game. Extra Play will become available once you have completed Normal Play.
In Casual Mode, the Hint and Skip buttons charge faster and less time is required for illuminating the next collectable item.
Advanced Mode is suggested for experienced game players. The Hint and Skip buttons take long to recharge and most other hints are unavailable.
When you first begin the game, you will have a choice of using Interactive Help.
Each time you start the game, you will see the beginning cutscene unless you choose to skip it.
At the beginning of each chapter, you will also see the cutscene while the game is loading.
If you need further instructions for Puzzles or Mini Games, click on the "?" in the upper left corner of that screen.
When you Exit the game, your progress is automatically saved.
Be sure to check the screenshots for additional information.
Scene Navigation
There is no timer or click penalty in the main scenes, but don't click too much in the Hidden Object Scene or your cursor will go nuts for a while.
If you purchased the Collector's Edition, you can access the Strategy Guide in the upper left corner.
The top center area of the screen shows your location.
The upper right corner lets you access the Menu that gives you a choice of continuing the game, returning to the Main Menu, changing your Options, or restarting your current location.
If you choose to restart a location, you will need to replay the entire chapter.
Hints are located in the lower left corner.
Next to Hints are your Tasks to complete. The upper portion of the box shows how many tasks you have already completed and the total number that needs to be located for that chapter.
To the right of Tasks is your Inventory.
Once you find The Ring, it will be available next to your Inventory. The Ring is a Portal between Tom's present time in 1932 and the year 2012.
When it is available for use, the X-Glass will show up in the lower right corner.
Cursors
Your cursor will get different attachments as a clue to help you with your tasks.
An Eye cursor attachment means you should take a closer look at an area.
A cube means there is a Puzzle or Mini Game to play.
There are 3 types of hands shown in the screenshots: a fist means you can pick something up or pull something open; an open hand means you need to move something; a pointing hand helps you move levers, handles or knobs on items that need opening.
A blue arrow means you can follow it to another location.
A bubble with 3 dots in it means you need to talk to a person to find out important information.
Key Objects
Sometimes when you click on an item, you cannot immediately pick it up or use it because a circle appears that has other circles attached to it with several objects you need to find.
When you find one of the objects, it will not automatically go into the key object circle.
You need to place the objects in the circle and the small circle with that item will change color to tell you that you found it.
Once you find all the items in the small circles, the key object will be available to you.
Hidden Object Scenes
Hidden Object Scenes are marked in the screenshots because we will all have the same items to find but not in the same order.
As you pick up an item, another item will appear in your list until the list is complete.
Multiple items will be color coded.
All items to collect in the Hidden Object Scenes are marked and listed in the screenshots.
Items listed in blue require an additional task to collect them, such as opening another object, combining it with another object not on the list, or moving another object to see it.
You will come away with an Inventory item at the completion of the Hidden Object Scenes.
