Mystery Manor: Hidden Objects review

Mystery Manor is the closest rival to Hidden City for search variety. Game Insight lists four ways to search a room: by words, by silhouettes, by phenomena and in a Zodiac mode, and new rooms, quests and characters arrive in regular free updates. The setting is a mansion full of ghosts, monsters and secret rooms, with a detective story that touches on old crimes. Mini-games and a match-3 adventure fill the gaps between searches. Like Hidden City, it works offline, and it runs on iPhone, iPad, Apple silicon Macs and Apple Vision Pro with iOS 13 or later, which helps owners of older devices. It ranks fifth because the story is lighter than Criminal Case or Pearl's Peril, it supports fewer languages and the developer has not listed accessibility features. Packs start at $0.99 on the US App Store. We compared documented features and published prices.
