Hidden Object Games
Funnily enough, the essence of hidden object games is exactly what the name suggests: your main task is to find hidden objects or pictures. It might sound easy, but hidden object games are often like searching for a well-disguised person in a huge crowd of people. Sometimes they are about finding differences in 2 pictures that look identical at first glance. Some hidden object games involve looking for tiny clues that will eventually lead you to solve a great mystery. The common feature of all these hidden object games is that, to reach the next level, you must find some hidden object or clue.

Hidden Object Games: what are they?
So, imagine this. You're alone at home and you're terribly bored. You flick through the 150 satellite channels but, as usual, there's nothing good on. So you sit down at your computer and try to find something interesting to do. The Internet - of course. You go online and check through the user loaded videos - and, as ill luck would have it, there's nothing new. The funny photos of cute little kitties are just no good today. You've checked your website, your friends' websites, your facebook updates and your appointment book, but - surprise! - you're still infinitely bored. And then an idea strikes you. Why not play a computer game? You search for some interesting online games, and you stumble upon hidden object games. But... what on earth are they?
There are roughly 3 main categories of hidden object games: Hidden Clue Games, Hidden Picture games and Seek and Find Games.
Hidden Clue Games
A version of this type of hidden object games is the board game Clue. You will have most certainly watched those popular CSI (crime scene investigation) TV shows that are all about finding hidden clues. Now you can actually take the role of an investigator in a computer game. If you like mysteries and detectives, you are sure to enjoy this genre of hidden object games which are available both online and for download. The attractive thing about these hidden object games is that they don't just have you searching for clues, they also have you thinking. You can spend hours looking for lost places, solving crimes and taking part in other exciting investigations.
Hidden Picture Games
This type of hidden object games is quite similar to the entertainment activities you find at the back of a magazine. Take, for example, the Highlight magazine with a hidden picture game in every issue. Now you can play these games online and you have to click on the object once you find it. There's normally a side panel with a list of things to find and each time you get one right, it is crossed out. You might think that these hidden object games are boring, but you couldn't be more wrong - try playing one and you'll be amazed to discover that these hidden object games are terribly addictive!
Seek and Find Games
Seek and find games might sound a little like hidden clue games, but they are not exactly the same - in these hidden object games your task is not to solve a case but to search for objects that will help you reveal a secret or lead you to your next destination. Seek and find games are like searching for hidden treasures. Sometimes they are scattered all around the world, and sometimes they are all in your own house. Once you locate all the hidden objects, you might find an ancient world or discover an old family secret.
