So this would be a yes recommendation if it was not for the bugged Master Detective Achievement which the appears to have been an on going bug since the game came out almost a year ago and still has not been fixed. The actual game play is fine. The art and levels are solid. The Worded play hint system is interesting. However seeing how instead of fixing the bugged achievement they released DLC does not sit right …

Relaxing experience, perfect for lovers of finding hidden objects. The game has high interactivity and cute, charming, hand-drawn art style. Each scene greets you with a stunning presentation. Next you need to find certain objects and one “Secret objects” (no icon/non-descript item). There is a clue attached to each object that hints at its location. All objects on the screen are interactive and show little …

Having played a large number of hidden object games, HTT2 is another solid entry in the category of HOG featuring "cryptic clues". The base game includes 4 eras, each with 8 maps featuring a range of hidden objects to locate. The clues are generally well balanced, with the odd one being slightly troublesome to track down. That said, as a sequel, it doesn't really offer much over the first game in the series. Each …

Having played the first Hidden Through Time along with all its DLC, I can confidently say that Hidden Through Time 2: Myths & Magic is a significant step up in both challenge and enjoyment. The ability to change time and weather adds a fantastic layer of complexity, making the search for hidden objects even more engaging. This game is perfect for casual, relaxing fun. You can jump in and out whenever you have some …

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Deleted all my progress, now is forcing you to make an account with them. There's an option to sign in with steam which doesn't work. You also have to agree to a new user agreement. Very scummy.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →FPS games don't do anything for me anymore. I have turned to relaxing puzzle and hidden object games. This is an excellent sequel to Hidden Through Time, similar to Where's Waldo and Hidden Folks! - Recommended
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun for the whole family. My favorite part of this game is when my children walk by and casually point out a hidden object I couldn't find.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I liked the game series before I didn't. Incredible CPU hog. Be mindful of data sharing/privacy when playing the game. Read those pesky EULAs and related agreements... This make me wonder if this data harvesting is what causes the CPU spike while in-game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I somewhat enjoyed the first game in the series, but this sequel delivers nothing significantly new or good. Especially because the first game (as well as this one) allows for online puzzles created by others, there doesn't seem to be a good reason to buy this one. That's not to say that Hidden Through Time 2 doesn't try to innovate. It adds some more settings. As with the first game, they are not really about traveling through history, just cobbled-together, silly clichés. Forget about…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Asked for a refund after 24 minutes. I loved the first Hidden Through Time and I was so happy to try this one. But what a disappointment. Some of the characters move a lot, like thrashing in place and it just draws my focus all the time. It is difficult to look for the hidden objects when you are looking at the highly mobile characters / animals. Really annoying. Another thing that put me off was the falling snow. Another moving thing that draws my focus and makes it more difficult to focus…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I loved the first game, even bought all the DLC. Unfortunately, there is something very wrong with this game in 2 specific areas: First, it sends my gaming laptop into hyper over drive. The fans are spinning like my entire house is on fire. My setup isn’t elite, but it’s VERY capable. I play newer Unreal-based games with no trouble. I’ve honestly *never* heard my fans spin that hard. It’s a hidden object game, with very simple graphics. You should be able to play it on a phone, let alone a…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unfortunately I cannot recommend this when HTT1 is just much better. There is some small improvement in the map making process but everything else seems to have taken a big step backwards.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An entire month has passed since the release, and I really hoped the developers will fix the ussues the game had at launch. Unfortunately, they didn't. I loved the first game and was really excited for a sequel. At first, everything looked lovely. New models and being able to pick colours for them, animations, different seasons... Great stuff! However, the ussues started to occure quite soon. Little bugs here or there, like models dissapearing from the search list or hints being mixed up. The…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hidden through time 2 The title of the game might already tell you a little bit what this game is about. It's a hidden object game that will take you through the myths and magic! The game is visually pleasing. With a soft color pallet that sooths the eyes. The quirky looking characters and their movements combined with the slightly sarcastic way the hints are presented makes it a really fun game to play. In addition to only being able to play the levels the devs have created, you can also…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Like Hidden through Time 1, enjoy the play, but disappoint at HTT2. this suppose to be a leisure game, but HTT2 make it a hardcore game, I don'e find relax by playing it, but anxious. First, the items to be found are generally much smaller than normal items in the game. Second, the items to be found most only appear half of it, and hide below something else, or on top of a normal size of item. And there some bugs too, even I found the item, it's hard to click on it, you need try many…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →🎬Gameplay Video🎬 https://youtu.be/dPrKDXcYfN4 Hidden Through Time is back for its second installment, based around The Tales of The Arabian Nights; Greek Mythology; The Middle Ages and Arthurian Legends; and The Magical retro feel of the 1980's. With a subtle change from the original, each scene is preceded by an introductory tale, voiced quite nicely, and the story continues throughout the chapter. I think it is a bit overstated to call it a story, it was more of an introduction to events…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The first one was good, so I got this one. It's... less good. And clicking on some stuff makes other stuff move. You have to zoom in and out a lot more, and even then, clicking on something doesn't always register. It's just... not as good as the original
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love the concept and the artwork and interactivity is amazing. But that kind of adds to the frustration level the more you play. With so many things to click "open" and interact with, it eventually makes finding what you need a chore-fest of clicking everything. Fun at first, tiresome after X amount of levels.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The BUGGIEST of the entire series. So many visual glitches.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love it! It's way more involved than other hidden object's. It's only other competitor is the Full of Cats series. The Hidden In... series is close too. You get plenty of maps to play through and I'm surprised I spent as much time as I did, even as a second screen. I love how there's movement in each scene, and how you get 2 cycles per day, and how you can click through the different floors of a building. The themes are great! Also being able to make your own maps and share them online is a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →OK, we are talking about a low price game here that is of the "hidden objects" genre. Not the kind of game I normally play (For Managed Democracy!) but it was a cute fun diversion I picked up for the wife where we could burn a bit of time together in mindless low grade fun exploring the main game maps, and those created by other users. The music was nice, the animations were nice, the maps were nice. If you are a "Hello Kitty" fan like my wife is, or you are married and want to spend a bit…

positive · AI labelView post →I'm usually the target audience for this genre on Steam. But HTT2:M&M just didn't click. I completed two stages of campaign, and both were tedious. It's first time ever, in two dozen Hidden Object type games, that I had a game refunded (instead of 100%ing it). Devs, this is kind of game is something people play to unwind. 80% easy, 20% challenge. Not for a challenge in finding every single item because they are so hidden, you have to rely on environmental and textual clues to even have a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I loved Hidden Through Time and was very excited about this new version. My negative rating is mainly because I finished the game, but the achievements weren't updated.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →nice chilled out game but i have to say i liked the 1st one better
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really enjoyed the first installment of Hidden Through Time, so needless to say I told myself not to expect much from the sequel (been burned too many times by subpar sequels in the past). Turns out, not only is this new run just as good as the original, I might even go so far as to say it's better! I'm really enjoying the new mechanics and I'm finding that some of the items are actually pretty difficult to find, even with the hints. Overall, HTT2 is a relaxing game that's cozy but with…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So far I'm not loving this. Its really... well just rubbish. I shall try to continue on with it as I like to finish a game but its not something I'm looking forward to doing O.o
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's hard not to compare this to the original game, so I won't do that. I did enjoy the 1st game, tho more on the community built maps and making my own than the story. I'm disappointed that rather than expanding the sets of the 1st game, they went for a different game which is nearly identical to the original, but with some added "twists". The good: - it's a hidden object game with hidden objects; - the art style is still enjoyable and the level design is creative in a fun way; - the new sets…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hidden Through Time 2: Myths & Magic is a very good hidden game where you have to find objects, peoples, etc... It's really funny because you can interact with everything and they do funny sounds, there's a lots of levels from differents times and landscapes. I highly recommend it!!! 💗💗💗
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've played the first Hidden Through Time and all of it's DLC and I must say this one is way more challenging and fun! The fact you can change time and weather is a cool addition!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is what I expect from hidden objects game: - appealing graphics - not very difficult settings of pieces, but still no option to hint anything - funny/interesting theme or story behind it. It could have more complex 'side quests' of sort, but still I really enjoyed it!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hidden through Time 2: Myths and Magic is a delightful, hand-drawn hidden object game with levels set in different fantastical worlds. Players will search, decipher clues, and uncover hidden objects, but also create and share their own worlds! It is a fantastic example of a hidden object game, featuring a variety of hidden objects, cute artwork and adorable sound design. It has all the familiar and loved elements of the first game but also a selection of fun additions that elevate it from its…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A quality evolution of the game series from this developer, I was highly impressed. The new features really enhance the gameplay and scene based storytelling. It is also worth noting that while the game has a lot of DLC, you can still play community maps that use DLC assets even if you don't have the DLC yourself - you just can't use those assets when building your own maps, or play through the associated campaigns. A highly end user friendly approach, in my opinion. Can happily recommend…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have only finished the Greek Mythology levels at the time of this review, but I wanted to say this game is a delight. It was wonderful playing this game while my husband was near (he's really into Greek Mythology) and the team that made this game put in SOOOOO many cool details from Greek Mythology. It's not just the aesthetic of Greek Mythology or just some characters that we can recognize. There's actual parts of the stories in there. I didn't know enough about Greek Mythology to catch…

neutral · AI labelView post →Hidden Through Time 2: Myths & Magic isn't as fun as the first and is confusing. Refunded This is an updated review. This game ended up in a bundle and I decided to try it again. My original review holds true, it isn't as fun as the first and is confusing, but I 100% completed it. The addition of the secret object was a problem. Not with finding it, but not having a way to tell whether or not you had already found it. The only way to tell is at the end of a level and to have missing objects.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Even better than the first. I love that objects are hidden in different seasons/weather. Also love that the objects have associated riddles. This aspect makes it more than just a hidden object game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Another cute finding game. Will admit the visual quality went up on this one compared to the first game but some other things downgraded. In the first game every object you clicked on made a noise or interaction , in this one i'd say about 70% of things you see will make a noise. Also it's become more annoying to click to view inside buildings. Always can view online maps if you run out of things to find in the base game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm really disappointed. I played the first game in the series and really enjoyed it, although it was quite bugged. I was hoping that the sequel will be improved, but it's not. The architect section is actually frustrating. When I started doing my map I wanted to put a cat in it, but cats and many other animals weren't available. When I restarted the game, animals section increased and there were cats to choose. It happend again not only with animals, but also special effects like mist or fire.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hidden Through Time 2 does a great job of taking the good stuff from the first game but adding more to it. My favorite feature is that certain items can only be found in certain weather. Luckily the game already tells you what weather you can find those objects in. It's fun to see the environments in different weather and it's fun to see how the different characters move within the same scene. Another improvement is more of an overt narrative in each of the game's four campaigns. I've…
