Use the switch to the right of the door to turn off the power to the fan.

If youre tired of dime novel-quality storylines, cheesy settings that go from haunted mansion to haunted castle and back, and protagonists whose missing family members you couldnt care less about, this game is your savior.

Snark Busters doesnt pretend to be anything new and original, but by doing that, it succeeds at both.

Its a hidden object game with wide appeal, enticing fans of the genre and encouraging everyone else to hop in and give the genre a try.

Kira isnt one to take a locked window at face value, and soon she discovers not only a way out, but an entire universe hiding in her mirror.

This gives way to a new quest of grand proportions: the hunt for the elusive Snark.

In some of the slots are silhouettes of items that have been sliced into sections.

As you would expect, the shards are rotated and scaled about and placed in devious locations, so you wont always be able to find them with ease.

But it wouldnt be much of a game if it was all piled up and neatly labeled from the get-go, would it.

A good 80 of the items youll need to find are strangely obvious, almost as if they were put there so you could get that rush of clicking a dozen things in a row.

After that, its time to scour the scene for the remaining pieces, something that often feels a little too difficult.

Got one more slice of that lantern to find Too bad, the hint system wants you to grab that rake handle.

Youll never really get stuck, though, as its always just a matter of time before a new hint is at your disposal.

From its mild steampunk setting to the childlike tasks you complete, youll be driven to keep playing the game from beginning to end.

Sometimes changing an object in one version will change the similar object on the other side.
