This new Hidden Object Game is a definite hit receiving excellent reviews all over the gaming world. If you're of the younger generation, and you've even heard of Sweeney Todd, you likely relate it to the most recent portrayal of the infamous character in Tim Burton's "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street." Though no one really knows for sure whether he really existed or an urban legend born out of someone's morbid imagination, the character has certainly had a long life. In 1846 Sweeney Todd was an antagonistic character in Thomas Prest's short story, "The String of Pearls: A Romance," which debuted in a "penny dreadful" series in The People's Periodical.

The character has since been featured in several films, musicals, and Broadway shows over the years. It is now the basis for Penny Dreadful's Sweeney Todd, a spectacular new hidden object game that players are hoping is only the beginning of a thrilling series.

To sum it up for those who have no clue what Sweeney Todd is all about, he was allegedly a London barber in the eighteenth century who would murder his clients by slitting their throats, and as if that were not bad enough, his method for disposing of his victims was gruesome, yet genius. He sent them over to his pie making lady friend, making for a grisly special recipe.

As the story goes in Penny Dreadful's Sweeney Todd, players take on the role of a London policeman who must investigate the mystery of a missing sailor named Mark so he may be reunited with his fiance' Johanna. Strangely, people have been claiming sightings of the missing sailor on London streets, until most recently.

Players will unravel the mystery by navigating their way through each chapter, eventually piecing the clues together by finding all of the evidence on the list for each chapter. Players will have a blast making their way through the myriad of clever and amusing puzzles varying in such way that they never grow tiresome or monotonous.

As reviewers are repeatedly reiterating, the graphics, ambiance, sound, feel and overall game play experience is absolutely superior in the world of hidden object games. It will challenge even the most seasoned HOG player and keep them busy for hours on end, approximately four to six hours, even if some of the puzzles or cut scenes.
