Another chance to sit in front of your computer and explore some of the European Tour.

Big Adventure - Trip to Europe 10 offers you yet another opportunity to test your Hidden Object searching and mini game puzzle solving skills set in various locations.  As the title of this next product might indicate, you will be taken on a journey covering different European locations as you take part in a digital vacation.  In taking part of this trip around Europe, you will join a party of four that is made up of Helen and Robert with their two children named Lucy and Tom.

Providing you with a set route, which you need to follow, in order to make progress, your starting point begins as the train station at Barcelona where you will be introduced to the game's various types of action.  Each subsequent location that you visit will begin with  Hidden Object based tasks.  These tasks will be split between two levels or stages using the same scene that is overlaid by a panel running across the base.

Along with tools to supply a rechargeable Hint, Super Hint and Zoom features will be the required list of items to be found.  This list could be as single named items in text format, as a specific group or type of article, silhouette, parts of the scene or as images..  As well as finding the listed items, you might need to replace objects in their correct position within the scene.  Items coloured red in the list will need to be uncovered before being selected while those coloured blue will involve carrying out a specific task.  In some cases the required  list will be supplemented by a specific silhouette of an item to be fond as a bonus.

Each location scene will also contain a number of additional items to find as part of your search.  You can find a Raccoon wearing a fancy waistcoat and a stamp which will be automatically added to an album for viewing later.  There could also be an outbreak of sparkles indicating the presence of a secret area which could contain some of the items you need to find.  You can enter these secrets areas whenever the sparkles are visible.

Your journey will take you on a trip that will cover a wide area.  As mentioned you start off in Barcelona before visiting locations such as Potsdam, Bari, Berlin, Utrecht, Lyon, London, Corfu Island and Vienna.  After tackling the Hidden Object scenes at these various sites and others, you will be faced by a mini game puzzle. 

Apart from offering a one-line description of what is required, the puzzle will offer no assistance regarding a Hint or help.  The puzzles presented will be of a variety of challenges, You could be asked to arrange arrows to duplicate a pattern, spot the difference between scenes, move items around to create a scene, decorate cakes with different colours of icing, rebuild a smashed vase or sort postcards depending upon their theme subject matter.

After reaching your final destination, you can take a plane journey home or delay your return while tackling the various elements making up the title's bonus content.  These elements consist of 8 bonus levels, 8 bonus puzzles, 12 additional puzzles plus your stamp album and souvenirs purchased with the points earned during the game.  You also get a music player, wallpaper and a list of your achievements.

Prospective tourists can download this title from Gamehouse.com where it is priced at $19.99 or from Big Fish Games priced at £15.18.  The game requires a 1.6 GHz processor with 1024MB of RAM and703MB of hard disk space running Windows 7 and later.
