Vermillion Watch: Moorgate Accord Collector's Edition

Mysteries are quite exciting for everyone, although it depends on the person and the type of mystery. Hence, not many are willing to investigate serial killer-related deaths, nor explore supposedly haunted buildings that may contain spirits. On the other hand, the thrill of the hunt can overcome the fear sometimes, depending on how close you are to the truth.

Vermillion Watch: Moorgate Accord is a hidden object adventure game in which your goal is to solve a few mysteries and tackle the intricacies of a secret society. Granted, the general gameplay formula is more or less the same as in every other game in the genre, but there are subtle differences when it comes to the puzzles and the type of situations you have to deal with along the way.

It all starts with meeting between the main character and his uncle that goes terribly wrong. As such, a huge creature attacks his uncle and ends his days, but not before the man manages to pass a message to his nephew. As it turns out, the old man was a member of a powerful secret society, and it is up to you to fill his role and solve the monster mystery at the same time.

The gameplay should feel familiar to every hidden object fan out there, in the sense that the mechanics are the same. Hence, you jump from scene to scene searching for useful items, while also solving puzzles and tackling actual hidden object sequences. Unfortunately, most of the puzzles are quite simple and disappointing, except for a few that might put your brain to work.

As for the graphics, everything is about as shiny and detailed as you would expect, especially when it comes to level design and the attention to details. Every room and location is full of interesting items, not to mention designed to really feel like an actual place. The music, sound effects and voice acting contribute to the atmosphere as well.

In the end, Vermillion Watch: Moorgate Accord is a treat for every fan of the genre, especially if you like mysteries and a bit of darkness to go along with them. On the other hand, there’s nothing new in the gameplay department.
