| Third Person Editor's note: This game is one of a six-part series of Christian-based, family-oriented games suitable for ages 8 and above. Based on the Adventures in Odyssey radio series, these games promote and reinforce values and virtues rather than encourage violence and mayhem. The Treasure of the Incas features three characters from Odyssey: Whit, Eugene and Connie. "Here we have a game that addresses faith, determination, and redemption; it also emphasizes the skills of logic and reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking...a mystery has developed involving Eugene's archeologist parents, who disappeared while on an expedition when Eugene was seven years old. Accusations are discovered that just before they vanished, Eugene's parents abandoned the rest of their team and made off with an Incan treasure. "In the opening cut scene, a rock bearing a note is thrown through Eugene's bedroom window...The note demands the return of a stolen map, presumably to the Incan treasure. Eugene knows nothing about such a map. "In the course of solving the mystery, Eugene, Connie and Whit sort artifacts, decipher a journal written in code, and build a self-activated camera that takes pictures automatically at set intervals and transmits them to Whit's computer. They also fly to Peru, navigate through a jungle maze, unscramble maps, and solve a puzzle that uses prisms to redirect beams of light. "All in all, Treasure offers an engaging mystery that's served up in an absolutely charming package. I had a great deal of fun playing it! " |
