A Gypsy's Tale: The Tower of Secrets
Platform: Mac, Windows
A Gypsy's Tale: The Tower of Secrets is a fantasy-themed hidden object title from Amaranth Games, creator of Grimm's Hatchery and the Aveyond series of role playing games. You play the part of Reylin of Winderalth, a gypsy who has a strong sense of magic of both the good and wicked kinds. You are hired by a monk to locate a lost tower and rescue a girl within, but getting to that tower involves solving loads of puzzles and working your way through the maze-like landscape that surrounds the mysterious place.
A Gypsy's Tale borrows a few gameplay ideas from The Mystery of the Crystal Portal and the Treasure Seekers series, namely the "objects as containers" element. Most puzzles require you to use an item or two on a specific object. Use the shears to chop down the vines, place the amulet on the pedestal, etc. Before you can grab these key items, however, the game opens up a circular menu around the object. Each menu pictures several other objects you must find and place in the appropriate slot before you can add the key item to your inventory.
You'll need to do a bit of wandering to complete your tasks in this game, and as you progress, your exploration area will gradually increase. Most of what you need is nearby, you just have to switch scenes by clicking on the glowing white parts of the screen. In addition to locating and picking up key inventory items, you'll also gather crystals, tiny pieces of shiny currency that help complete your map (which becomes important as you open up more areas to explore) and also function as currency in the store you eventually find.
Analysis: Enchanting visuals are one of this game's strongest features, and you'll have to help yourself to a few staring sessions when you encounter animated characters in the game. The fantasy world feels surprisingly complete as you shuffle through its dark pieces of scenery, and Amaranth did a superb job weaving the story into the experience. This isn't a world created as an excuse to host a hidden object game, it's a hidden object game that takes place in this world.
A Gypsy's Tale: The Tower of Secrets features a lot of the famous "do this in this manner because I told you so" moments where you complete arbitrary objectives just because the game says you must. Strangely, though, you won't feel accosted, as somehow the storyline and setting make these seemingly pointless requirements feel right at home. Gather a bunch of birds so you can pick up a key? Why not?!
As with many hidden object games, you'll encounter your fair share of unfair items that are a little too well-disguised. Fortunately you aren't punished for misclicks, allowing you the freedom to run the cursor all over the screen, and the refilling hint timer is just as generous as it needs to be.
A Gypsy's Tale is a strong hidden object game filled with fantasy and wonder. It takes the genre one step closer to the role playing realm, putting an emphasis on exploration, story and content as opposed to adventure-style puzzles, and you'll appreciate the level of detail Amaranth Games went to to fill out this beautifully illustrated world.

A Gypsy's Tale: The Tower of Secrets
General Tips:
From the main menu you can play or exit the game, view the credits, and select your options.
Click on the Options Button to adjust the music and sound volume, decide if you want the custom cursor, and choose window versus full screen mode.
You can view the opening scene or skip it.
As you start the game you will be asked if you wish to see the tutorial.
Scene Navigation:
If you play in window mode, there is an auto pause feature otherwise you can pause the game by using the menu button at the top left of the scene.
The number of Crystals to collect for a location is shown next to the menu button.
Your current location is next and the box will also show you where you can go when you exit the scene.
The number of tasks to complete is next to the location and another options button is available so you can make changes without going to the main menu.
The help button with the picture of Reylin is for general help or as a reminder of what you should do next.
If you have already been to an area, and obtained the Map Piece for that area you can use your Map to go directly there.
Your inventory is shown in the left center bar at the bottom of the screen.
If you have more than four items in your inventory, arrows will appear for you to scroll through the items.
Your current tasks are shown in the right portion of the center bar.
The crystal pouch shows the number of the Crystals you currently have.
The hints are unlimited but the hint button takes time to recharge in between each use.
Screenshot
Cursors:
Sparkles appear when there is something for you to do in an area of the scene.
Your cursor will turn into a magnifying glass to give you a close up of an area.
A hand will attach to your cursor when you can pick something up.
Gears attached to your cursor mean you will get a key object circle.
Your cursor shows a Game piece when there is a mini game for you to solve.
Your cursor shows a face attachment when one of the characters wants to talk.
To go to a new location move your mouse until it turns into an arrow.
Crystals:
Crystals allow you to purchase items at the Brenn General Store and obtain Map Pieces.
Different color Crystals have different values.
Collecting all the Crystals in a location adds a Map Piece to your Map for that location.
Crystals will be marked with red circles and a reminder to collect them will be in your task bar.
Tasks:
Your task bar lists your current tasks and are not just for your current location so you may be required to go elsewhere to complete them.
As you progress through the game entries will be added and removed from the list.
If you can't progress, make sure you have done everything you needed to do in previous locations.
Be sure to check for any cursor changes in a scene and to see if you can open doors and containers because there is no penalty for too many clicks.
When you use your Shears to clear away foliage it usually takes more than one click to get rid of all of it.
Key Objects:
A Key Object consists of one large circle surrounded by several small panels. Each small panel contains an object for you to find.
To open the Key Object click on the object you are trying to obtain and click on the circle if you wish to close it.
When you locate an item for a Key Object pick it up and place it in the large circle.
Mini Games:
Mini Games are used to open a locked area or container.
Most Mini Games have a "Skip Button".
Click the HELP button in the top left corner of the Mini Game to see the instructions.
Characters:
Sometimes the people you encounter along the way give you tasks to complete, items to use, hints, or maybe they just feel like talking.
Map:
The map is your easy navigational device between locations so it is important to collect all the Crystals at that location to get your Map Piece.
