As an introduction Hidden Shadows is the newest game in Facebook developed by Zynga. This is base on hidden object game as their second addition on this genre next to Hidden Chronicles. This time they made it with thrill and suspense by using supernatural and criminal investigation as its storyline. Sounds familiar? Yes this is a game-like Criminal Case. We can't deny that due to the popularity of Criminal Case, Zynga developed their own version. Like what I've said Zynga only their own HOG before Pretty Simple Games release their but because of sleepy concept of hidden object game, players didn't appreciated it well. To fix the problem and cultivate the potential of this kind of game, Pretty Simple Games release Criminal Case, with the criminal investigatory theme, you will never feel sleepy playing it. And the result, it has 10 million players and 25 million likers on Facebook.
So this time, Zynga doubled it, not only criminal investigation but also paranormal activities. I'm sure it is more thriller than the first one. And because the game was developed by Zynga it maximize the social essence of the game like, exchanging gift links, massive quest request from friends, adding friends, getting free items daily and of course more on content.
