About this game

Hidden City is a hidden object detective adventure for players who enjoy cosy mystery games, seek-and-find puzzles, story-led quests and richly detailed scenes. Explore a mystical Victorian city, search for hidden objects, follow clues, gather evidence, solve puzzles, meet unique characters and uncover magical secrets in the City of Shadows.

A new case is waiting in a city where every room, street, note and artefact can reveal part of the story. Follow the clues through elegant locations, investigate magical events and enjoy a mystery adventure built around atmosphere, discovery and character-driven quests.

🕵️‍♂️ What clues will you uncover?

Search atmospheric scenes filled with hidden items, evidence, notes, artefacts, keys, symbols, curiosities and visual clues. Every location supports the investigation and rewards players who enjoy looking carefully through detailed environments.

Explore foggy streets, elegant halls, manor-like rooms, curious shops, gardens, arcades, laboratories and magical districts. The city feels mysterious and inviting, giving each object search a clear story purpose.

🔎 Search modes for every detective

Hidden City keeps the main investigation fresh with several ways to search:

✔️ Words mode: Classic hidden object searching using text lists.
✔️ Silhouettes mode: Shape-based hidden picture challenges.
✔️ Night mode: Focused clue hunting in dim locations using a spotlight.
✔️ Pairs mode: Matching identical or logically related objects to test your attention.

These modes make the game a strong fit for players who enjoy seek-and-find adventures, detective puzzles, hidden picture challenges and visual mystery games.

🧩 Puzzles, mini-games and mystery challenges

The core search experience is supported by puzzle modes that add variety and help move the wider mystery forward.
Take a break from the main investigation and play through:

👁️ Spot-the-difference: Compare two scenes using sharp observation.
💎 Match-3 levels: Crystal and gem matching for colourful puzzle breaks.
🧠 Brain teasers: Logic mini-games, memory challenges and story-driven riddles.

This makes Hidden City a natural choice for players who want a cosy detective game with story, clever mini-games and mystery puzzles woven into the investigation.

📜 Story-led quests and artefact collections

Follow narrative-driven quests, character stories, special cases and event investigations as the City of Shadows slowly reveals its secrets. Assemble artefact collections, solve anomalies, complete requests and unlock rewards that help you continue your detective journey.

Every quest connects detailed scenes, mystery puzzles, magical discoveries and story progression into one cohesive adventure.

✨ Play Hidden City your way

📶 Play offline: Continue your investigation anywhere, even without an internet connection.
📖 Follow the story: Return to character quests, detective cases and magical events as the mystery unfolds.
🔄 Regular updates: Discover new cases, quests, search scenes and special events added over time.
📱 Cross-device sync: Save your progress and switch between your devices.

☕ A cosy mystery tone

Hidden City is mysterious and captivating, but the experience is built around elegant detective intrigue, magical secrets and inviting atmospheres rather than scares or dark thriller themes.
Spot the difference, solve challenging puzzles and unravel the mystery!

I love this game and have bonded with my mom over it. However, some things need to change due to how long it's been around: the monster treasury system has always felt pay to win, everything not the main game has the same bland backgrounds, and the feels overbearing at times when you are exposed to later aspects/collectables so early. I still love this game, but it feels very outdated, with the plots often feeling overdone or bland. Holiday events and standard locations have the most change.

It’s great to know you and your mom are enjoying the game together! We appreciate your thoughts on the monster treasury system and visuals, as they help us improve.

I am thoroughly hooked. The biggest issue is running out of energy and that it takes so long to regenerate. I am at level 200, so locations are expensive, and while I occasionally purchase some rubies and a 30 minute energy charge, it isn't enough to play as much as I'd like. Especially on weekends, like now, when there are several competitions going. I currently have too little energy to enter any location. 😞

I like playing the game but hate that u have to purchase items sometimes. I will never purchase frome the G5 store again as they double charged me $106..74 & overdrew my account & never replaced my money. I'm on a fixed income & can purchase once a month & they never refunded my money so that put a hurt on me & they stopped responding to me, so bcareful when u purchase from the G5 store. I never have any problems with the Google playstore. VERY DISAPPOINTED n the G5 store. u still owe me $106.74
