If you think the idea of finding hidden "golden triangles" is a bit lame (the cover of National Geographic is famous for its golden yellow frame), then think again. While that part of Lilly Wu is a little unlikely, the rest of the game is entertaining and very pretty.

Lilly is a forensic scientist who's been called in to research the famous terracotta warriors of Xi'an. Seems there's been a murder on the site; is it an ancient murder or a modern mystery?

You know what's coming next: lots of searching for hidden objects. Lilly's PDA flashes green when there's a new quest in the current room, and red when the quest is in another location you've visited. It's common to be moving back and forth through the rooms to solve single quests, though it's always obvious whether the item you want is in the current room or not. Thankfully!

Stunning graphics balance the somewhat easier than average gameplay. Most of the objects are easy to spot for seasoned HOG gamers, and the sparkling area of the screen means you'll never waste time looking for what to do with the objects once you have them.

Lilly Wu is a fun game, EXCLUSIVE to GameHouse. That means you'll have to join Fun Ticket for a free 30-day trial to get the game to keep for FREE! Great deal for a very satisfying mystery HOG quest.

The Lilly Wu Terra Cotta Mystery game will not save, from one time to another. Also once I got to the cave, I could not go any further, as I couldn't find two of the locked items.
