I think I saw my first (and last) hidden object game a couple of years ago. It was done in Flash, and it was mildly diverting for a couple of minutes. But geez, developers just keep cranking these things out! It's kind of shameless.
Does anyone here actually play these things? I'm kind of curious if they're really just doing the same thing over and over again, or if someone has actually managed to do something surprising.
