Corpse Party isn\'t a hidden object game. I think someone got this confused with Pixel Hunt.

A Hidden Object Game (often abbreviated [=HOG=]) is a subgenre of {{Casual Video Game}}s where the player has to find [[NeedleInAStackOfNeedles a series of objects in a cluttered scene]], which are almost always photorealistic. Basically, the "gameplay" consists of just staring at the screen until you find something and clicking on it. Some games will reward you for finding many items in quick succession. The [[SturgeonsLaw really bad ones]] don't even try to hide the objects well, or worse yet, [[PixelHunt too well]].
In most cases, expect objects that have no business being anywhere near the scene pictured and a good helping of AnachronismStew (a jumbo jet inside the depths of an ancient Egyptian tomb, for example). After getting the objects, you'll be given one of them to take with you for use in your exploration of the game's setting (for instance, if you get an axe, expect to find a door with a busted lock somewhere). However, the ''Travelogue 360'' series has no overworld, while ''Nightmare Adventures The Witch's Prison'' has no hidden object scenes, aside from a joke [[ShowWithinAShow Game Within A Game]].

Most current games are primarily horror games, although there are a few mystery ones (sometimes, they're both). Of course, there's not much else you can do outside horror, either because horror stories have deserted locations, it adds a good atmosphere to an otherwise boring game, and gives you a reason to find the objects. Basically, they're SurvivalHorror titles with hidden object levels replacing the monsters. Although most of them have subtitles, they're either a standalone game or part of a long series.

Not sure what was meant here, all Top 5 games are available through Big Fish. True, they aren\'t the programmers, but the producers. But BFG is essentially a distributor/producer and hasn\'t \"made\" anything really besides Mystery Case Files.
