The Italian partner – Nuovo Fantarca – has developed Hidden Cinema, a browser game based on the Hidden Object gamification mechanic, which consists of introducing a type of puzzle where you need to pay attention to locate hidden objects within a static area.
In this game, the player wanders from one place to another to discover objects that alow the player to finish the game. Each object refers to a Movie. The player climbs the leaderboard based on their progress.
