Have you ever played those games that come with some computers, where you’re looking for hidden objects in a frame, and you have to click on these to get anywhere?  That’s exactly what one of the newest games on Xbox Live Arcade will have you doing–it’s called Interpol: The Trail of Dr. Chaos.

And for those of you out there who are thinking PROFESSOR Chaos, yes, I’m with you–every time I hear Dr. Chaos, all I can think is Butters in tinfoil.  Anyway, DOCTOR Chaos (not PROFESSOR Chaos despite how truly awesome that would be) has just been broken out of prison by his three associates, and it’s up to you to round the three of them up by traveling the world, locating various clues, and clicking on them.

I really don’t favor these kinds of games myself, because I hate looking for “a radio” when I have no idea what they mean by “a radio”.  Are we talking a handset?  A transistor radio?  A CLOCK radio?  What?  There are dozens of different kinds and configurations of radio, but here I am, trying to find the one THEY mean by “radio”.

And it really doesn’t help that so much of the gameplay is just hunt and click.  Yes, you get a limited number of hints, but still, all you’re basically doing is clicking on a picture looking for random stuff that you’re not even a hundred percent sure what it looks like.

But if you really liked those find-the-hidden-whatever games when you were a kid, or want to pass on the love to the next generation, then Interpol: The Trail of Dr. Chaos will be just what you’re looking for.
