7 Seekers Notes Tips and Tricks Strategy Guide
1. Scan, Zoom and Use Power-Ups
Seekers Notes: Hidden Journey can trip even the most advanced hidden object fan! There are plenty of beautiful scenes to explore, with a variety of hidden object modes offered as you level up. Moreover, the same objects do not stay in the same place each time you play the scene. Thus, given that the game only gives you limited time to complete a scene, knowing a handful of easy tips can help you complete these hidden object scenes with ease.
One quick strategy is to scan the list of items that you need to find at the bottom of the screen, then scan the scene to see if you can easily spot any of the objects. If you have trouble finding these objects, you can always pinch and zoom into different areas of the scene for more clarity. However, remember that there is a time penalty if you tap incorrectly too many times in a row, so do not go around and randomly tapping on objects.
Like most hidden object games for mobile, there are multiple power-ups or tools you can purchase from the store or earn through events and quests. These tools are incredibly helpful if used strategically and they are best used as the last resort, or when time is seriously running out. For example, the Precise Arrow removes one object from the list, the Lightning in a Bottle removes three random objects from the list, the Magic Lantern lights up the scene for 35 seconds when playing in night mode, and the Flying Time adds 45 extra seconds to the timer.
2. Complete Story Quests
In many ways, Seekers Notes is quite similar to G5 Entertainment’s top-grossing Hidden City. Both hidden object games are driven by a single main storyline, accompanied by tons of side quests and special events. With so many scenes to explore and mini-games to complete, it is easy to lose sight of the storyline and the quests that come with it.
In Seekers Notes: Hidden Journey, there is a list of character quests on the left side of the screen. These usually involve finding obtaining collection items from different scenes. Completing these majorly helps you gain experience and level up in the game, as well as reward you with coins. If you don’t want to replay the scenes multiple times to collect these items, you can try activating talismans, which can help increase your chance of finding collection items.
3. Assemble Collections
Speaking of collections, completing collections and artifacts is one of the most fun features on Seekers Notes: Hidden Journey. In order to complete these collections, you will need to find the necessary fixers. Fixers are random items that you get by exploring different scenes and mini-games. They are not particularly difficult to find and if you are missing any of them, you can choose to purchased them using rubies.
Once completed, these collections will fulfill the related story quest and reward you with amazing bonuses. If you are connected with friends in the game, you can add specific collection items that you need to your wishlist and wait for your generous friends to gift them to you.
4. Pay Attention to Anomalies
Anomalies randomly appear on locations and it is important to take note of them before you start exploring. In Seekers Notes: Hidden Journey, anomalies are dark powers that make the scenes more difficult and double the energy required for you to play. There are various types of anomalies, such as Reflection, which lets you play the scene in inverted mode and Time Shift, which makes the timer runs faster.
If you do not wish to play the scenes with these anomalies present, you can opt to dispel the anomalies. Each type of anomaly requires a particularly item to dispel, you can spend rubies if you do not have the necessary dispel item in hand.
5. Order Trade Items
Seekers Notes: Hidden Journey allows you to tap roaming characters on the town map and trade with them. In order to trade, these characters often require special items that need to be crafted. You can currently craft and order special items in three locations; Fortune Teller, Forge, and Inventor. It is helpful to keep in mind that it takes time to craft item.
The best way to optimize your time is to note the trade items you need at the start of your gaming session, order them in the craft stations, go back to exploring scenes and completing tasks, and return to pick up the items once they are successfully crafted.
6. Collect Gifts and Rewards
There are tons of ways to collect gifts and rewards in Seekers Notes: Hidden Journey, it can be overwhelming to keep track of. The quick and easy ones to collect are easy rewards, gifts from friends, rewards for watching video advertisements, and achievement rewards. Then are trophies that are unlocked as you progress through the game, and grant you bonuses every few hours. Furthermore, there are Guardian Quests, which refresh every 24 hours and require you to achieve specific objectives within the game and Desk Guardians, which leaves it up to your luck to open a reward card every 24 hours.
Last but not least, you can visit friends to collect visiting rewards as well as collect rewards from up to four of each of your friend’s trophies. Collecting rewards in Seekers Notes takes a little bit of time, but it is fun and most importantly, gives you currencies and items to advance through the game at a faster pace.
7. Add Friends and Join Guild
Social features are one of Seekers Notes: Hidden Journey’s many strengths. The game allows you to connect to Facebook to add existing friends or view a list of random players in the game. As previously mentioned, with friends you can exchange gifts, construct a wishlist, as well as receive rewards by visiting them. The game also rewards you with rubies for successfully inviting friends to play.
Another main social feature is the Guild. You can choose to join one guild at a time or create your own. When you are in a guild, you can chat with guild mates, exchange energy, and contribute in competitions against other guilds online. This adds a competitive element to the game, which makes the game even more exciting and fun.
Download and Play Seekers Notes: Hidden Journey for free on App Store, Google Play Store, Microsoft Store and Amazon.
Seekers Notes is surely an attractive game, but one without any specific direction. If you were to play the game for a month, every day, you would probably end up spending, conservatively, $4 each day in order to continue. Doing that simple math, you would have donated $120 to the game designers. That’s quite a lot of money, in my opinion, for no apparent reason.
