Pardon the dust! This page includes some jargon that hasn't been added to the site's glossary yet. I'll be around to fix this later, but sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime. |
Glossary Entry: Pixel hunting
Definition
Point and click adventure games typically have the player locate and interact with objects by clicking on them. Unfortunately, sometimes the objects are nearly invisible - often because they are too small or too similar to the background color.
When this happens, the player's focus shifts from solving a puzzle to sniffing out the specific pixel required to continue the game.
This is pretty annoying, to say the least!
