Description
Instructions: Use your mouse to play this game.
Golden Valley reaches back to 1848, when a find of gold at a California sawmill set off a rush that changed the West. The game borrows that chapter of history as its setting.
You explore scenes shaped by the rush for gold and look for hidden items along the way. It is a mouse played game in our Puzzle category, a good choice if a bit of history makes a search more interesting to you.
Searching the valley
Every scene has a list of objects to track down. Hunt through the scene, and click whatever you recognize from the list. Finish the list to reach the next scene. Old tools and rough wooden textures fill these scenes, so give the busy corners extra time.
Gold rush tips
- Tools and small metal objects blend into rocks and wood.
- Search around doorways and wagons, they tend to be crowded.
- Check the ground as well as walls and shelves.
