Game Classification

Lost Lagoon: The Trail of Destiny is a hidden object game with adventure elements, where the main protagonist is a balloonist stranded on a mysterious island after crashing during a storm. Most of the time, the main objective is to find and click on all the items listed at the bottom of the screen, on locations cluttered with assorted paraphernalia scattered throughout the scenery. Grayed-out entries only become available after certain required interactions are performed.

Some of the collected objects are added to the inventory, that can be accessed through a tab at the bottom interface. The stored inventory tools, as well as any other useful objects found laying around the scene, have to be used by dragging and dropping them on appropriate and logical places to perform an action or complete a task. The hint button is a large compass that shows the position of one of the required items when activated, but takes some time to recharge after use.

A recurring mini-game appears inside an interactive window after clicking on certain shimmering hotspots, where the goal is to find a series of objects whose silhouettes are sequentially displayed at the bottom-left corner. At certain points, there are jigsaw puzzles to be assembled, and occasional challenges where a mechanism of some sort has to be manipulated to solve them. They can be optionally skipped after a few minutes. [source:mobygames]
