Tiny Spy

The title may be misleading. In Tiny Spy, you seem to be the archetypal detective character, complete with a hat, trench-coat and a notepad. The goal is to find a specific object in each environment and 'snatch it'!

You will usually need to search for specific areas in the room, open drawers, activate mechanisms and so on. Often you will need to pick up items, combine them and use them somewhere else. There is also a lot of code breaking. In these cases you will either need to find the code written somewhere or guess it based on what you see in the immediate environment. Puzzles are not very difficult, although you might fall prey to a bit of pixel hunting in some levels. However that is only a minor issue. What sort of bugs me is that there's absolutely no animation to be seen; although for a free game the graphics are fairly good.

I like that some puzzles require out of the box thinking, and not just randomly found solutions. The theme is a bit odd, but I see that the developers also felt the same way since they made another title where you actually are a thief.
