Positioned centrally in the panel is a list of the main items which will need to be located.  These items can be listed in text format, as distinctive patterns or silhouettes which, once found, will need to be replaced within the scene.  In the case of a text list, entries coloured red will indicate that the item will be concealed within or behind another object while entries coloured blue will require a task to be performed for their removal.

  Situated on the left of the panel is a Snow Globe which will display certain extra items which need to be found.  On occasions, next to the Snow Globe, a container will appear showing silhouettes of a further item that will appear a set number of times within the scene waiting to be located.  Along with the various items just mentioned, each scene will also contain a raccoon and a stamp.  Collecting both of these items will bring a reward.

Each scene will feature one or two special areas indicated by an outbreak of sparkles.  These areas can be opened up to reveal a mini scene that could contain required items/  Mini scenes automatically close when they no longer hold appropriate content.

Completing the panel area are three tools which can be used when required.  A zoom tool will provide a closer look of the scene as your mouse cursor moves around.  The other two tools deliver hint features either by indicating a single item of any remaining items.

Interspersed between the various locations are certain mini game puzzles.  Successfully completing these puzzles, which vary in style and difficulty, will bring the reward of points which can be used to purchase souvenirs relating to the game.  Later you can tackle the bonus levels and puzzles which are part of the Collector's Edition version.
