i totally enjoyed this game, graphics were beautiful, story was great, good character, and game play flowed pretty well. If I had a con about this game it that there are way to many puzzle, but they were semi easy so can't complain too much. This game also had a nice length to it, really enjoyable...Thanks
I recommend this game!

I've grown to love these games and have 2 Hercules, but all are basically the same, just different layouts. This one did have something new, and it took me awhile to figure it out, but you get wood from wood columns that you just keep using until the rings are gone. The layouts were small, seemed to be in the trees on branch trails, but didn't get to play long enough to launch the Argo into the ocean, then maybe there would be islands or something. i know this isn't a CE game and may look at it again when it comes out as an SE
I don't recommend this game.

Different puzzles and HOGs, not too difficult, some took thought but very do-able. The story is interesting, graphics are nicely done, and fun enough for me to purchase. I'm not sure, but is this a new series? I like Fables.
I recommend this game!

Oh My, I think this was the worst game I've demoed in a very long time, by the time I had sold, bought, and repaired several boats, there was such a traffic jam, and it was as miserable as the traffic in LA during rush hour. I've gotten to like time management games, just glad this wasn't the first one I had tested
I don't recommend this game.

Oh Heavens, I don't think I've been so bored thru a demo for some time, I have not one good thing to say other than the graphics weren't that bad, but the Match 3 tiles were kind of hard to tell one from the other. Oh, and the HOs were so small and cluttered, you almost needed a magnifying glass and a broom.
I don't recommend this game.

I've kind of got hooked on this type of time management, dislike the the assembly line, wait on customer ones. i was hoping that this would be a real fun game to play as the last 2 i bought kept crashing and i really liked them. This is not a great substitute, but it does entertain me for awhile, so i did purchase with a game credit as it will do when i'm having a sleepless night.
I recommend this game!

This is a very strange story, no idea what it's really about other then something is making people turn old, not my idea of a good time. This game is loaded with very difficult puzzles and very few hogs, which is so disappointing. I used to love Mystery Case Files way back when, but now, not so much. Only recommend for diehard puzzle lovers.

Finally, another wonderful Dark Parables as the last couple were terrible. i really loved the story, the characters, the graphics, and especially the length of the game and the fact it had chapters so I could leave and come back without getting lost. Reason I couldn't give 5 Stars is the HOs were ridiculously difficult, hiding then in twig statues, and other messy things; the other fact was this horrible puzzle that kept showing up where you had to put tiles on their colored pegs and it never worked like the way I understood the directions, so I got where I waited my time limit and just skipped. i purchased and enjoyed it, but cringed every time an HO came up and I love the HO portion of games, especially the fragment ones, but these were too frustrating.
I recommend this game!

Loved everything about this game, especially the story and how it flowed so it was never boring. The graphics are beautiful, characters are great, puzzles weren't too difficult, and HOs, even though most were a list, they were well done. There have been so many boring games lately, it was refreshing to see a really good one for a change, this one was even a long length game so it entertained me for many hours Thanks and hope to see more awesome games come out.
I recommend this game!

One of the very few series that has not become boring and off track. I really enjoyed playing this one and hope there are many great Grim Tales to follow.
I recommend this game!
