Listen, we all make mistakes. I did when I didn't read a good many of the reviews. So sad and sorry I didn't. This could have been a good game. I am not going to go through the list of "whys or why nots". I was willing to give it a try. What can I say, I was bored. Please fix the game. It really is broken. I have to uninstall it for now.
I don't recommend this game.

This is a really good game. I was pleasantly surprised. I have all the Love Chronicles games in the series. Each one is different. Your goals in this game are to rescue your daughter, Princess Lerione and stop the Ice Queen. The interactive puzzles are different. For example: You must find the indicated shapes hidden in the illustration, in another puzzle, you must use a jeweled spider to capture flies entangled in a jeweled encrusted web and in another, you must select the symbol that make-up the compound symbol. There is also chess-like game, of which I was totally no good at playing. For this one, I used the skip button. There is evil magic to dispel. But to use the magic orb, you need to collect magical book symbols to charge the orb. The orb is then used to dispel evil fog. The scenery is beautiful, ice cold, and dangerous looking. I liked that I didn't have to go back and forth to find pieces of a puzzle or an object that goes this place or that place. I get headaches doing that. In this game, you can't move forward until you have accomplished all of the goals in each world. Along the way, you encounter many people who have been affected by the spells of the Ice Queen. If you've ever played (and liked) the other Love Chronicles games, I recommend this game for your collections. BTW, I am an intermediate player and it was good for me playing at the casual level.
I recommend this game!

I am a fairytale buff. The first book I ever read was by the brothers Grimm. I loved this game which is loosely based on The Six Swans, a German fairy tale collected by the Grimm Brothers. I played as a healer. The graphics in this game are beautiful. Along the way, you meet helpful characters but they do not remain with you throughout the story. For instance an otter joins you and help you reach objects in difficult places. It stays with you until it finds a clear lake with a waterfall and lots of food where he will make his home. I am a intermediate player and found this game not too challenging for me. I loved the mini games/puzzles/hos. I play at the easy level so I can go back and try games at a more challenging level. I hope you try this game.

I must tell you that I only played the demo but couldn't finish that. I stopped after about 50 minutes. I don't know? Maybe it's just me but, I found the game boring and repetitive. Some of the puzzles were really nice. The graphics were OK. The whole game idea was great. The music was not. It was like water torture for me and after about 30 minutes I started to feel a headache. I just couldn't get into this game. I try never to give negative reviews. Someone else may get into this game and enjoy it. I suggest (recommend) the demo. You may like it. But, it's not for me.
I recommend this game!

This game is great. I was totally surprised. I used my credits and was divided on which game to buy. I'm so glad I chose Dark Realm: Queen of Flames CE. It's a great adventure story-game of good versus evil. I am an intermediate player, so was afraid that I would be in over my head. So, I played it in casual mode. So happy I did because now I will go back and try it at a different level. This game rocks big time. The end battle is so exciting it's like watching (participating in) a terrifying movie. Please try it that's all I have to say. Everything about this game is great, wouldn't change a thing. I really enjoyed this game.
I recommend this game!

My whole family play this game, from the oldest to the youngest. My grandchildren ages 8-17, play this game when they come to visit. It has become so popular in my family that my son had to buy and download this game at his home. I have 3 computers in my home. So whenever family comes, we have Plants vs Zombie challenge night. Popcorn, chips, sodas, and a down and dirty fight with the zombies. It's such a great/fun strategy game. And my 30 something daughter, who was terrified of the whole idea of zombies, finally played this game. She loves it. And guess what? She can now look at that TV show with the Zombies. I'm not saying that it was this game that did it. But hey, something shifted in her psyche. LOL!!! I wholeheartedly recommend this game as a great family fun game.

I love playing the Awakening games. They have great story-lines, the graphics are gorgeous, and they are really great fun to play. I've wanted to try this game for a while but was wary because I didn't want to have to get into a game like this and end up paying a lot of money. These games can be addicting. So, I decided to play this game for one week. If at the end of the week I found I could not play this game without spending money then I would stop playing. So I've played for one week. Here is what I found; you can play this game without spending money but... (there is always a but). The higher you go, the longer it takes for your energy bar to regain enough power for you to play again. You earn coins by going on various quests. And, you can speed the energy bar along by using these coins to buy food. You can even earn blue crystals by going on quests. These crystals can be used to skip certain aspects of the game or to expedite certain situations when one doesn't want to wait. It's a slow process without them and to actually earn them. So, this is where spending money comes in. Oh, BTW, my favorite part so far is the auction house... love it, love it!!!
I will try to keep you posted somehow on my adventures with this game.

My review is based solely on the demo. The scenery/graphics are really nice. And some of the puzzles are fun. For me, it's the storyline that drives a game.This storyline is based on betrayal and revenge. But, it's lacking something; a kind of finesse one usually find in better written story-games. I rarely cheer for the villain but I find myself cheering for Queen Mab in this game. She is the underdog. She has been cruelly hurt. Not only has she been dumped by her fiancee but he has stolen an object of power from her and escaped into the human world. Using this object, he has sealed them in their world forever. Every magical being in the realm and beyond should be trying to find him. I'd like to see this villianess win in the end.
I don't recommend this game.

I love the Awakening series of Games/Stories. One get the chance to follow Princess Sophia through various stages of growth. And in this final episode, she finally defeats Dreadmire who has been wreaking havoc among the citizens and fairy folk of this kingdom. I liked this final installment to the series. I can only say please add this to your selection of games. The bonus game is fun and challenging. You play as the potential Nanny of Queen Sophia's daughter.
I recommend this game!
