Not over the top wild adventure game but it is a very nice game. Good graphics. Mini games are a little simple but fun. Can't think of anything bad about it but there's nothing spectacular either. If you want a fun adventure HO game without the pressure of some of the more intense games than you'll enjoy this one. Hour trial went by fast so I'm sure I'll buy it.
I recommend this game!

I forgot all about this one after I played the CE trial version. Interesting unique story, I'm intriged to see how it ends. Haunted camp, walking trees, looks like it will be an adventure. I'll be buying this during the sale this weekend.

LOVED the CE trial version and this is not disappointing but I think with the halloween special this weekend I'll go back and "treat" myself to the Collectors Edition. Someone said the game was too short. I didn't find that at all. They must play just to get to the end as quick as possible and not enjoy the journey. It's a beautiful game and loads of fun.

I haven't seen a great spooky carnival game since MCF Madame Fate. This is Madame Fate super charged with an interdimentional mirror universe tossed in incase a regular spooky abandoned carnival just isn't enough. Fun mini games & love the little monkey helper & SUPER POINTS for not being another stupid game blaming everything on a evil witch. Proves to those designers there are other scary things out there even if they might be clowns, shiver! I'm only disappointed that there isn't a walkthrough. I don't usually use them for clues but more often to judge how much of the game I have yet to play. Oh well I guess I'll just have to buy it and find out. I'll be doing that right away.

Most enjoyable hour on a new game in a long while. Loving all the other Dark Parables I was sure this one would be special too and I wasn't disappointed. Beautiful artwork & special effects. Love the unique story line. I just wish the map linked you directly to the place you want to go but that's not a big deal. I'll be buying this one right away.

Artwork is nice but the very loud cheezy voice overs and super easy mini games & no sign of HO scenes & the other objects too easy to find.No challenge! If this isn't boring enough I really think these normally good designers need to leave there dark, dank computer rooms and join the real world and think of SOMETHING, ANYTHING other than blaming every bad thing in the world on an EVIL WITCH. Normally I love these types of games but I'm sick of the witch hunts and won't buy any more of them. Think of something new. GEE is it the middle ages suddenly and it's just easy to blame it all on witches or are they afraid of women. Shake up a can of ideas and pull out something else to scare people with. Seen it done it and won't buy another one like it!
I don't recommend this game.

Liked the CE version I played last month and anxiouly waited for this one to come out. It's a great sequel though I still think the first one was the best but that's usually the case. I didn't get far on this in the trial version due to a knock at my door but I'll be using this months game token to purchase it. Since I already found a couple jewels during the trial hr I'm hoping it gets harder or it's going to be a much shorter game than the others in the series. Artwork and effects are just as good as the earlier games so I'm very hopeful it will still be a great adventure.

Little Brandon sure grew up fast. Very interesting story. Different than the original werewolf story so you have know idea where the adventure will lead. Played the CE addition but waited for the regular edition to use by game credit for last month. I'll be buying this one right away. If you loved the other Grim Tales you'll love this one too.

I think I found the game I'll use this months credit for. Beautiful scenes some dark but not creepy. I like the sparkling fairies around HO scenes instead of the ususal sparkles. I also like the alternative match 3 if you want a break from the HO scene. Find the magic flowers to use as credit later in the game. Mysterious story of a missing twin with a magical celtic element. Sounds like its going to be lots of fun to explore the story.
I recommend this game!

Flux Family Secrets: The Book of Oracles
Delve deeper into the secret world of a time traveling family trying to fulfill the prophecies in the Book of Oracles.
Loved the other Flux games. Just like the others I like the way objects are found all over an area and not just in junk piles. The pieces needed to go further in the game can be found in smaller pieces throughout the rooms. I didn't get far in the hour trial due to a phone call that ended up eating my time before I realized and shut it down. I guess that means using my game credit for this month but for a good cause. It's the first game in a while I'm really going to enjoy getting into. Where in time will we visit this time around?
