I just started the game and I am enthralled. I played the previous Amaranthine Voyage games but this excels beyond anything I played before.
Craft -man - ship of this game is unbelievable. One must congratulate Eirix - they have lived up to their name - and created another world. Love it!

This is the second in the 'Sea of Lies' series and I think this is better than the first one. The graphics are beautiful, the voiceovers clear and natural sounding, and the HOS - again - unique.
I just started the game and as a lady detective am trying to enter through the backdoor to the scene of investigation. The Nemesis has to be discovered [or uncovered] - cant wait.

As always, ERS Games have produced a marvellous adventure. An ancient time machine is shipwrecked, lost its Eagles, and times has uprooted from its proper place - your grandfather is young again and you are given a task of saving your grandma and find the Eagles. Such a pleasure to play a good game with beautiful graphics, good voice overs made by great programmers who know what they are doing. Love it.

I am so exited about another Dark Parable!! Just started the game and the graphics are so beautiful, voice overs so real and the HOS - just love them!. There is something otherworldly about Dark Parables - magic flows through the story and this must be one of my favourite genders - thank you fro another wonderful game.

I was eagerly starting this game relying on the brilliant games previously distributed by Grand Ma. What a disappointment - you have fallen into the trap of popular games: full or scenery, characters, magical creatures ... smoke and mirrors all!
There was no sharpness of story line but pastel coloured scenes - too much for me. Please, next time present us a lovely, intriguing game you do so well.

Somehow I expected more of this game. Dark forces are in action and this detective [me] has been called to investigate. The storyline is good, scary moments are in multitudes and once I finished the game I will know why Middleport has been set under such curse. But, the smallness of pictures/items is disappointing and I don't particular like that I have to prompt a person to continue conversation with my mouse. Still , worth for quiet evening enjoyment.
I recommend this game!

The tale of Shadow Wolf Mysteries is reaching up and up and up! This must be best of the lot and more scary than the previous games of the same series. I just started and there are wolves everywhere - and perhaps werewolves as well. People are panicking and even me, as a player, get my frightful moments. Love it - just started. I must admire the clarity of HOS and the story line - too great. Good on you Ers!

I love all Phenomenon games. And one after another they are getting better and better. There is some unique aspects in the game: the HOS are double the fun; the characters are so surprisingly different; the landscape looks ordinary and is not; and the ever present danger ... find out yourself.
I recommend this game!
