SNOWBIRD'S CREEK IS AN EXCELLENT GAME FOR FANS OF DEAD RECKONING

A bit of divergence from my normal habit of posting a review based on the game demo as this time I have completed the game and the bonus game before writing my review. I understand that many don’t like what they consider cookie-cutter games and it seems that some of the luster has faded from this developers overall popularity. However, I loved this game and at least for me, it is one of the best in the Dead Reckoning series. I rarely play the bonus chapter in a game since I am usually bored by the time I complete the regular game but not so with Snowbird’s Creek. In addressing the sameness of most HOPA games, the format is that we look for objects, use those objects, play a mini-game and follow a storyline. This is the basis for the genre and it is not often that we see something different. You either love HOPA games or you don’t. It is the same with all of the TM games I have played – there is not much that differs from game to game.
The storyline is excellent and consistent without a lot of jumping all over the place so it is fairly easy to follow. What I happened to love about the game is that it wasn’t super easy to get started and always figure out what needed to be found to move forward. Some of the found items were used creatively and on more than one occasion I said “why didn’t I think of that” after I used a hint.
In Snowbird’s Creek the HOPA scenes were excellent and I am always hooked into finding those morphing objects. I felt that one scene was a bit different than usual but I am a true fan of the genre and love searching for objects so I don’t always need something different. I found most of the items to be easily identifiable and even when a scene was done with silhouettes, those were clearly depicted so the items were not overly hard to find.
Yes, the mini-games were fairly easy but some were more challenging. However, most of them were excellent and not the type where you toggle switches. The information for completing the puzzles was clear so at least when I was stuck I had a good idea where to begin.
This developer is one of my favorites and almost always presents an excellent, well put together HOPA game. Yes, they may be a bit cookie-cutter to some but at least this developer strives to excel when presenting a game. As I mentioned earlier I loved this game and am now looking forward to the next offering from this team. Please try the demo to see if this is a game you will enjoy.
I recommend this game!

WALKING THROUGH THIS DOORWAY HOLDS SOME SURPRISES

As the game begins Helen (your character in the game) receives a strange message from boyfriend Ian saying that his mentor Sir Benedict Bells isn’t who he says he is. Ian sounds distressed and while he is speaking the phone goes dead so you rush over to Sir Bells’ house to see what is wrong. When you arrive at the house you find things are a mess and Ian is in trouble. It seems that Sir Bells is hiding some secrets, or is he? It isn’t long before you won’t know who to trust or believe in this new Nevertales game.
Since this is a Nevertales game after all, some things are familiar but yet presented in a different way from other games in the series. In this game you will enter the Taleworld through the Hidden Doorway but you get to rewrite the stories to change the outcome – but do you want to? The developer has shown so much creativity with this game that even I was surprised. You will need to be on your toes and actually think about what you need to do as you work to save Ian and find the truth that is behind the Hidden Doorway.
The graphics are excellent and crisp with my only minor complaint being that there is a tad too much of the blue tone that is present in the game at times. Of course all of the Nevertales games have had that blue or purple tint so this game is in line with the others. The game has all of the other technical features that one would expect from a top-tier developer including an excellent sound package. The game also includes an interactive map to help you move quickly between scenes.
The HOPS are well-designed but there are far fewer of the traditional type that we normally see in HOPA games. There are some that are the standard list type, some are silhouette type and then there are the storybook types but all of them are excellent. Where Hidden Doorway excels is with its puzzles. The puzzles are a bit different and some are actually challenging. There is a puzzle early in the game that involves mowing a garden and the first two levels are easy but by the third level, it becomes tricky. I actually love the garden puzzle and had a lot of fun figuring it out.
The CE version of the game includes 32 collectibles to find and morphing objects that are found in the HOP scenes. Of course, there are 27 achievements to earn for those who love the challenge. Extras include a bonus chapter, a 56-page strategy guide, artwork, wallpapers, music and replay of HOPS. A few extra goodies include a Nostalgia Section, Scrapbook, Garden Puzzle included and Avatars.
Do I really love the game? The answer to that question is I am not sure that I am swept away by the storyline. In some ways the game has a feeling of the old Drawn series (one that was never my favorite) but perhaps that is because of all the blue tones in those games as well. I can’t put my finger on what I don’t like about Hidden Doorway but it is most likely the game’s theme. Although I have all of the Nevertales games, they are not the games I really want to replay because I find most of them less than exciting. Maybe this one will be better and I will play it with an open mind because it might surprise me. As always, I recommend you try the demo to see if Hidden Doorway is a game you will enjoy.
I recommend this game!

AN EXCELLENT NEW DARK PARABLES THAT IS ON FIRE!

Ahh, another Dark Parables game and this one seems much better than the last offering in the series. In the Thief and the Tinderbox we come face to face with some characters from some of my other favorite games in the Dark Parables series which is always a special treat. You again play the game as a DP detective and this time you have been called to the Mountain Kingdom to investigate a rash of fires that are being deliberately set in the kingdom’s forests and, as an extra treat, you are invited to the wedding of Prince Gwyn and Gerda. As you arrive on the scene you encounter the arsonist as he is busily burning down trees but he soon attacks you and then disappears inside one special tree in the forest. As you track him you find that he is after an artifact that is buried in the old king’s tomb – one that is well-protected and extremely dangerous in the wrong hands. As you find the Tinderbox the thief attacks you and steals the treasure you have found before disappearing. It is then that you realize it is one of your old friends Kai. Why has Kai turned into a thief and worse yet an arsonist? Play this wonderful new game and find the answers as you solve the mysteries hidden in The Thief and the Tinderbox.
The graphics, sound and all the other technical features of the game are just what we expect from this development team. The only shortcoming, IMHO, is the bland FROG scenes that can’t begin to compare with the gorgeous opulence we found in the ones from the original developer of the Dark Parables series. The game offers several modes of gameplay including a custom mode where you can fiddle with various settings. One vast improvement in the newer Dark Parables games is that they include an interactive transporter type map that actually works which is something I appreciate, since in the original games I could never get the map to function properly and allow me to move quickly between scenes.
The HOPS in this game or FROGs are very different from the ones we found in the earlier games but they are okay. I found the items to locate very dull and dreary with many of them a bit different than the items that we are supposed to find. For instance in the graphic an item might be a shiny blue circle and when we look through the junk pile the item will be tarnished silver and I think that is a bit deceptive. In the original games the items always were depicted accurately and most times they were quite beautiful. While I am a bit disappointed with the FROG scenes, the puzzles are excellent. I found many of them to be different and very fun to complete. None of them were extremely difficult but at the same time not everyone will find them too easy, and this is something I appreciate. For me at least, games should be fun and not extremely frustrating when it comes to completing a puzzle before continuing with the storyline.
The CE content is fairly good and includes locating parable pieces that are scattered throughout the game. Once we find all of the pieces to complete a parable we can read that story. The other collectibles to find are 39 round medallions and after completion of the main game and bonus chapter we have souvenirs to find. The other extras include the strategy guide, bonus chapter, concept art, wallpapers, music and videos.
The storyline for the Thief and the Tinderbox is excellent and one that I am enjoying. I only stopped playing long enough to write this review and then I am jumping right back into the game. I was quite surprised that the game is an improvement over some others in the newer Dark Parables games and one that offers challenge, a great storyline, and interesting puzzles. Since I happen to enjoy fantasy type games and particularly have always been a fan of the Dark Parables series, I am finding the Thief and the Tinderbox a very entertaining game. Even though the game was an instant purchase for me, as always, please try the demo to see if this is a game you will enjoy.
I recommend this game!

What a wonderful surprise and a refreshing change after the recent dark and rather morbid games that have been released! Queen’s Quest 2 Stories of the Forgotten Past is a beautifully crafted fantasy game that is so well-designed that you feel like you’ve stepped into the story. I love everything about this game and for me it is an instant addition to my gaming library.
In Queen’s Quest 2 you play the game as an alchemist who has shapeshifting abilities. Recently you concocted a potion that will allow humans to fly – an awesome discovery that adds to your shape-shifting abilities. As the game begins you are called to the castle for a meeting with the king. Wolf, who was the King’s head of security and friend, has been killed and the King wants you to investigate the murder to find out who is responsible. Of course, the King’s general doesn’t feel you are a capable detective and he lets the King know it so, as a test, the King requests that you find and repair a malfunctioning portal. Once that little task is done your adventure begins.
The graphics are gorgeous and full of beautiful color even though there are some darker scenes included as well. The characters are all realistic with excellent voiceovers and a dialogue that makes sense. There are many fantasy characters as well and I happened to love the talking cauldron early in the game whose antics had me laughing.
Your tools include an alchemy kit where you can prepare various potions using ingredients that are found as you move through the game. There is also an interactive map that does change at times depending upon who you might be since your view of the realm may change from time to time.
The HOP scenes are interactive and some have a bit of a twist. Some of the items are well-hidden and I did have to use the hint button a couple of times. For the most part, the HOPS were excellent with gorgeous graphics. Most of the puzzles seemed easy but they were still a lot of fun. If you read my reviews you know that I enjoy puzzles in a game but I don’t always need super challenging puzzles as sometimes it is just nice to play a game with puzzles that are a bit more relaxing.
The CE package has 40 collectible puzzle pieces and 15 figurines to find as well as 15 achievements to earn. There are morphing objects but I am not sure if these are only included in the CE version of the game since they can be found in some HOPS. There is a 46 page in-game strategy guide that provides some extra help if needed. The remaining extras are standard with the bonus game, concept art, wallpapers and music. Some of the extras remain hidden but I guess they include a replay of HOPS and puzzles.
As I mentioned earlier I love this game. I think for right now I have had my fill of creepy games and have been waiting for something that is colorful and entertaining. Queen’s Quest 2 Stories of the Forgotten Past fills the bill and is like a breath of fresh air (particularly when I am soaring among the clouds – lol). Another nice thing about the game is that although it is a fantasy game there is no evil menace that wants to take over the world. I love the fairy tale storyline that incorporates different tales that I read as a child. Although this game might not be one that everyone will like, I think there are many gamers out there who will enjoy this game. As always, I recommend that you try the demo first to see if Queen’s Quest Stories of the Forgotten Past is a game you will enjoy.
I recommend this game!

Recently I have become very weary of games that all have the same theme of some evil entity bent on control or dominion and although Shadowplay Darkness Incarnate on the surface seems to be another of those games, I must say that this developer had done an incredible job of making this a game I simply loved. There are so many things about Darkness Incarnate that are exceptionally well done that it becomes a step above all of the other games with this type of theme.
The graphics, the voice acting, the HOPS and the mini-games are all excellent and show what can be done when a developer is willing to go to the next level. You can select from several modes of gameplay with Eclipse being the one where you can customize how you play the game. The storyline is very well laid out and interesting. Your tools include an interactive map and there is also a lamp that does prove helpful in some situations.

You play the game as Sarah Summers whose sister, Layla, is an inmate at the Iron Gate Asylum, accused of murdering three of her classmates while on a camping trip. You find it difficult to believe that your sister is capable of such a heinous crime and with help from the inside you set off on a journey to prove her innocence. Be warned though that this is a difficult task and you might just find out more than you are willing to know.
As I mentioned above there is a HOP scene early in the game that is one of the most unique I have ever seen during the years I have been a fan of HOPA games. It took me a few minutes to figure out exactly what I needed to do to locate the listed items. What a novel and different approach to a HOP that is sure to be emulated by other developers in the future. The weak point in the game just might be the mini-games that are familiar and have been seen many times before. In spite of the fact that during the demo I didn’t find any different or new type mini-games they are still very good even though only one of them was a bit more difficult. As is generally the case, I am sure the mini-games will increase in difficulty or challenge as the game progresses.
Shadowplay Darkness Incarnate is an incredible game with a dark twist that is just so well done that I didn’t mind that it might be another game with a dark entity. I loved the psychological, dark thriller aspect that had me almost afraid to move to the next scene. This game just proves that with thought and determination developers can present a game that is different, challenging and creative even though the basic theme might appear to be the same old thing. This development team has historically presented games that have been unique and a cut above since they made their debut with the Rite of Passage series years ago. Although there were a few missteps along the way, Shadowplay is evidence that this team has got what it takes to create a game that is sure to rise to the top of the charts. I couldn’t wait to buy it the minute it was released because this game lets me know there is still some life to be found in the HOPA genre
I recommend this game!

Go away! Well I couldn’t run away from this dreadful game fast enough so those bodiless voices wouldn’t have to repeat that warning more than once to have me running out the door. I so agree with another reviewer who wonders what happened to this once terrific series. I guess with a few spiders, cobwebs, a deteriorating rat trap hotel, and a few floating ghosts the developer must think this latest Haunted Hotel will be enough to attract sales. Well not so in my case! I felt like I needed to get up and take a shower after playing the demo. What a terrible game. I guess the only saving grace is that, according to some comments, it is a very short game.
The graphics are dingy and dark and the game is loaded with roaches, spiders, rats and all other sorts of nasty critters. The voiceovers are okay if you like the ghostly whisperings we hear throughout the scenes.
The HOPS were fairly typical of this developer as are the mini-games. I wasn’t inclined to purchase the game or play more than just a short while before I knew the game wasn’t one I would care to purchase, so I can’t comment on why types of HOPS or puzzles are included later in the game. I am sure there will be a variety of challenge with the puzzles as the game progresses and I am sure there is something to keep everyone happy – that is if you happen to like the game well enough to play longer than I did.
Honestly, the Haunted Hotel series at one time had games that I loved but Silent Waters just didn’t have enough entertainment value to entice me to open my wallet and add this one to my collection. Many of you out there swimming in the pond will undoubtedly love this game so it is good to see that the developer has provided something different than most of the fantasy type games that have become standard fare in recent years. I happen to enjoy some good mysteries and even a bit of ghost chasing so I am not sure exactly why this game didn’t ring my bell. I don’t know if it was all the cobwebs and spiders or if it was a storyline that didn’t make a lot of sense but something about the game put me off. Even though I didn’t care for the game, as always, please try the demo to see if this is a game you will enjoy because I guess you know by now that I sure didn’t like it.
I don't recommend this game.

Sometimes collecting or finding ancient artifacts can be very dangerous as you soon discover in the new Myths of the World – Island of Forgotten Evil. Your uncle was in possession of such an artifact and before you know it you are involved in intrigue and even something more deadly. Although the game has us again dealing with an evil entity (a theme that happens to be carved in stone here at BFG) I still happen to really like this game. I have found some of the puzzles a bit more difficult than those in some recent games and that is something I appreciate. The HOP scenes were excellent and varied with some being the multi-level type that this developer introduced to the genre.
The graphics are excellent as are the voiceovers and various other sounds in the game. We have the standard modes of gameplay as well as a custom mode where you can fiddle with various settings when setting up the gameplay. Your tools include an interactive map and an amulet, a dreadful gimmick that I dislike. Now that the pet helper craze seems to have for the most part ended it has unfortunately been replaced by these gimmicks that seem to be in every game that is released. IMHO, they are nothing more than something thrown into a game to extend the game length and oftentimes I think they interfere with the game’s flow.
Although the game theme is familiar, the storyline is very good and grabbed my attention once the game kicked into high-gear. As always it took a bit before the game moved along – after I escaped a burning house, and started following the clues left by my uncle. Yes, the game is what many might consider cookie-cutter but I happen to love most games from this developer who knows how to present a well told story and include the things I enjoy on HOPA games. Some might find the game easy but I enjoyed the level of challenge that was not too overly difficult but at the same time was not as easy to figure out as some games. I enjoyed the variety in the puzzles and that there seemed to be more of them than HOP scenes. I think the game has something for everyone and particularly gamers who might be new to the genre. For me the Island of Forgotten Evil is another great addition to the Myths of the World series and one I know will provide several hours of entertainment. As always, I recommend that you try the demo to see if this is a game you will enjoy.

Puppet Show Her Cruel Collection is number ten in the series, unless I missed one somewhere along the line. Fortunately, Her Cruel Collection is far better than the last game and one that I find very interesting and enjoyable. I tend to be a bit squeamish so I am not sure about the game being blood-spattered since I haven’t noticed it or found it objectionable.
The storyline is interesting and I am not sure how it is going to end as it is keeping me guessing. We, of course, get to play the game as a detective who has been hired by Marjory to rescue her beloved James from kidnappers who are holding him for ransom. Marjory comes from a wealthy family but dad seems to be a bit of a miser as he refuses to loan Marjory the money for the ransom and, in fact, he places her on the dreaded restriction to keep her from following the kidnappers. Well, we know how long that will last as it isn’t long before Marjory is out searching for James and ending up in a load of trouble.
Even though I have always found the Puppet Show games a bit creepy I still love the graphics created by this developer. The hand-drawn graphics, even though a bit dark, create the perfect setting for the game. IMHO, no other developer creates characters as animated and realistic looking as this artistic team. The voice overs are good but Marjory’s high-pitched tone did get to me a bit.
Our tools include an interactive map and a pet helper of sorts. Since Marjory is allergic to cats her daddy gifted her with a grotesque mechanical cat. Well since this team seems wedded to a pet helper, I think I would have preferred furry rather than the monstrosity that we have doing rather silly tasks. The cat is probably my least favorite part of the game and, fortunately, he isn’t used that often.
The HOPS are far more varied and creative, which is something new for this team. There are still a few list type scenes and even those seem to have some interactive items to find. The puzzles are good and include a range of challenge that is sure to please most gamers. Some were easy but there was one early in the game that is the type of puzzle I have never been able to complete in other games and, after fiddling with it for a few minutes, I hit the skip button. The thing about puzzles is that not every gamer is enthusiastic about them or really wants them to be extremely difficult. Some people have an aptitude for solving very challenging puzzles and seem to thrive on them but that isn’t the case for everyone. I love to solve puzzles but I often run into some that are very difficult for me and I don’t always have the patience to fiddle with them too long since I want to move ahead with the story.
There isn’t much to say about the CE content of the game because it really doesn’t include anything very spectacular. The in-game strategy guide will prove helpful but most seasoned HOPA players rarely need to use it.
Overall, Her Cruel Intention is an excellent game and one of the better ones in the newer Puppet Show games. Yes, it is nothing like the first three or four games that were phenomenal but it is a vast improvement on the last one. The storyline is what captured my interest from the beginning of the game and has held my attention as I have played for the past few hours. I love the entire package of characters, graphics, and sound effects that make Her Cruel Collection a game that I believe many gamers will enjoy. As always, please try the demo to see if this newest Puppet Show is a game you will enjoy.

Wow, finally we have an excellent new game in the field of griddler type puzzles. I am a huge fan of the penguin family and had almost given up hope that any other developer could do these games as well. This morning when I tried Rainbow Mosaics Blooming Garden, I knew it was a game I had to add to my gaming library. Griddler type games are the ones I always turn to when I feel like I need a break from my daily routine. I had given up hope that I would ever find a griddler game that I love as much as I do that “other one.”
The graphics are excellent and although the grids are a bit smaller in size they are clear. Not only do we have grids with several different color options, there are several tile sets to select when setting up the game. The background music is good but, the dialogue really, really, needs some grammatical help. I have a feeling the days of “polishing” up a game are long gone here in the pond. That minor complaint out of the way, there is so much to love about this game that makes it terrific. Rainbow Mosaics offers the ease of use that my other favorite griddler provides. I like the auto-fill feature that completes the empty cells once we mark the ones in a row or column that have been marked with all available cells. I also like the little dots that we place in unused cells which are so much better than having to use some huge and annoying push pin to fill a cell.
Rainbow Mosaics Blooming Garden is an instant buy for me but, as always, please try the demo to see if this is a game you will enjoy.

Okay, I'm not a TM game fan to begin with but I have found several recently that I just love and have been getting my feet wet with this new genre. The ones I really like have a relaxed mode and seem to be a bit slower which is great for a TM newbie.
The graphics are good and I actually thought the storyline seemed promising but the storyline didn't pan out like I had hoped. Where I ran into problems is that the action is way too fast for me and I couldn't keep up - even though I did get three stars on the earlier levels that I tried. Believe me, I was exhausted just by playing the beginning of the game and my heart was racing. I happen to like to play a bit slower and take my time and a game this fast is just too much like the hustle and bustle of a busy office environment and I'm done with that now - lol.
I am sure this game will be a winner for those of you who like the fast paced action of a TM game but it isn't for everyone. Sorry to say, Heart's Medicine Time to Heal isn't for me but please try the demo because you might absolutely love this game!
