This game features stunning visuals, a fantastic soundtrack, and delicious sound effects that clink, whoosh, and click in a very satisfying manner with every action you take. (I'm not the only gamer who's got a soft spot for good sound effects, right?)
"Azada: Ancient Magic" is all about the puzzles. In particular, the scenario puzzles featuring unique characters--from Dorothy looking for her slippers to the Invisible Man seeking a cure--are truly imaginative and fun. They are contained within themselves, which means you can put this game down and pick it up hours later without losing the storyline or having to remember which areas you need to re-explore, as in a more linear game, such as the third one in this series. Most of them take under ten minutes, so there's the excitement of constantly starting fresh. Plus, you get a lot of them, so there's good bang for your buck.
Even most of the one-off puzzles that feature classic solving skills, like connect-the-pipes, object sudokus, and match-the-pairs, are well done.
I'm a huge fan of all three Azada games, and this one just might be my favorite!
