I really wanted to like this game !
Rather than relax me it did the opposite
I haven't played any games since December 2003 due to work so I am probably over critical
bUT It reminded me of old style games with too much hand holding

I managed to play almost all of the demo But about 15 minutes in I got an error code the game closed and it took me back to the game credits However the game went back to the moment before it closed down so I continued on in the game The game play was actually quite enjoyable
But I can't take the risk of another game by this company shutting down late in the game and going back to the start

I have been a fan of Elephant games since Blue Tea days and have been replaying Dark Parables.
Why am I mentioning this because I would rather wait and play something that I can enjoy
While the previous games in this series were ok ,this one is surprisingly good
Large file games are very expensive to produce which is why we often have amazing cutscenes then back to so so gameplay Elephant have lasted 20years for a reason Try the game If its not for you at least check out their other games NB I have been gaming for longer than most gaming companies

To allow a game to be released that has huge problems is one thing But to do nothing about it is a disgrace The cost of membership has increased. the price of games has increased. We are now getting games churned out by certain companies without any thought on spelling dialogue ,they may look pretty but a game with so many problems should be sorted ASAP I have been a member for a serious amount of time and I have tested loads of games away from this site But to have a glitch that stops game play is unforgivable
I don't recommend this game.

Ok ,I cheered when I saw Blue Tea Games were back doing what they do best Make Beautiful games and in particular The Dark Parables series . But the next credit was Eipix who obviously have the control . While the gameplay was perfect . The cut scenes were NOT of the same standard and some scenes jarred with the perfect gameplay Sorry but I could only give 4 stars for that alone. I enjoyed the storyline But it could have been even better Please. Let go Eipix! I think that was why some of the original options have gone! Let Blue tea games control things and do the cut scenes. storyline ,EVERYTHING ! Will I buy it ? Yes the gameplay is like a beautiful book BUT try it yourself see if you agree with me It is a good game BUT it could be Brilliant
I recommend this game!

Domini Games have a very distinctive look and the Labyrinth games probably work the best because of this . But the games do tend to be long, very long and sometimes I have given up or gone back after a few weeks we don't all have 5plus hours to spend on one game ! Having said that when they are good its hard to leave them. This game sits in the middle the story line is an obvious rip off but it does have a certain charm . I can't decide if the problem with developers is their successes make them sloppy or they have to churn out vast numbers of games to meet contracts . I played the Demo and enjoyed it The storyline has been reviewed thoroughly by others and I have nothing better to add Some repetition in gameplay is infuriating but what game doesn't expect you to find gloves ,matches .knife, scissors, oil, smoker, etc etc I am not sure if I like it enough to buy the CE I will probably wait for the SE But I would suggest having an open mind and try it we can't all like the same things
I recommend this game!

I have no idea why someone would mess about with such a clever game, obviously the developers had no idea of the saying "If it ain't broke don't fix it " Ok the first game was straight forward HO'S but after that it was perfect . It may have looked childish but the humour was perfect for an adult to enjoy as well." The collectors Edition"! who thought that up there was NOTHING remotely special about it I played 10 minutes and knew it was not going to improve
I don't recommend this game.
Team up with fantastic characters and complete challenging solitaire puzzles.

Ok I have to confess despite years of playing computer games I am a Newbie to solitaire games . I still play with a pack of cards! Until recently that is, and I am seriously impressed with the quality of the recent games I have tried . This one is definitely up there with the best. The instructions and bonuses are clearly put into the gameplay as you progress. Beware this game appears simple BUT some of the extra challenges are there to make you really think I had to drag myself away as I tried to better my score one more time . As a Newbie I am not experienced enough to go into the merits of it as a stand alone game. I just loved it Oh and it looks beautiful as well .
I recommend this game!
