Well surprise. Another "new" series from Domini. This makes about 10 new series the last couple of months. The thing is, if you play any of them, they are all the same with just slightly different plots (if you can call it that). I'm convinced Sunnyglow is getting a kickback from Domini for the loving 5 star reviews of their games. I was just reading one reviewers ratings of games from now all the way back to the beginning. Went from Wow great game in the past to another awful game by BF. I couldn't agree more. I cannot tell you when I last played a new game that was decent. What happened to Domini of the past? Their games were good. Then they all took on the same exact format with the same format for collectibles and the same format for finding items, leaving out any real story. A child could play this game easily. I am currently playing a very old game from 2011 and wow. What a difference. In a great way. Are those games gone for good? Are we stuck with new series from Domini? Good thing I have a ton of unplayed old games in my game manager because I simply cannot handle this disperse the smoke, make a key, after 2 or 3 scenes we need to close that area so you don't have more than 5 things in your inventory to confuse you. I am not 5 years old. I can think. I love a good game. This one is not it.
For once, just once, I'd love to see a game by Domini that's different than the ones they've released in the last 4 years. It's not this one. I think they have a template and they insert new characters and a couple new bits to a story. This is the same old same old. Easy as pie. No challenge. Ridiculous story which you really don't know is a story bc you are fanning the smoke out of the room. This is eerily similar to Spirit Legends and every other series they/ve come up with of late. I hate giving one star but that's what they deserve. Not sure how on God's green earth this is a 5 star game. The bar must be very low. Same collectibles, same mechanics, same awful voices. Just dig out one you have a replay it. It'll be the same as this one.
The Queen's Tales series was only 2 games long, but this was a fantastic game. It is from 2015 and it truly was a pleasure to play. It was a nice long game and collectibles and morphs and lots of add ons at the end of the game such as a puzzle and other things. I truly wish the games of today could be like these were. Everything about this game was done with love and with pleasing the player in mind. If you haven't played it yet, give it a try. It's very good.
Who is this Editor who is choosing and I'd love to see a review from them on why this game is an Editor's Choice. This had to be , if not the worst, one of the worst games I played. I only played the trial but judging from the guide, I probably completed most of the game. I had freezing issues, plus confusion as to when where and why things were the way they were. This is slop thrown at us. It is a slap in the face to the gamers who supported Elephant and bought their games. This series hasn't been good to begin with but this one takes the cake for the worst. Elephant should be ashamed to have their name on the credits. Enough said. I don't recommend.
This one is a bit different than the other Edge of Reality games. Another reviewer said it reminded her of Enigmatis and I agree. Game play was easy with clear puzzle directions and very easy HOS. Story was different but interesting. I love the collectibles in FF games. They put a lot of effort into their games and it shows. Color is clear and sound is great. No complaints from me. Not quite a 5 star game, but close to it. I recommend.
I think this was one of the first HOG I played It dates back to 2012 and I just replayed it. Didn't remember playing it the first time. It's the first game in the Maestro series back when we had a plethora of developers. I'd personally go with the SE since the CE offers nothing. Be forewarned, this is true of games from this long ago. Lost of HOS. And I do mean A LOT. Some are very dark and there is a misclick penalty that you can avoid by not overclicking rapidly. The hint takes a long time to charge both in HOS and mini games. However, it's a fun game and something different than the fairy tale games we are now getting.
This felt exactly like a Dark Romance game and I have always liked those. Thus I'm giving this 3 stars. The game itself actually wasn't bad if you take away dispersing the smoke, dispersing the steam, dispersing the smoke again, building a ladder or 2 etc etc. All the usual Domini aspects are in here. Not very much to do with werewolves or a cursed moon but oh well. I would get the SE if I did it over. The bonus chapter was absolutely awful. Made no sense at all and was just awful filler. If you want a super easy game, I recommed.
I thought I was really going to like this game. The first chapter was pretty good. After than it became nonsensical and just plain dull. More tedious than anything. It was different than what we've been getting in games, but that doesn't make it good. Seems like it set out to be a nice long game in chapter 1 then someone got tired of writing and just blew past the rest of it including the bonus chapter. I do not recommend this game.
When a famous shapeshifting alchemist is charged with looking into the murder of the king's most trusted agent and friend, the last thing she expects to discover is an intricate network of shadowy criminals, intent on bringing chaos to the land.
This is a series, and game 1 was really good. This second installment was very good. Much more fantasy than the first, but Oh so fun. Brave Giant puts out some great games with so many different things to do. It's from 2016, so there are a lot of HOS but they are fun. There is a story to the game. You are not just running around grabbing fans to disperse smoke. If you haven't tried this series, I suggest it highly. Something different and fun.
I got this as a free game. I liked the other 2 so figured I'd give it a try. Just awful. There was no story whatsoever. The entire game was piecing things together. New characters were introduced in the bonus chapter and I had no idea who they were because immediately, I had to piece more things together for the entire bonus chapter. I would not recommend this game and definitely Elephant can do much better than this. This was super short and lacked any excitement at all.
