I'm a big fan of the Nevertales series but this one might be the best so far,in my opinion!
Taleworld is in danger(again) and you are the only one that can save it including your boyfriend.
The HOPs were varied and very cool and the mini-games were relatively difficult!
I recommend this game!

I had never heard of Vacation Adventures or Casual Arts...until now!
For those that are tired and just want to play something relaxing and simple,this game's for you!The mini-games were good!The Hidden-Object Scenes were also great with difficult items and collectibles to find!
There are 2 collectibles.Lost and Found items which can be easily found,as they are shown as shillouetes.And Trash items,which are more difficult to find as they camouflage themselves with the environment.
I'm not gonna repeat what everyone has said!This game was great and I strongly reccomend it for those HOG lovers out there!
I recommend this game!

A nice finale to the anthology of Eipix's beautiful world of cinema,actor scandals,lethal projector necklaces ect.!The music is beautiful,which can also be downloaded and be heard several times!The gameplay is difficult sometimes and some other times it's like playing a 3-year-old game.The locations and graphics blend nice into the gameplay,making it look really cinematic!The EXTRAS are usual(HOPs,puzzles,wallpapers,concept art,a tribute video to the 5 previous games ect.)but there are also some CC(candy canes) and CS(Christmas Stockings) to find!Eipix really di go into the Christmas Spirit so the series ends in a celebration!So,Merry Christmas to Eipix for their creativity and good luck to better games in the near future!
I recommend this game!

As usual,like all of the Dark Parables games,we play the dedective and get mixed with fairy tale cases.This one is about Goldilocks!
The gameplay is good and the landscapes were carefully drawn and designed,some by Blue Tea and some by Eipix,the difficulties are 4(3 and a custom one),the usual extras with wallpapers,screenshots,replay HOPs and mini-games ect and the collectibles are 40 snowflakes and 21 parables and when you reach 3 or 6 or 9 parables ect. a new story is unlocked in the parables section.There are 5 stories in the main game(15 parables) and 2 on the bonus chapter (6 parables).
The HOPs are fragmented,as all the Dark Parables games and some mini-games are difficult,while some others are very easy.
The story is a good one in my opinion and I give this game 5 stars because of its rich gameplay and graphics.
I recommend this game!

This game was just clever and innovative with its puzzles and riddles!There are like 4 big places where you go seperately to find 4 crystals for a staff to 'defeat and win the ultimate monster of all times'.The puzzles were very tricky and the Skip button with the pyramid and the godess just took too much time to load!For puzzlers it might be their favourite game,because I bet there are more than 30 puzzles and I doubt if I'm wrong
The graphics were decent and liked that they pictured Egypt's landscape with all of its places and whereabouts.
Also I really liked that there's no a PLAY BUTTON(LOL)there's just a map and you decide where to go.It was a pretty different way to start the game,because I always look for a BIG RED BUTTON saying ''PLAY'' and I was worried that there was no game at all!
So I reccomend the game and wish the best to the dev that made it!
I recommend this game!

After Dire Grove,Sacred Grove this game was something really different that made want to play more!The story is just so interesting that you really are curious about the ending and here I'll write my observations for the game(based on the first 6 chapters and bonus chapter):
1.It had 5 super puzzles which sometimes were difficult to understand
2.The mini-games had a lot of variety(a chemical one,a sliding one)
3.The Hidden Object Scenes were only a list of items with a difficult mini game on it and a morphing object.
Collectibles:1.34 ravens(that means 34 locations is the game and half of them are panoramic!)
2.16 morphing objects which can be found is Hidden object scenes
3.And souvenirs where you go to every location again and collect an item
EXTRAS:If you get the CE of the game it has a bonus chapter which s some kind of prequel to the main game.Also the ability and collect ravens you missed!Souvenirs,concept art,wallpapers and soundtracks
So I think I covered all the things I wanted to say and I strongly recommend it!
I recommend this game!

When I decided to use my coupon on this game I didn't expect it to be that marvelous because everything looked like I just bought a CE.It had collectibles(6 swords on every part of the map),really carefully drawn scenes with the beautiful physics on the go,it had a bonus chapter,which is really long and there are archievements which are really difficult and they're divided in 3 parts:bronze,silver,gold(In the gold archievements you had to guess it from the title,because there was no desription)
Now for the game play.The interface looked pretty good and ordinary and the storyline was just amazing and I was really intrigued by it*.
Also the only thing that I didn't like was the music that It played again and again but it's not a CE so I didn't expect it to have a 2nd soundtrack.
So that's what I have to say about it and that I strongly recommend it,because the developer has made an amazing try and I don't think that it should go unseen because it's not a CE
I recommend this game!
