This is the first Grim Tales game that I played and it was a good one. I'm looking forward to playing others in the series.
As usual with Elephant games, the graphics are top notch.
I recommend this game!

I'm usually not a fan of the graphics of ERS games as they have this faded grainy look that looks more like pictures out of a children's story book instead of a video game, but I think the graphics of this game seems to have improved over past offerings. The story was hard to follow at times, but overall a good entry in the series.
I recommend this game!

Quite fun and fast paced.
Puzzles and HOS' were decent
Cons:
Typical ERS graphics that looks more like illustrations from a children's book than a video game, I'm not a fan of the look of ERS games.

Very, and I mean VERY loose adaptation of the classic story
Very abrupt ending cinematics
The bonus chapter didn't seem to make a whole lot of sense
I recommend this game!

Judging from the reviews it doesn't seem that this sequel is as well received as Wild Hunt, but I think its pretty much as good. If you like Wild Hunt, you will like this.
In comparison to Wild Hunt, the story seems less fantasy orientated and the puzzles are a little more tedious. Also I'm not too crazy about solitaire but its there for people who like it. I thought the origins of the Death character in the bonus chapter was a little ridiculous but oh well. Overall a good game with good graphics.
I recommend this game!

This is a fun and addictive match 3 game. I thought that the graphics were a bit too cartoonish. Its obviously a game for kids. I like the part about decorating your house. I'm hoping for a more serious horror match 3 game. I'm more of a Hidden object gamer but I like match 3 games as well as long as they are good.
I recommend this game!

Great game with a grotesquely baroque and imaginative setting. It reminds me of the portal scene from Mortal Kombat. The game provides good value because it comes with alot of extras but you only have to pay the standard price since it is not a CE, so thats pretty cool.
I recommend this game!

This is a fun tiny sequel to Dracula Origin, which was not a hidden object game. They decided to make a sequel for casual gamers, hence the more cartoonish graphics. I like the original game better of course, but this is pretty good with good extras as well. Dracula actually plays the hero and teams up with Van Helsing to rescue Mina!
I recommend this game!

This is the very first "point and click" game that I ever tried. The look and feel of the game is great. Not a 100% authentic to Bram Stoker's work but good enough. My minor gripes is the weak ending and I don't like the look of Dracula, he looks too "Twilight-esque", but other from that a great game with a soft spot in my heart.
I recommend this game!

This is the best game in the series in my opinion but I haven't yet tried Testament yet. The graphics are awesome, the faithfulness to Conan Doyles work as well as the historical accuracy to the real life Ripper murders are spot on.
I recommend this game!
