I've played this game several times and still enjoy replaying it. There's lots to do!
You have the sweet adventure mode where you help a little girl team up with a cute little ball of flame to save her frozen parents. Each screen is completely different from the one before! Adventure mode is relatively short, so they give you both relaxed mode boards and challenging timed boards to play. This one is a keeper!
I recommend this game!

This type of game really isn't my cup of tea...but it's nice for beginners or young children.
This is an older type of hidden object game with no interaction besides clicking on the objects. One unique thing about it I enjoyed was collecting the "12 Days of Christmas" gifts across the entire game. The scenes and music were lovely as well, and they had fun puzzles in between scenes.
Dark Parables: Ballad of Rapunzel

I was surprised by the low reviews...this is one of my favorites of the series!
For starters, this game was much longer than the last. If you've played all of them up until now, you'll get to see the return of 2 children from a past game and one person you helped in the past will return the favor and help you!
This is not your typical Rapunzel story. As usual, Dark Parables creators will throw in other characters from other fairy tales (giving it that "Once Upon A Time" feel). This game has the usual fragmented hidden object scenes, fun mini-games and pieces of story you can collect along the way. The best part was the 20 flower stones you can collect to get the happiest ending...you have a choice of 3 different endings!
I recommend this game!

In this Dark Parable, Jack climbs up the beanstalk with our fairy tale detective in tow to save the love he left behind...and she's a familiar face from the past! There's also a little Rumpelstiltskin history thrown in to make the story more interesting.
I enjoyed this game. The mini-games were a blast, the sky kingdom made for very cool graphics and the music was beautiful. It also had the usual fragmented hidden object scenes (FROGS) and pieces of stories to discover. My only complaint would be that it was much shorter than these games usually are.
I recommend this game!

Loved this Dark Parable! It was nice and long and had a lot going on.
In a tale where Cinderella meets Pinocchio, the Fairy Godmother has turned evil and you must save the latest Cinderella (because apparently, there have been many)!
I enjoyed this one because it kept me on my toes. The map was huge, the fragmented hidden object scenes were plentiful and the mini-games were fun! In addition to all that, you have your usual cursed/shifting objects to find, collecting pieces to learn the stories and in addition, this one had an extra chapter where you find fashion items of 4 different Cinderella's from the past and get to learn their story, as well!
I recommend this game!

Once again, Anna will head into the clutches of danger to save her nephew Brandon!
Anna's car breaks down in a village where everyone has been turned to stone. She'll have to save not only her nephew...but his new lady love!
I really enjoyed this game. It was different from the other games in that Anna didn't do her usual time travel bit. It was nice and lengthy with a teleporting map and very helpful hints.
I recommend this game!

Red Riding Hood has formed a sisterhood to take down the Wolf Queen...who is someone you won't expect!
This game is about 6 years old, so perhaps newcomers won't like having to manually find their way around the map and the hints not always being helpful. I played it on the normal level and had no problems.
I personally enjoyed it. It had all the fragmented object games Dark Parables are known for, beautiful artwork and music and fun mini-games (that you can skip if you'd like). A familiar face from game one will revisit you, as well. This also is the first game where our beloved detective starts being thrown from her horse!
I recommend this game!

Auntie Anna is back again to save her nephew Brandon, this time from a demon that grants him wishes to steal his youth!
I really enjoyed this game. It was nice and long, the scenery was beautiful and the mini-games and hidden objects scenes were fun. You had a puppet AND a cat to help you along the way!
That being said, I could only give it 4-stars because there was a glitch that kept corrupting my data, so I had to keep starting over again.
I recommend this game!

This game is several years old, but still stands as one of the best match-3 games out there!
The graphics are great for an older game. You match up food items that eventually go on trucks and off to the market. You have to unlock certain parts of the board and there are helpers you can collect along the way. There is also a room full of trophies you can win for achievements and the money you earn goes toward improving your farm.
I believe this game goes to over 100 levels, but I generally just play until I've earned enough money to completely renovate my farm. Enjoy!
I recommend this game!

I've had this on my computer for several years and I won't erase it because I've played it at least a dozen times and still love it!
The story line isn't really important...in fact, it's quite confusing. A woman falls asleep and I guess the game is her dream. There are a few ho-hum hidden object games with hard to find items, but hints are available. There are also a few matching card games.
The reason this game is such a winner is that it's a match-3 game unlike you've ever experienced. You match these little balls together, but there's a trick to it and it's often complicated. The games are timed and you win trophies depending on how fast you've completed the round, but your playing time is still unlimited.
Give it a shot...maybe you'll love it as much as I do!
I recommend this game!
