Thank you so much from a game player - have MS but these stories make me forget everything that ails me.
I love it
And hard to follow. Glad it was done
Some of the look and fine images were really hard to find. I also noticed that anything that was found and placed in the inventory it only told you what they were when you found them.... if you tap or hold on the item it wouldn’t tell you what it is again. This made it difficulty when you had a lot of stuff in your inventory and trying to put where they needed to go.
Too short
The scenarios are senseless. Don’t waste your time.
Please make more like this!! Lots and lots of puzzles, and they were really unique as well! I mean seriously, most I had never seen before. I loved the one with the interlocking rings, in which you have to logically maneuver colored balls into the center. Not many HOS, which I’m okay with, and you do each one twice. The mirror/rune thing was a little trite, but way better than just — find amulet, insert amulet, repeat. I had no technical difficulties at all.
The game is lengthy; I didn’t get the achievement for completing the main game in six hours! Like when do we ever have a game nowadays that takes more than two hours including the bonus?? I played this game over three days, lots of bang for your buck. I may be in the minority, but I liked finding the shards. Yes, they are hard to find, (at least the blue ones are), but that’s why I liked it, I love a challenge! It helps if you realize that there are always one blue, one green, and one purple in each scene. If you get stuck or frustrated, the guide shows you the location of every shard. And after you finish the entire game you can go back and collect any missing shards, which then unlock a “hidden” chapter, which is just an interactive HOS.
The only issue, and it’s minor, is that twice part of the text was covered up by the top of the inventory bar. This did not affect the game in any way, so I did not deduct any stars for that.
Verdict: if you love puzzles, then this game is for you!! Thank you GrandMa Studios!!
This game had a lot going for it but it missed the mark. The interface is, at times, frustrating but I did enjoy the unique aspects of the game. It had puzzles and interactions I haven’t seen in other games. I loved the graphics and the shards that you need to find in each scene. Where this game really lost stars for me was the storyline. The premise of the story is really intriguing but it’s almost like they tried to pack too many sub stories into the main story. Instead of being lost in the storyline I found myself struggling to keep up when it shot off on another tangent. It’s frustrating to me because this had the potential to be a REALLY good game if they had tweaked just a few things.
The goods: The best thing about this offering from Grandma is that it is very long; a great bargain! The second best thing is the variety of mini games with several levels of difficulty. There was only one game (the very last one) I had to skip, but that might have been more due to fatigue from all the gameplay than to difficulty. I also liked the storyline enough to keep me engaged though it wasn’t greatly original. The graphics were beautiful with lots of little details (a plane flying through distant skies, a super-charged bunny, facial expressions in floating objects), the environmental sounds were delightful, and this game also had all the conveniences of the teleporting map with active areas, marked interactive objects, collectibles count track, etc.
The not-so-goods: Those shards! They are indeed very hard to find at times, though I have to admit that once I got the hang of it, I enjoyed the challenge. There was one occasion where the shard was actually hidden by the inventory panel (I had to complete that one after the game end) and being up for the challenge meant I spent way too much time looking for it before finally giving up. Which brings me to the technical issues... tap motion was slightly off at times; towards the end of the main game the screen would go dark for way too long (more than 10 seconds, leading me to think it was crashing) during transition of locations/scenes; some slow-motion issues with cutscenes; and objects either partially hidden or too close to the edge of the screen making interaction difficult and causing you to accidentally leave a location. The back-and-forth and the lack of inventory labels were minor irritations.
Because the issues and irritations were minor compared to the enjoyment I got out of playing this game, I’m giving it 4 solid stars.
I am a very avid player of this genre of game and always purchase the new releases on Monday and Thursdays. Even if the game isn’t the best, I can often play it regardless as a nice time waster. I was disappointed that no new game was available Monday,then Big Fish releases a game from 2015, marked as new and slaps their high price tag on it. The game itself was wonderful for the particular time it was made aside from the slew of technical issues. But now it felt super dated and boring. First time i did not purchase the full game in as long as I can remember. Do better Big Fish, do better
