Deducted one star because it is such a short game.
Suggestion: Please make the refresh rate faster. Many creative HOPs and puzzles. Teleporting map. A pleasure to play!
Loved the graphics, and of course our little raccoon friend. The only complaint I would have is that the game was pretty short. Sound track # 1 is a haunting yet beautiful melody. Thank you for an enjoyable, but short game.
I enjoyed the mini games particularly. The HOPs were easy which is fine with me since I prefer the mini games. Even including the Bonus game, it was too short, which was why I gave it only four stars. It was excellent otherwise.
Attention Grandparents! — Get ready to play this delightful fantasy-themed game with your grandchildren. There is no hard-core violence here — only magic, creatures, and dragons. The environment is well-designed, with eye-catching visuals that lure me into this extraordinary world of fantasy. We rarely see a helper anymore, which really doesn't phase me; however, our helper has a quirky personality that fits the light-fantasy theme. The graphics are cartoonish, but they suit they theme of the storytelling. You can customize your settings, and the inventory is interactive. In custom mode, the teleport map facilitates seamless travel and indicates available actions. Certain key components, such as the Diary and Collectibles, are accessible from the map. The Diary records light story progression. The HOSs are interactive, and they consist of assorted types. I think the puzzles are entertaining, and some are a bit challenging. I like the one in which you move through the maze, avoiding the trolls. The collectibles are discovered throughout the locations, as well as within the close-ups. The gameplay is easy-going and linear. The demo is ridiculously short to the point that one has to make a decision to purchase based on three scenes worth of playtime. I did purchase this game, however, because I find the change in scenery — from horror-oriented to light fantasy — to be refreshing. There are a multitude of tasks to effectuate within each scene. I did not encounter any technical flaws. I suggest playing the free trial if you desire to relax and have fun with your grandkids.
Note to K-Rano:
I'm not going to repeat what I said in my last review because since you commented about the purported "in fighting," which shows your transparent misconception of our plainly conveyed context, then you must have read our reviews. Assuming you did read our last reviews, then it should have been perfectly clear that we were responding with the intention of explaining why we rate games the way we do. No harm was done.
But, to directly quote you, "if the I are not dotted and t's crossed, you give poor reviews. Plus you show preference/fan boys to some crappy developers." I actually laughed out loud at this inane comment. You have an apparent aversion to one developer in particular, and we both know who that developer is. You seem to take out your dissatisfaction with this developer on other reviewers. Firstly, if you did your homework — perusing through our last several reviews of MadHead games — you would have seen that both Lynx Minx and I rated two of MadHead's games with 3 stars and thoroughly explained the reasons why. I'll even pamper you by saving you the research: "Dark Realm: Guardian of Flames" and "Nevertales: Forgotten Pages." Just in case you weren't sure, 3 stars does not measure up to 5 stars. Back up your facts with the truth, not with a fallacy.
Secondly, you are entitled to your opinion in which you think that the previously named developer is "crappy." But I find it inappropriate when a reviewer makes snide comments — more than once — towards fellow reviewers because he/she thinks that other reviewers like particular games for the mere reason that they are a certain developer's games. See your comment in your review for "Dark Realm," which I quote here: "Oh, but it's a Mad Head Game, we overlook all their shortcomings." Umm... No we do not. Another nonsensical comment lacking validity.
You are the one who is trying to turn this into "in fighting" — your "problem" doesn't stem from our response to the other reviewer. But I'm ending it now; it's a waste of my time and other reviewers' time. Your comments are fruitless. But, Hey! Hey! Enjoy your day.
Cute graphics, straightforward story, happy endings all around. ( except for the villain of course ). If you’re looking for something fun and non-demanding this is it.
I had one technical glitch and had to reinstall to fix it, but it did fix it.
I buy all of your games and this was one of my favorite. The theme is more light hearted then your usual themes. I don’t Iike the evil themes, there more boring if you ask me. If you made more games like this I wouldn’t hesitate to buy them. Thank you for listening to me, I appreciate your time.
I enjoyed the story, and the graphics were beautiful, however, though O had fun playing the game ... it was a bit too easy.
