  • Very good game

    1. Very long game! Extremely satisfying. 2. Puzzles are a bit confusing, but mostly I think that is b/c the developers are trying to break away from the typical structure (or rut) that HOGs have fallen into...they put a lot of effort into putting variety into the usual formula. I was scratching my head a lot, and perhaps doing a bit of tap-tap-tapping when I was thoroughly baffled as to what to do next, but the variety and length of the game outweighed any annoyance.

    All said and done, I definitely RECOMMEND this game!!! The developers, Mad Head Games, did an outstanding job. They even had a couple sung songs thrown in there, like some kind of Disney move :)
  • Great game and concept, really long, but some glitches!

    This could be one of the best games ever, but some puzzles need better instructions, particularly when you cannot skip and you need item it produces to get to the next step. I am lucky someone on you tube figured out lion temple puzzle.
  • Could have been 5 stars, but...

    One of my favorite games. Bought it for PC and my iPad 2 because I love it!! There are some pretty serious glitches, though, through out the game. Pixels and dark screens in places. I had to restart it once. But by far the best game for your money!! LOTS to do, 3 Bonus chapters!! I'm really looking forward to the sequel!!
  • Great variety!

    Very entertaining game with a wide variety of mini games. For me, this was not too easy nor too difficult. There is a convenient help button and easy access to a guide if you need it. Fun game.
  • If your bored with HOGs try this one

    I love hidden object puzzle games, but they get a little repetitious. This one had some of the most creative and interesting HOG puzzles I have come across. Example- the clue is not a word, but a shape of say a bird, now you have to find 5 birds but they all don't look like the shape. In some of the games the scale is deceiving so the item could be large or small. Even one puzzle a character is reciting a spell that you must find the ingredients for... No visual clues- brilliant! There is also very visually different puzzles. There's not all hog games either, some other puzzle types too. Another element I like is that all the clues aren't in just one "room" you find things from certain places that you may not use for quite a while. All in all a great game
  • Great experience!

    This was the first hidden object game I had played and I was hooked! I look forward to the sequel!
  • Never tales:the beauty within

    This is one of the best hidden object games I,ve seen for the iPad. There are games within games and tons of interactive objects in the HO scenes. You won't be disappointed in purchasing this game.
  • Nevertales: The Beauty Within

    Only giving it a three star rating. Oh, it's a good game, all right - and the graphics are outstanding. But it's a little glitchy (had to start over) and the VERY LAST SCENE cut out on me. Very frustrating!
  • Finally, a good game (for the right players)

    I just finished two mediocre games. Hidden Expedition 8, which was WAY too short and boring compared with the last few in the series which were great, and Mystery Trackers Blackrows, which had Elf, which was great, but the rest of the game was boring. wondered if I was just getting bored of these games but, no. This game is really good. Hard to say what makes the difference. Lots of attention to detail and a really engaging story with great cutscenes that draw you in. Two caveats. First, the story is pretty vanilla. If you're looking for demons or asylums, probably not for you. Second, some of the puzzles are pretty basic or simple. If you want super challenging, probably not for you. But if you like nice adventure fairy tale games like the Otherworld series, you'll probably like this. There is enough variety to keep it interesting. Plus, it is about ten times as long as Hidden Expeditions 8 (with its multiple 2 page chapters, not exaggerating) finally, ticks all the boxes like teleport map, customizable difficulty. Hope this review helps. I'm not part of any review group and not a big fan of BF as of late. Just trying to give helpful, honest reviews like the ones that have helped me. Happy gaming!
  • Super fun!

    I play a lot of these games and this is a cut above, the big high points are: the progression is logical, going from scene to scene is fast, the gameplay is varied and interesting, the characters and story are good and the puzzles and hos are different and challenging. Very enjoyable.
