  • Keeps crashing

    I have enjoyed playing all the games in this series, but this one keeps crashing when I try to change from one screen to another. I have reloaded twice and get a little further each time. I don’t mind paying for the games as long as work. They help to pass the time with everything going on. Wasted money on this one.
  • Spectacular art work.

    Enjoyed every minute. Been playing Big Fish games for 7 years now and never saw another one with more compelling artwork. Puzzles were great, all 5 star altogether.
  • Years of fun!

    I have had this game, and many more! I have never had any problems. I’ve played it endlessly and still enjoy it.
  • Gorgeous

    I got kicked out at the very beginning but I kept at it and got in some other way (don’t ask how, I am no expert!) These Dark Parable Games are so beautiful and I think this is one of the best of the lot! I don’t have a lot of patience for some of the puzzles but that is a personal choice. The beauty of the HO’s makes up for that for me. This one flowed very well and I did enjoy it very much.
  • Reinstall worked

    I was having problems with the game crashing, after I deleted it and reinstalled it worked great and I was able to finish the game.
  • Good game

    The game crashed soon after I started but I deleted and reinstalled and it worked fine after that. Some good puzzles. Lots to do. Good graphics. Story line did not make sense so that's why I gave it a 4 instead of 5. I liked the game anyway.
  • Dark parables: Little mermaid

    I finally started getting somewhere. I place an item from my inventory in its place on the screen and the whole thing shuts down. I’ve already paid for this. I can’t find where to trash it and reinstall according to your help page. I’ve downloaded several of these types of games. Hope I’m not going to continue having this problem.
  • Loved it.

    I thought the story line was fun as I was playing this my three year old granddaughter was watching The Little Mermaid. I had a few areas that were touchy, I would go to hit something and it would pull me back from that area and into another like you wanted to go back when all I wanted to do was touch something in the HOP games
  • Not Intuitive - Got Bored

    First, I had to turn the music off as it did not flow from one room/screen to the next. Second.... the game became less intuitive as I progressed through the story - eventually, I wound having to use the map more as I was picking up items that were for 5 to 7 screens back. Just when I thought I was finished with a room, I’d find an item 30+ mins later and have to go back. Lastly, the story made no sense to me. Sometimes fantasy writers go so off base, the plot makes no sense and I get bored. I didn’t have the crashing problems others had.

    When I start using hints and the map more than my own deduction and comprehension, I know I am done with the game.

    Yawn.....
  • Loved it until it crashed and when it was reloaded started at the beginning again

    It crashed repeatedly in chapter five and then started me back at the beginning again. It also tells me I didn’t pay for it when I did. If you can fix the issue I will increase the number of stars.
