## What is Nevertales?

Cross the border between the imaginary lands and the real world as you fight against a force known only as The Abomination. With it, enjoy an amazing Hidden Object Puzzle Adventure from Nevertales, the famous HOPA  fantasy series!

Nevertales: The Abomination places you in the role of Anea, a young spellcaster, living in a land created from the imagination of real people. Your mentor is the most powerful mage of Inspiria, yet not even her can stand against the Abomination, a rising force of darkness and destruction. With the last of her power, she sends her best student, you, to visit the realm’s creator, a writer known only as Ballard, and ask for help. 

Much to your surprise, Ballard is not the least bit interested in helping. In fact, to Anea’s horror, the Abomination is none other than a terrifying manifestation of Ballard’s personal destructive urges. With terror, you watch as the creator had turned against his own creation. You have to fight it, but it isn’t going to be easy. Also, saving the world is bad enough. Can you save four?

Do you have what it takes to restore the creator’s spark?

Dare you stand against the Abomination?

### 1/5 — State the purchase upfront

*2024-03-04, version 1.0.4*

Just state upfront that the game only allows a small  amount of play before payment for unlocks. It’s a waste of time and seems dishonest.

### 4/5 — Good

*2023-11-01, version 1.0.4*

Really enjoyed it, must admit some of the puzzles were really obscure and could have been designed in another way. It definitely helped time pass

### 5/5 — Great game with new twists

*2023-06-02*

I really enjoyed this game. My favorite aspect involved the spells. Unlike most other games where special powers are used immediately and are gone, this one allows you to use the spells multiple times. I really appreciated that.

### 4/5 — Never tales

*2021-09-09, version 1.0.4*

I brought this game a couple of months back and for some reason I couldn’t do it, I didn’t like the layout of things and I uninstalled it but the other day I downloaded it again and tried to figure it out and wow was I surprised it was a very enjoyable game, great puzzles great storyline and I dig a game with a bonus round, would recommend playing

### 4/5 — Good so far but...

*2020-11-23*

I want to purchase the full game. It’s telling me it’s 50% off right now yet it’s wanting to charge me $7.99. There’s no way the full price of the game is $16 rounded up. I’ll spend under $5.00 to play a game I’m only going to enjoy one time but more than that is too pricy for my logic.

### 2/5 — An elephant ride? Really??

*2020-10-28, version 1.0.0*

An alright game up until the part where you have to go on an elephant ride. In this day and age, honestly!

### 5/5 — Welcome Back Mad Head!

*2020-10-11*

Update: A really great game! So glad to see you back Mad Head. This was an engaging, challenging game. As a retired professor in the humanities, I am always amazed when the narrative, music, background knowledge, graphics, and the technological know-how thrumming in the background work so well together.  Buy this game! And again many thanks to Lynx Minx and others who work to keep us playing these smart games.  I played this game twice, just to see and hear it all again. It is a great value. 1st review—Great little bit I could play but game will not unlock. I emailed Mad Head and they are working on a fix. They responded really quickly but like me, I’m sure many of us are eager for a new game, esp. devotees of Nevertales!

**Developer response:** Hey Ruby! The unlock issue has been resolved! Can you please try again whether it works now?

### 1/5 — Expensive

*2020-09-24*

Says 50% off. When I try to buy, comes up 7.99. Too much.

**Developer response:** Hi and sorry for the pricing issue - could you get in touch with us at https://www.madheadgames.com/contact to see how we can help here? Thanks!

### 5/5 — WOW

*2020-09-24, version 1.0.0*

What a truly wonderful game to play. Long game play as well as a good length bonus chapter, awesome graphics and good story line. I really enjoyed playing this one.
Thank you

### 5/5 — I want my money back please!!!!!!!!!!

*2020-09-07, version 1.0.0*

Normally I love Big Fish games but this one is useless! I’ve been really enjoying it and have got quite a considerable way into it, only to get to a hidden object game that DOES NOT WORK!!!!!!!!!! To say I am disappointed doesn’t even come close to how I am feeling right now, I don’t have much money as it is but to take how much this game cost from me only to leave me with a game I cannot complete is way beyond the pale. So could I please have said money back and I won’t play any more of your brilliant but useless games again. Deleting this one right now!
