Conclusion first,I like it!This game is perfect! CV,character model,gameplay,more little games,more thinking,rather than continuously looking for hidden objects,COMPLETELY beat Artifex Mundi. There's no Chinese language,dishonest label,text is easy to understand though. Very traditional old-fashion story,going to somewhere mysterious,finding the missing dad,reminds me of Johnson's movie"The Mysterious Island".Old,but still interesting. Spoiler: No one dies in the game, very old-fashion,emm,acceptable,I guess mom was “killed” by the evil magic PS: Strange,the girl,I mean "I",saw an elf in my old house,didn't panic at all.I mean,wow,she was so calm.

Nearwood - Collector's Edition is FRAG (fragmanted hidden object game), adventure, point & click puzzle game. Plot summary - Your name is Jane Lockwood, you have been living with your aunt almost your whole life, until one day your aunt passes away. You soon reveal the truth behind your Lockwood family, including your mom and dad. You travel to your family's old home in the woods and meet fantasy creature called Fey in there. He tells you that there is something horrible happening in the other world behind the mirror called Nearwood. Nearwood is filled with all sorts of fantasy creatures all cutesy and lovely, gnomes and mermaids for example. There's also a timekeepers, who keep the time running nice and smoothly in the lock tower, but some time ago Jane's father messed up with the time and freed ancient old evil from it's grave. Jane's mission is to help restore the Nearwoods peace and find her parents. Extra chapter summary - You need to travel to the fantasy world of Nearwood again, Fay has asked your help with a monster who freezes everything to a snow and ice even tho Nearwood has always been summery warm place. I really liked the plot. Even though the base lane of the plot wasn't anything special (beat the bad guy, restore peace.), it was executed nicely. Characters were decently interesting and even when there was predictable plot twists and ending, it wasn't deadly boring. I watched all the cut scenes and discussions without even wanting to skip. What comes to the artwork it was amazing, if you have enjoyed My Brother Rabbit , i think you going to like this. It's so colorful, fantasy themed and resembles some old dreamy children's books. Game otherwise don't resemble My brother rabbit tho, so don't misunderstand me. Music and sound ambience was quite fitting and decent, if i'm being honest i didn't paid that much attention to music while playing so can't really say much other than that i know it wasn't repetitive or annoying, since i didn't make any noticeable remarks. There was decent amount of voice acting and it was surprisingly well executed. Sometimes you get hit and misses in games like these and not so funny scenes turn to amusing ones, because voice acting is so bad, but i'd say this game it was pretty good. Game mechanics were great, didn't encounter any glitches, typos, bugs or anything else that would interfere with the game play. Playing itself was somewhat easy, getting forward in the game was pretty easy, but i'd say some of the puzzles took me a little longer than usual. So the game wasn't just mindless clicking and end. There was decent amount of HO scenes, variations to them and they weren't repetitive. Have to say that there was boss fights, which aren't really common in games like these, even though i have seen them few times. Also got have to say that there wasn't free use of fast travel and you needed to wait some time to it recharge, which is somewhat unusual in this genres game. Usually you can just travel whenever you want without waiting. You can also collect cute little creatures to unlock pages from the storybook, which i thought was nice addition. I would say this game is good to all ages, but i don't think that smallest kids let's say under 10 would get the puzzles without any help. Plot wise this game could be suitable for kids, it didn't contain any gore or nightmare material. Maybe together with a parent so they could help with the harder puzzles? I like that there is extra chapter after completing the main plot and extra content in the lobby, but this game does not have steam achievements to unlock. I personally like to play complete games to my profile, so it's kind of a bummer when i play games that doesn't offer the opportunity to raise my achievements. Summary from review and price - If you like fantasy themed point & click games and you like the artwork of My brother rabbit, i would recommend this game. Price isn't something out of this world, but i still would wait it come to a sale since the game itself doesn't that long to play and games like these often are played only once, since there ain't anything new if you would play it again. Pros • Beautiful artwork • Decent plot line • Extra content & chapter • Variety of puzzles Cons • No steam achievements • Price • Maybe not suitable to younger kids due to puzzle difficulty Story □ Bad □ Could be better □ Decent □ Good ☑ Enjoyable □ Immersive Artwork □ Bad □ Could be better □ Decent □ Pretty good ☑ Beautiful □ Amazing Soundtrack □ Bad □ Could be better □ Decent ☑ Good □ Immersive □ Eargasm Minigames difficulty □ Toddler could solve □ Easy ☑ Medium □ Advanced □ Hard □ Had to check on google Overal gameplay difficulty □ Toddler could solve □ Easy ☑ Medium □ Advanced □ Hard □ Had to check on google Audience □ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Young adults ☑ Adults ☑ Seniors
