I like this but I don't love it. I *seriously* lost patience during a long section where the game switches into dream logic/through-the-looking-glass logic. HOWEVER I'm glad I played this because I then played its sequel, Memoria, which is like the Sonic 2 to this game's Sonic 1 (with that dream bit being the Labyrinth Zone).

I recommend this game on a big sale, but not for full price. I've played this game twice once in 2016, replayed again and I only ran into one bug towards the end. I had to Alt+F4 out of the game but loaded back right to where I closed out. That was the only bug I had encountered during both playthroughs. This game is kind of a rough start to this two part series, depending on what type of games and storylines you like, this one isn't bad at all. I really liked the story and I dove right in. This is a beautifully crafted game with a good story, with a continuation of Memoria, it's the sequel. If I remember correctly , Memoria was the better out of the two, I'm replaying that again next so if need be I'll come back and edit this comment. I really liked the game, the story sucked me in, and it was a good experience. I get why the characters are the way they are, obnoxious at times yes, but it's understandable, but it was good to see Geron fighting against what he's always been told and trying to be a good guy. Nuri a fairy is pretty ignorant of the world and gets into trouble. Honestly throughout the story they both grew on me. As for the puzzles, there's a lot of running back and forth, and a lot of the puzzles were illogical and obnoxious, but for the most part pretty straight forward with what you need to do..... At the same time a lot going on and can be easy to get lost and confused. I did have to consult a guide for a couple of areas. It's a good game if you're looking for a P&C game to play. It's a more serious tone compared to other Daedilic games.

A truly magical game with wonderful artwork, surreal and fantastical landscapes and a captivating story. The journey into fairyland was particularly inspiring. The designers were able the capture the subtle, mystical, otherness of the fairy's homeland in a very Tolkien-esque manner that reminds me of his story Smith of Wooton Major, thus presenting their version of the "Wonderland" trope in a satisfying way. That said, some of the puzzles were a bit difficult, and not particularly straightforward. A few subtle hints here and there may have been helpful. Love this game. 8/10

kinda meh, but I guess I'd still recommend it compared to not recommending it the option to highlight interactions really helps a lot if you're stuck, and you can just use the mouse wheel to move through the inventory you could also turn it off if you don't want it

Great story, characters, game in general. Most of the puzzles are fun too, slightly marred by the occasional inscrutable puzzle, that, even after looking at a walkthrough, I couldn't have figured out. Otherwise, this and its sequel are highly recommended.
