Review based on 1 hour trial.
Not so much of a hidden object game, the items appear at the bottom and you have to find them in a scene. The finished item then unlocks the next step. More of a puzzle adventure, my favorite kind!
During a blizzard the local children disappear. You, detective must brave the Snow Queen and her icy minions to rescue the kiddies, but it won't be easy. Even getting into her realm is a challenge. Long ago the Snow Queen took over the Frog Prince's forest, and not even the bravest knight has succeeded in breaking her cold embrace. But why has she suddenly invaded the town?
As with the other games in this series, I want to buy it NOW! Waiting for the standard version to come out is torture. Those of you who bought this version please fill us in on the extras. I know the bonus feature explains how the Snow Queen came to power.
The moving story screens are a bit blurry, I've seen much better. But the still screens are wonderfully crisp. Adorable little bunnies stop and stare, and in one scene you can tickle the bats. None of the scenes I got to were dark. I only noticed the music in a few places, which is exactly how I like it, as part of the whole.
During my hour I didn't find anything to be scary. Might be a good game for those who are easily offended by supernatural doings, but then, it's a fairy tale, evil vs good, and of course, magic galore.
Swim on, fishies!
I recommend this game!
