I got the CE and enjoyed the game very much. I played the bonus chapter and was very let down. I wish I got the SE and saved my money.
I played the basic game twice after finishing the boring (IMO) and short bonus section, that's how much I love this game.
The colors, story, game play and hours of fun!
The places you get to escape to are awesome. It is just BEAUTIFUL!
There are a lot of IHOG's, so play the demo to see if this is your kind of game.
I recommend this game!

Dark Parables: The Final Cinderella is a fun game, but wait for the SE. The BONUS in the CE was a complete let down. I played the main story twice, back to back, that's how much I loved it...Beautiful!!!
Recommend This Game? SE YES!!!, CE no.
I don't recommend this game.

If you liked the Syberia series then I know you will appreciate this game. I did!
You have to think more than the standard HOG/ADV games out these days and I love that about this game. Well worth a game credit and more... IMO.
Not as difficult & beautiful as the Syberia's games but has the same feel and skill level.
I hope you try it out, as it took me about 4 hours, and then try the Syberia games if you haven't already.
Have fun!!!
P.S My favorite game Is Dark Parables: The Final Cinderella right now but wait for the SE. The BONUS in the CE was a complete let down. I played the main story twice, back to back, that's how much I loved it...Beautiful!!!
I recommend this game!

If you love a challange and a little bit of old-school, you will LOVE this game (and Syberia #1 too).
There is nothing like these games. IT IS A TRUE ADVENTURE!!!
The demo should give you an idea of how frustrating it can be but if it grabs you at all... buy it.
You wll go to worlds that will blow your mind, and meet people that are different and interesting.
The Syberia games are my all time favorite, even over MCF:RTR.
Have fun or get frustrated ...either way it's all about the journey AND the destination!
These games are almost the only time I give 5 stars for challenge.
FYI - This is a continuation of Syberia #1, so if you can, play Syberia #1 first.
ENJOY!!!!
I recommend this game!

I was just going to buy without playing (which I have never done) but I read the reviews and changed my mind. I played the time allowed for free and I am BUYING!!! I love the Snark!!! I don't know what it is...the art, the caractors, the music (i never love the music in games), the sounds, the different type of play, the complete excape, or just the adventure that some day I will see what a snark is.
As you can see I recommend this game and the 2 Snark games that came before.
I hope you all have a BLAST!
I recommend this game!

Yes I know it's a stretch but this game is like Drawn,IMO. The art work is the same, there is a little girl involved, and the characters are like the caretaker from Drawn.
There are only so many places to visit so, the running around is less, there are HOS and games. All good!
It is a shorter game but for one credit it was a lot of FUN!!!
ENJOY!!!
I recommend this game!

I had 6 games credits and I needed a game so I looked for past games that were not CE's. I found this one which I must have demoed but passed up.
I really love this game, it reminds me of a Dark Dimension's game. Easy HOG's, lots of running around, and plenty of objects to find and use. High quality game IMO.
Have FUN!!!
I recommend this game!

...because i never get tired of ERS games and this one is no exception. I ALWAYS love their art work, just beautiful. I feel like I'm in another world and I think thats why I play games in the first place. IMO take another ride with ERS you will not be sorry. Another interesting puppet story too.
I recommend this game!

I like this game way better than the other ICE QUEEN one. There is a flow. The game keeps your interest and is like PuppetShow: Lost Town Collector's Edition IMO.
For the first time ever I am going to use the extras, beside extra play! I want to replay all the cool games.
Who knew, really fun game! Took me about 4 days playing off & on in expert mode.
I recommend this game!
