It meets all of my personal requirements. - I needed three days, each day round about 3 hours to play it through - Great graphics, extremely good animated. - Enough challenge. The game spreads about 5 areas with mostly 7 locations. The objects are distributed all over the locations, so somebody has to be attentive. - HO scenes with interactive puzzles. - A kind of "three step hint". The map indicates with green an area with current tasks. Hint shows the location with the next task, or within the location directly the next to-do. To be honest, I used the hint a couple of times, to take a short cut. - Nice story. - It is quite logical. - Music is not bothersome, fitting noises
I highly recommend this game, if you do like prolonged adventures.

This is a game I enjoyed much. I do play more or less all HO games and adventures, but rarely review them. But this one earned my feedback.
If you like fairy tales it is really great.
My stars are given according to following points:
- Difficulty can be customized. I took the harder puzzle version, it was interesting. Map shows current tasks. Usually I prefer playing without helping messages – this can’t be chosen. But all in all, it was good to have them.
- Storyline: it is exciting, consistent and logical built up (for a myth).
- Graphics: the pictures are amazing, the figures good animated.
- Locations: they are pretty much detailed and nice pictured. Also the background sounds fit closely to locations or actions. Mostly there are 3-5 locations to be explored, if a next area is reached, the older locations are not anymore available. I like that, because you’re not wasting time.
- Challenge: I was not bored, it was interesting enough, but doable. Some puzzles are new or in a way modified, that I did not know them, something I like much. The tasks are mostly logical and spread over 3-5 locations.
It took some couple of hours, so you get a lot of fun for your money.

10 years ago, the game would have been great. But without animated persons, without map, without any incdications according possible places, directions and/or actions, it is not state of the art.
Nevertheless, it was challenging and took some couple of hours to play through.
