I just finished the trial and was immediately drawn into the story. I was surprised how quickly the probationary period was over. So nothing helped, I had to buy the game immediately.
If you love fairytale stories like me, you can't avoid this game. Fantastically beautiful graphics and great-looking actors, plus incredible music - I was mesmerized.
This time, you'll play through the storyline as the sea witch Marianna, helping a princess whose fiancé has been bewitched by a siren.
The well-mixed puzzles and HOs are mostly not difficult, so you don't get stuck on a puzzle for long time and the game has a nice flow. Required items can always be found in the vicinity. Experts will find the puzzles too easy, but for me as an intermediate beginner they were spot on. I only have a hard time with the slide puzzles, they just aren't to my liking.
The hidden objects (maps with sea creatures and puzzle pieces) are also easy to find.
Elephant has once again delivered a wonderful game of good length and I felt very entertained.

While it's a time management game, like we're used to from the other Hermes games, I still find them sucky over and over again and they're great fun.
You sometimes have to be careful about which building you choose to progress, but since you can demolish them and build something new, it's not that bad. (I'm a very good demolitionist...)
There are additional items to collect, which are easy to find in the individual levels.
The game is suitable for all player levels, a beginner will have as much fun as an expert.
I had a great time again and am looking forward to the next part.

I've only played the audition so far, but I'll definitely get the game. The game is just great. Three eerily beautiful stories are told about a woman. Ghosts aren't missing either, so there's definitely a little spooky factor.
I found the game even better than its predecessor. I really liked that I could choose the answers to questions myself and thereby change the plot.
Some of the search objects (in this case books) were very well hidden in the scenes. The puzzle pieces, on the other hand, were easy to find.
The HOs and minigames were a great mix and you can tell that Elephant has really worked hard here and put a lot of love and work into the puzzles.
All in all, I can only say that this is a game that was once again a lot of fun. And a big thank you to Elephant for this wonderful game.

Nice continuation of the Royal Romances series, in which we meet some friends again. Ida is up for a riot again and we have plenty to do to stop her shameful activities.
I love games that have dragons, elves, and magic in the storyline, so I wasn't disappointed this time either. The wonderful graphics are partly beautifully dark and the background music creates the right atmosphere. Plus, there's something for everyone when it comes to puzzles and HOs. There are also some match 3 games built in against an enemy, which add to the excitement. I'm not a fan of rotation puzzles, but the others made up for it. I also like searching for the hidden objects (here: dragon scales, potions and morph objects).

Browsing through the games on offer, I came across the Aveyond series.
I had forgotten how much fun the old RPGs were. Having conversations, fighting, doing quests, buying weapons and equipment, and useful items/potions - just wonderful.
I've been playing "Aveyon - Rhen's Quest" with interruptions for over 60 hours now and I have about a third of it left. And I wasn't bored for a minute!
It's great that these games also run on Windows 10 without any problems.
I immediately bought all the following games from the series and am already looking forward to weeks of fun.

The games from this series always guarantee an exciting murder hunt. In addition to the good graphics, a well-assorted assortment of puzzles is always offered. But slowly I could start as an employee in the detective agency. I always know what to do and what to expect. The only thing that changes is the killer.
I don't want to complain too much now, because that can be seen in many game series.
In any case, the game is well made as usual and at least doesn't let boredom arise.
What bothers me about the HOs is the "time penalty" if I click wrong too many times. I feel a bit tamed there. That's why I often switch to match-3 mode, which unfortunately doesn't offer any innovations either.

This is a totally different time management game and a really nice change.
I was surprised by the brightly colored but really wonderful graphics.
And the cute characters too. It's wonderful how the little witch swings on her broomstick!
The handling was unfamiliar at first, but you quickly got used to it.
And you have so many tasks to do. Really good!
After playing the trial lesson, I bought the game without hesitation.

It's a typical match 3 game that doesn't cause much difficulty even for beginners. It is well suited for in between, if you want to play something different. I love match 3 games and after playing the trial version I decided to buy this one too.
I like the Indiana Jones-style comic story and the beautiful graphics. The only downside for me is the music which is just boring for my taste. It's a matter of taste, others will like it. I had to turn them off or I would have fallen asleep.

I liked the nice story about the helping dwarf.
The gameplay was really aroused by some built-in difficulties. So sometimes you had to think carefully about how best to create the shooting fields in order to break down the stones lying outside.
I really enjoyed the game and I highly recommend it.

I liked that the Bridge-to-another-world series once again tells a completely new story. You can see how much effort Friendly Fox puts in to keep us players entertained and not to deliver a mishmash.
As usual, the storyline, fantastic graphics and background music all come together very well. Everything fits here.
The HOs and puzzles are nicely mixed and (most of time) easy to moderate. The morph objects and search items are usually easy to find, especially since the number is always displayed.
The game has a very good length.
I thoroughly enjoyed the game and am already looking forward to the next game in the series.
