I was so excited when I saw a new MCF game and Dire Grove, which was my favourite.
I think its a good game but very run of the mill, nothing like the original. It seemed a bit been there done that sort of game. I havnt bothered to buy it and will probably wait for the SE. Bring back games like the original Dire Grove please Big Fish
I recommend this game!

I always look forward to seeing a Dark Parables game and was going to buy this one without doing the demo. So glad I didnt. Why have Blue Tea teamed with Eipix, who have so many games of their own coming out its almost too much.
This game seemed to be about finding stuff, picking it up and then putting it down in a different place. None of the magic of the other Blue Tea games. What a shame.
I don't recommend this game.

I liked the story and think this game is worth looking at and playing the demo, and I bet you will like it.
It is light hearted fun. Thought the graphics were really good and its a bright colourful game. I enjoyed it!
A fire breaks out during a concert, and now your daughters are both missing. Hurry to track them down – their music may hold the key to life and death!

This storyline has been done to death, and much better.
This is not a CE game. The graphics were poor and the map and hint button not much better.
Its annoying to have to collect the music sheets, and put the codes in all the time.
Disappointed, always look forward to thursdays game but couldnt even finish the demo.
I don't recommend this game.

I loved the last Myths of the World but just couldnt get into this game. I didnt think it flowed well and that the graphics were grainy. Vampire games have been done to death!
Just found that this game irritated me and I found it hard to finish the demo. In fact when the demo finished I was relieved.
Disappointed.

What a boring game. The worst ers game I have every played. I want games that take me to another world. This game thinks its clever by rewriting history. Stick to fairytales.
I don't recommend this game.

Was so excited when I saw this game, as I really loved the first Royal Detective.
It was a disappointment from the beginning. The graphics and sound were nothing like the first game. No rooster! Princess is not likeable. The games were poor, and it was so short.
Why spoil such a good idea Elephant Games. I used to love all your games but lately they have been a rip off. This isn't worth a collectors edition, don't waste your hard earned money.
I don't recommend this game.

Just finished the whole game and sooooo dissapointed thats theres no extra bonus game in the collectors edition. When I was getting to the end of the game I was so looking forward to more game play.
Having said that, its a brilliant game. Very impressed and loved all the scenery and backdrops. Its got a very morbid story line so dont know if I will go back to play it very often, cause once you know, you know. It saved my weekend so thankyou for that. Keep the spookiness coming!
I recommend this game!

Finished the supposedly hour demo after 40 mins!
How are we supposed to know if we like a game if we dont get the full hour?
There was a lot of talking at first and the puzzles were really easy. It didnt draw my interest in.
I read one reviewer says it only lasts for 2 and a half hours so I would definately not pay that for a CE thats so short. and doesnt seem that interesting.
BFG we like our games longer!
I don't recommend this game.

Seems quite a good game, but the supposedly hour demo finished with 24 minutes left to play! Its hard to know at this point if the game was good enough to buy.
I wasnt keen on the hidden object part of this game, as it was finding things like horseshoes and then putting them in the scene, bit boring.
The storyline about dracula seemed good, but like I say I didnt get enough time to play to work out if it was worth buying. Hate is when this happens. If they want us to buy the game they should have a proper hour demo.
I recommend this game!
