OK DO Games. This could have been a good game. But it wasn't. Poor English. The tasks were so out in left field, I needed to keep using the hint button because I couldn't read minds that day. The HOS are so hard to see. They literally are worse than games from 2013. Seriously. I couldn't even tell what most of the objects were. Nothing made sense to me. I got the gist of what the story was about, however, it was executed in a strange way that didn't make sense. I really am pushing it giving this 2 stars. If I did my job like this, I'd be fired. Seriously. I don't recommend.

I actually played this entire game plus the bonus chapter. It was a long game and kept me entertained. As usual, with DO games, I had issues with the HOS. Some were creative though. If you wanted to play match 3, they shrunk the size of the match 3 board into a board thats much smaller. The story was ok. I didn't feel like I was doing quite as many useless things as usual in a Do game. Unless I'm just adapting LOL. It was entertaining and not too far out there.

I really enjoyed the last Crossroads. This one was a dud for me. I felt the game was totally disjointed. It felt like it was pieced together, making no rhyme or reason. And Eve's voice.... just no. If the last Eve left, the developer needs to get someone with that same beautiful accent. I did not care for the last puzzle which you were unable to skip. Again, it had no rhyme or reason. This really should be a 2.5 star game, but I'm being kind. I saw the next Crossroads came out today. Perhaps I'll give that one a try. Also, I don't think we need a warning to see whatever it is that is supposed to be scary.

I've had this in my game manager for so long but never played it. I am so glad I did. What a creepy story I loved it. I believe I played another one in the series some time ago and also loved that one. I think I made all bad choices because I ended up in pretty bad shape at the end LOL. I loved the HOS. So cool. Not too many puzzles which I was happy about. I'm not a fan of puzzles. This was a decent length game, although I felt the first chapter was rushed.

I love the Fables of the Kingdom series. It's uncluttered and sort of old school which I like. There's not 40 things to do on the levels with a screen totally cluttered. The gameplay is the same as the pervious four Fables. Somehow I thought this one was shorter than the others, but I did not count the levels. The last chapter is sort of a bonus level before you get to the bonus level which is included with the CE. There are 3 coins to find on each level plus an item. I enjoyed it greatly.

This wasn't too bad of a story. Not great, but passable. Funny, I had just replayed all the older Reflection of Life games. What a difference this one is to the older ones. It just seems like developers are cutting every corner they can and putting the minimum effort into these games. I did not have to blow away smoke with my fan, however, or use a corkscrew as a drawer opener. That's a good thing. Bonus chapter was, again, short. Not too great. 3 stars is pushing it with this game.

I kind of liked this game. I like this series, which I believe is modeled after Secret City. It was quite a long game. I still don't like DO's HOS, but played some of them. The puzzles were ok, but I'm not a puzzle person. The story actually kept me entertained and the bonus chapter was pretty good.

I try. I played the entire demo hoping a spin off of Cinderella may be good. However, I am quickly bogged down by finding something to dig up a small patch of dirt because I don't want dirty hands, constructing a rake so I can move a tiny pile of leaves which apparently hinders the opening of the garage door, etc etc. As always with Domini, the graphics are great. I am not a fan of their HOS. I can never tell what they're looking for so I play the match 3 which I'm not a fan of either. It's been a long long time since Domini changed back to making their Match 3 game related. I am going to have to pass on this one. I'm hoping to see some other developers out there come in with a game. I miss the games they made deeply. I will live in the past and replay older games until then.
I started playing the game, and thought, hey this isn't bad. I was kind of enjoying it. Not that I quite understood how the title fits into an elf whose hammer gets de-magiced. And then.... it was over. This has to be the shortest Christmas game I have ever played. Very disappointed in Elephant games. I remember when their Christmas games were charming and magical. Now, it's slap it together and charge a lot for nothing.
Really DO? This is what you manage to churn out? OK, as with most DO games, the visuals are very nice. There however is no music, barely any dialogue except from a very annoying girl. The scenes are so stuffed with "things" I can't find up from down. This series has never appealed to me, but the other games were OK. This one is a hot mess. I don't know what the story is, except the turtles are sick. Please please bring us a game that is intriguing and challenging. Pretty please.
