Cliche opening aside, this game is excellent. I was hoping the villain's motives for doing the deed were a bit more romantic (Look at the photos. The insinuations are all there I tell you!), and although they weren't, it was still so much fun to play this game for the plot. It's almost as good as watching a soap opera, but far more engaging.
And of course the graphics are beautiful, as always.

The game is STUNNING. Unlike some of the newer games that rely on gimmicks or the WEIRD factor, Awakening 6 is a solid classic, with a comprehensible (but still surprising!) story and excellent delivery. I wish the game were more challenging (I played on Dreadmyre because I like being stumped), but I realize I'm in the minority in that aspect (my friends never play when I'm around), so it's more of a reflex complaint. Great graphics, great soundtrack and voiceovers, and what an abundance of games!
Everyone else has touched on how great the main game was, so I won't say more on that topic. Instead, I'll focus on the bonus features. These games never have replay value, but Awakening RLF is an exception! I had a genuine NEED to complete the lilies! I was so impressed that Awakening the Goblin Kingdom (3rd in the series) had a tanagram bonus game, but this 6th game's blew me away! You need to find all the collectibles in the main and bonus chapters to have enough stones to buy all the lily seeds, then you have to play a game per seed to actually get one before you can try to find the right combinations with it! And THEN (I almost missed this one), there's a separate collection of infect games (click on the chest!) that're so gorgeous and fun, and my goodness. I can't wait for the iOS version of this thing. I could keep playing the minigames for ages.
P.S. For anyone in denial about the series' end, go and try Awakening Kingdoms. It's one of those games with (nearly) endless HOPs that's so popular on Facebook.
