Lovable Classic with lot's of humor, irony and parody!
Quite a well known story isn't it? It has a totally cliche story frame of a fairy tale, for example there is a black wizard who has to be stopped and so on. But then again it's full of humor, irony and parody on fairy tales like The Lord of The Rings, Chronicles of Narnia and others.
By playing it someone could remind of the game Discworld, which has similar story set up and time of playing.
Good:
- Ok let's go to the gameplay.
Well it's has the classic point and click user panel. The best tool for that kind of controlled game is the F10 key which shows you all intersection objects in a place or room. You never have problems with funding objects which are important for the quest, cause usually in almost every point and click adventure you stuck exactly because of this problem. So 10 point for this feature.
- Puzzles,
are mostly logical if your looking through the eyes of humor and magic for a solution, but as usual you always stump upon a rock when you don't have any more ideas.
- Lot's oh humor
Bad:
-Length: The game is a bit short like most classic adventures
-Ending: is totally unusual
