Steam review snapshots
The story combines several fairy tales into one unique story, and throws a bit of clockwork-steampunk into the mix!Some of the mini puzzles had no explanation, especially in the bonus chapter, so that adds to the challenge.Pros .Captivating, cohesive story .Fairy tale atmosphere .Beautiful, clean, clear artwork/graphics/scenes .Suitable music/sounds/voice acting .Three difficulty modes (no custom) .Mini-map with fast…If you want those hidden/morphing objects (as you can get locked out of them) here's a SPOILER: [spoiler] Cupboard: Bird, Ship HOP…Why it fits
Check it if you want adventure, casual filtered by single-player.
