So far so good. There’s huge nods to Daedalic Entertainment’s other games in one particular spot Smile

Halfway through chapter 2 and first impressions are good. Like the art style and overall fairy tale theme. Puzzle are traditional point and click and already pretty devious sometimes. Voice acting and sound are a bit rough in spots.

The witches voice sounds great. The VA really twists her words around well. I’m about a third of the way through now and so far, I have no complaints about the puzzles. They’re explained well and I’m not having to click everything on anything nor jump from area to area in vain. The basic premise of the story is simple, but as you progress you start to see where earlier characters etc fit into it all leading to a simple but solid story.

As Wilco said, the art style and fairy tale themes mesh well in this and create a fun tone to it all.

My only gripe I suppose is the animation seems a bit rough in places (mainly lipsync).

I’ve played few traditional point and click adventure games this year (waiting for all of dreamfall chapters to be released), but so far, this has hands down been the best one of 2015. Even if it ends up not being the case at the end of the year, I suspect it will be floating around the top of most 2015 adventure awards.

I’ll play it as soon as I return from my trip. I remember the first part really well and the game is one of my most anticipated for this year.

I agree. Very enjoyable game, I’m on chapter 5 and development on the story and new characters on the last 2 chapters were good, specially some stuff in chapter 4.
I never played the original release so I wasn’t really sure what to expect and I do agree with fov that the game has traces of classic King’s Quest (in a good way). Also fits great in Daedalic style and catalogue.

it certainly does, i just entered the antique shop and i can see at least 3 refences to daedalic games (clown hat, rufus suit, and harvey bunny).
Fits right in Smile

Did any of you use TK on the hay stack outside the shop? Tongue

There’s also a Broken Sword reference later on…

And some more easter eggs later Smile

I’ve finished it now. Quality with good length classic point and click adventure, I think game keeps getting better with each chapter and ending is good and wraps up the story nicely.
I kind of withdraw my comments about the voice acting because it’s not really bad and new characters that keep showing are mostly very good.
Game has lots of locations and characters, it doesn’t really recycle like some adventures do, so it keeps things fresh.
I was surprised because I was not keeping an eye on it and ended up being some good fun.

Just finished it myself and I have to agree. The story gets better with each chapter and it tells a great, but tragic story well. I stand by my last post about this being up there are one of the top adventure games this year, I really do. The puzzles were logical and well thought out. Maybe the only obscure one being the Swan Prince, but I did work that out eventually.

I look forward to seeing what Kram Designs does next.

Oh yikes can you imagine: apparently some people who bought the game on steam had the credits roll after the first chapter, because they somehow got the preview/freeware version through steam.

Could you please tell me, how you did it? I sit here since yesterday night and I neither can solve the problem with the swan prince, nor the problem with the owl…
