I find it to be a very engrossing story -- sure there are some QTE's, but it's usually not too tricky. Just a little mental exercise to make sure you're still paying attention every so often. But that's not even needed, because I just enjoy the storyline of this. Makes me think I need to check out more TellTale.
Gah, but this is a fun little adventure game that can really double as an escape room you play in the comfort of your own home. It kind of reminds me of Myst, but what I *really* like about this game is, everything is intuitive. There is rarely a time when a puzzle felt counterintuitive. Yes, maybe that means the game is a little easy, and sure, I finished it pretty fast, but I like that there was never a puzzle that felt out of place or required a weird solution. When you finally figure out solutions to stuff, you're like, OK, now I get it. And I found myself just going from puzzle to puzzle until I found that item that I needed, and then I'm like, yep, I know exactly what I'm gonna do with this. So yeah, this is a great adventure game. It might be short, but as long as you wait for a decent sale to come along, there are FAR worse ways to spend a few bucks for a few hours of enjoyable fun. Well done, Yak & co..
Terrifically fun game -- it's always been one of my favorite adventure games. The costume changes add a nice touch so you don't feel like you've got the same ol' same ol' for oh so long. I didn't find the puzzles overly complicated, which I guess could be a negative. But yeah, if you think about the unique ways that the spellbook potions could be utilized, it doesn't become too tricky. Everything's easier with magic, it seems. Wonderful for GOG to have brought this back from the gaming graveyard. Thanks!
