Another great installment of the Grim Tales series! Even though Elephant is known for their monotonous gameplay of: find amulet, insert amulet, receive another amulet, repeat ad nauseum, somehow with this series they up their game and make the gameplay interesting. The hos are quite varied. Mini games are unique, and range from easy to medium in difficulty. The length of the game is about average. Both the main game and bonus have interesting stories. This was a really fun game to play!!
The cons: I really dislike having tasks or objectives come up on the screen, and as how there’s an option In the difficulty settings to do away with this irritation, they should go away but it never ever works! This is not just a fault of Elephant, but all the developers, and it drives me crazy. Especially so in this game, as the “completed task” and “ new task” take forever to leave your screen, and you can’t hurry them along or do anything in the scene until they finish. Ugh. Also, Richard is one of my favorite characters of all time, however they’ve changed the actor playing him! Instead of the deep, spooky, echoing voice, they’ve replaced it with what sounds like a whiny teenage boy! No emotion at all in his voice, he just reads the script and that’s it😔. Deducted a star for the annoying task messages and for the abomination of replacing Richard. Otherwise great game!
