I love Domini games, and like this series, but this one seemed a bit short. Also, gameplay was very linear. I don’t want to run around in circles, but everything you needed was always a scene away, maybe two. I always love the casual/hard option in the puzzles, I like them hard but I know not everyone does, so it’s nice to see that choice. Domini excels at creative mini games, and I always love theirs. Domini also gives plenty of collectibles. There is not a pattern to them, i.e. one per scene, but there is a handy dandy indicator above the inventory bar. You collect gold to deck out your beach house, cards with info on the characters you meet, and elven, dragon and troll artifacts. I loved the bright colors in the scenes; I get really tired of all the dark blues and grays of most games. Also I had an issue with the music. It was inappropriate at times, for example when your character is in mortal danger there’s an upbeat tribal tune playing. Debated on the rating for this, it’s a 4.5 star game. Originally I rounded down to 4, for being a bit short, but upon playing it again, the breath of fresh air graphics and the wonderful mini games made me round up to 5.
