  • The game features a unique art style and good voice-over work that enhances the atmosphere.
  • Some puzzles are interesting and challenging, providing a decent mental workout.
  • The setting, particularly the Elven kingdom, is described as gorgeous and magical, stimulating the imagination.
  • The game suffers from illogical puzzle solutions and 'moon logic' that can lead to frustration.

    The story is set in a mysterious city where players must uncover what happened, featuring engaging elements despite some imagery being reminiscent of "Lord of the Rings." While the narrative is generally acceptable, it suffers from a lack of coherence and is accompanied by minimal puzzle-solving, leading to some illogical story progression. Overall, it meets expectations for a hidden object game but lacks originality and depth.

    • “The storyline takes you to a mysterious city and world where you have to find out what happened.”
    • “The story itself isn't awful, although I felt like there was a lot of imagery that was very strongly 'borrowed' from Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. The story itself doesn't feel like a copy-paste, though, so I found it engaging enough.”
    • “The story is okay; the art is good.”
    • “Barely any puzzles, some of the solutions for 'furthering the story' are downright silly. I figured them out, but from a logical point, it's just dumb and makes you shake your head like, 'What the heck?'”
    • “This isn't helped by its story, which is all over the place.”
    • “The story was as much as you'd expect from a hidden find game, so nothing surprising there; and like others have mentioned, there's barely any hidden find puzzles in this or puzzles at all.”
