story4 positive mentions
  • Engaging and witty dialogue with interesting characters and well-crafted story that concludes the series nicely.
  • Beautiful hand-drawn art style and atmospheric audio design that enhance the eerie and fairy tale horror experience.
  • Varied gameplay combining point-and-click puzzles, mini-games, platforming, and QTEs with a forgiving achievement system and chapter select feature.
  • Some puzzles are either overly obscure, weird, or uninspired, causing frustration or decreasing the sense of reward.
  • Certain gameplay sections like QTEs and mini-games can feel clunky, annoying, or poorly implemented, including issues with timing and controls.
  • Voice acting and narrator's commentary can sometimes feel awkward or annoying, detracting from the overall atmosphere.

  • story

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    36% positive mentions, 37% neutral mentions, 27% negative mentions

    The story across the series is praised for its intricate, hand-drawn art style and multi-layered narrative exploring themes like identity and found family, effectively connecting characters throughout. While some early missions are criticized for simplicity or poor design, the overall storytelling is lauded for its strong world-building, engaging cutscenes, and a well-balanced progression that sustains player interest. Fans appreciate it as a fitting and immersive conclusion to the franchise.

    • “A three-person Russian team – a programmer, an artist, a sound engineer – has built a hand-drawn interactive adventure that works on multiple levels simultaneously: as a hero’s journey, as a story about found family, as a meditation on identity and moral choice, and as the most structurally complex chapter in a series that critics have long described as anthological.”
    • “The storylines in each game are self-contained, but connected in that there are characters that appear in several games.”
    • “This entry of the series also has a strong focus on its story with many small cutscenes and dialogues for world building.”
    • “The very first mission involving swinging is terribly made.”
    • “The second mission is just throwing a pinecone, and that was it—instant drop.”
    • “The storylines in each game are self-contained, but connected by characters that appear in several games.”

  • gameplay

    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay combines point-and-click mechanics with logic puzzles, stealth, platforming, quick-time events, and combat, creating a varied and engaging experience that evolves throughout the series. It balances clever puzzles and narrative-driven mechanics, maintaining player interest with fresh challenges and a compelling storybook aesthetic. The progression of the series also refines frustrating elements, enhancing overall playability.

    • “Compared to previous games, this one has a lot of different and new mechanics that do not let you get bored of the good ol' point and click.”
    • “The gameplay matches this variety: stealth, platforming, environmental puzzles, quick-time events, and combat combine in a structure where each mechanic earns its place through narrative logic rather than the need to vary the pace.”
    • “Perfectly balances a grim, storybook aesthetic, clever gameplay and clever puzzles that will keep you hooked from start to finish.”
    • “It might also be because, after playing the first game, the art style and gameplay that once felt fresh and exciting have become too familiar by the time I reached the third entry.”
