The story in the game is praised for its engaging narrative, rich character development, and beautiful artwork, particularly in "Dark Parables: Return of the Salt Princess," which features themes of love, betrayal, and family strength. However, some reviewers noted that the storytelling suffers from repetitive elements and a lack of fresh ideas, leading to a feeling of padding rather than a cohesive experience. Overall, while the story has its flaws, it remains a highlight of the series, offering a mix of mystery and emotional depth that appeals to a wide audience.
“I really enjoyed the storytelling in Dark Parables: Return of the Salt Princess, including the bonus story!”
“The story for this game is one of the best in the whole series, though elements of it are quite sad.”
“It is one damn good slate; the story about the salt princess and her guardians is a tale about love and destiny, shocking twists and betrayals, and the strength of a family.”
“It's clear that the developers ran out of ideas halfway through, but instead of just trimming the game down to a more reasonable length, they padded it out with reused puzzles and told the same bit of story in half a dozen different ways.”
“They felt a bit more like well-done fan fiction rather than having the same clever story mixing quality of the previous games.”
“However, the story could be a bit better.”
