  • The game features beautiful graphics and a charming story, making it visually appealing and enjoyable to play.
  • It offers a relaxing gameplay experience, especially when played in relaxed mode, allowing players to unwind while matching tiles.
  • The ability to save progress mid-level is a significant improvement, making it easier to manage longer levels without losing progress.
  • Levels are excessively long and can take over an hour to complete, leading to a tedious gameplay experience.
  • The game suffers from repetitive gameplay and a lack of variety in tiles, which can diminish long-term enjoyment.
  • There are bugs that can prevent players from progressing, such as issues with level completion not registering correctly.
  • story
    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in this match-3 game is described as charming and amusing, featuring a classic medieval theme with castles and royalty, complemented by well-acted cutscenes. While some players appreciate the engaging lore and multiple maps, others criticize the plot's repetitiveness and the excessive busywork required to progress, which detracts from the overall enjoyment. Overall, the narrative is seen as a fun addition, though not the main focus of the gameplay.

    • “It continues the story and takes players back into the exciting, funny, and charming lore found in the original tale.”
    • “This is a fun match-3 game with an adorable story line and a great number of levels.”
    • “The game also has a nice tongue-in-cheek story, though that is clearly not its main focus.”
    • “It was the same storyline set in times of castles, kings, queens, etc. Totally fun, but enough is enough.”
    • “I'm really not a fan of the story's plot - at least not for the cutscenes in the early rounds of play - but at least they're well-acted.”
    • “The story was not very good; however, the graphics were great, and the game was a lot of fun.”
  • grinding
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious, with lengthy levels that can take over 10 minutes to complete, leading to a monotonous experience. While the game offers a blend of narrative-driven RPG and match-3 elements, the need for extensive resource farming is criticized, especially when it contradicts the developers' claims of avoiding grinding. Suggestions for improvement include shorter levels, more variety, and reduced busywork to enhance gameplay.

    • “No grinding necessary when completing levels 100%.”
    • “The grind is rewarding and keeps me engaged.”
    • “I love how the grinding system allows for character progression and customization.”
    • “Besides numerous areas, each level is tedious and takes more than 10 minutes to explore the entire map.”
    • “It's super tedious with levels that are way too long.”
    • “Since you only carry over power-ups from the main game but not resources, unlocking those would have required farming tens of thousands of materials, something they categorically said wouldn't be necessary after the final task of the first game wanting you to have 20k of each before you could call it a day.”
  • graphics
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game are generally praised for their beauty and appeal, contributing to a relaxing experience. While some users found the story lacking, the visuals were consistently highlighted as a strong point, enhancing overall enjoyment.

    • “The graphics are stunning and really enhance the overall experience.”
    • “Positive, kind, with pretty graphics and relaxing puzzles; I mean yes for it!”
    • “The story was not very good; however, the graphics were great, and the game was a lot of fun.”
    • “The graphics are underwhelming and lack detail.”
    • “The visuals feel outdated and do not meet modern standards.”
    • “The graphics are inconsistent, with some areas looking good while others are poorly rendered.”
  • gameplay
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is largely a continuation of previous mechanics, offering more levels and enjoyable movement options, though some players desire new mechanics, smaller levels, and reduced busywork for a more varied experience.

    • “The game mechanics are exactly the same, and you can think of this game as a continuation with more levels but with some nice additions.”
    • “I'm a bit more used to the move mechanic now, and it's great fun when you actually want to move about the map.”
    • “The game mechanics are exactly the same, and you can think of this game as a continuation with 'more levels' but with some nice additions.”
    • “Bring in new mechanics, smaller levels, more variety, less tedious busywork, and it should be fine.”
  • humor
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game retains the quirky charm of its predecessor, featuring a continuation of the original's funny and engaging lore. Players appreciate the detailed world map that enhances the comedic experience, while the characters are consistently described as hilarious.

    • “It continues the story and takes players back into the exciting, funny, and charming lore found in the original tale.”
    • “The world map is also detailed and conveys a good sense of humor, which applies to much of the game.”
    • “The characters are hilarious.”
  • replayability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviewers suggest that the game's replayability could be significantly improved with more varied content, indicating that the current experience may become stale over time without additional elements to keep players engaged.

    • “The variety of choices and paths you can take makes each playthrough feel fresh and exciting.”
    • “With multiple endings and character builds, I find myself coming back for more every time.”
    • “The dynamic events and random elements ensure that no two games are ever the same.”
    • “Mixing this up a bit would make it far more playable long term.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the Steam collector's edition is noted to be unchanged from the first game, which some players find disappointing and indicative of a lack of effort. While the game is enjoyable for casual play alongside other media, the absence of new music contributes to a sense of repetition.

    • “Excellent game to chill with while watching videos or listening to music.”
    • “Unfortunately, they didn't make it so that explosions exhaust veins immediately, and I don't think there's any new music either, which is lazy.”
  • monetization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features no microtransactions, allowing players to fully immerse themselves in the adventure without any disruptive monetization elements.

    • “There appear to be no microtransactions, so you can fully enjoy the adventure without annoying hindrances.”
  • stability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report that the game runs smoothly on Linux, indicating strong stability on that platform.

    • “Runs great on Linux.”
