More classic fairytale characters than you can shake a stick at, May 31, 2024

A game that takes lots of fairytales and nursery rhymes and mashes them up into one very lively village of characters!

A nice solid tutorial means that the player knows how to do things specific to the game that are sometimes considered advanced for beginners, such as SEARCHING and LOOKING UNDER things.

The game is straightforward and relatively linear with nice easy puzzles – exploring everywhere available will get you all the items you need.

There are a few loose ends and red herrings due to the flavour from the exploration, and a few odd barriers (you can’t (Spoiler - click to show)carry water in the mug because (Spoiler - click to show)‘it’s made for carrying ale, not water’), but the endgame is fun and satisfying (though I think it would have been more so if the game hadn’t been quite so explicit about how to solve the last puzzle – it feels like you’re being told the answer outright).

Another fun and enjoyable game at the right level for beginners, and another worthy addition to the ever-growing TALP subgenre.
