Princess Isabella: The Rise of an Heir reviews

Man, too bad:( After I really Enjoyed part 1 + 2, this is a huge Disappointment. The Predecessors were beautiful, had Wit and Charm, it was all lovingly worked out, comments of "Helper," Texts, Info ... And here? Bad and above all incongruous Graphics-as if they had been cloned together from various Sources that do not fit together stylistically at all-loveless Presentation, reduced Gameplay, hardly any Information about The Happenings (one rattles off dull areas), plus A bad German Translation (E.g. "Precision" instead of "precision ..." Then prefer no Localization at all). The Desire quickly passed me and the Game flew off the record. Really a shame.

When the summary on the page of the game store appeared to me I got scared and right: "mastery the magic to save the mother and stop the witch!" at the same time it's true, the frame is limited to that. Everything is said... It is a sadly short adventure that relies solely on its charm and on the redundancy of some good ideas. The fact of obtaining the power of the fairies by issuing them was interesting. From there to have to wear it again and again proves how hollow the game is for everything else. Likewise for the dragon or the OWL in the bonus adventure. + It would be more of a childish ride and really limited in a fairy tale. The transformation of the magical scenery when washed with all black magic or the deliverance of damned souls has something magical. The little creatures that accompany or meet us are cute but it does not go any further. It's pretty. Point! ---The mini games and hidden object scenes (SOC) are distressing with simplicity. ---The translation really bites the eyes and if in the main adventure one can try to pass aside, the bonus adventure made me cry. It is in no way worth its original price!

The Game is pretty light and quickly played through, therefore rather what for Beginners. Only this one "Bring all The Switches to light up" puzzle is a little more difficult. (Edit: With a Turntable puzzle at the Beginning, you first have to realize that the Turntables do not have to be the same Color as the adjacent Turntables, but that the two shapes in between must be the same Color at a time.) The Artwork looks good, only the Dragon and owl are very cute. One Plus is that there are two "Boss fights." A Little annoying, in turn, is the Search for Objects outside the Hidden Obmills. Here, for example, you often have to break fragile looking stuff with a Wand to get at one of the umpteen missing Portrait parts. What is a Pity is that there are only a Few Achievements left. A Reward for Solving all The Hidden Object Scenes without a tip would be nice. In the last Hidden Object, the Pipe was translated with Pipe, but seis drum ... Overall not a bad Game, but there are some Hidden Object Games on Steam (also by Artifex Mundi) where you are entertained for the same Money longer and/or Better (E.g. Enigmatis 2 or Dark Arcana: The Carnival).
