The Myth Seekers - The Legacy of Vulcan

5 out of 5 Stars

You play as Amelia who is in a "secret society" (and expert on Roman mythology) whose task is to recover Vulcan's hammer.

You know the guy who used his Hammer and set off a chain of events released the volcanic ash and pumice in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in Pompeii -- or did he?

Juno, Queen of the Gods says Venus can be Vulcan's wife, but she's in love with God of War Mars and then there some revenge and some imprisonment and quite an interesting story thread.

We travel to Italy to interact with several of these ancient Gods of the past to uncover the truth.

We use the several items to create the Thunderbolt to put things right from once it was wrong.

Bellona, Mars only Sister plays a role in this story, but how?

It is a long download, but so worth the time as you're immersed into the game.

You know those times when Royals don't follow the rules and run off and marry a commoner and in anger the Dad, the KIng sends you off to war (where you die) at the same time chases off your preggo wife off to give birth losing her life in the process to bring the new heir Prince to life?

Yea - that's the story.

Now when you and your Brother is set up as murders of the King of the Kingdom of Griffinvale - you get to prove your innocence.

The main puzzles are connect the lines without crossing over the same line for the "battle scenes."

Enjoyed the new Puzzle Concept and the story and the animation was nice, but the ending kind of fizzles out with the "Collectors Edition" second story.


Still B+ Game.

Poor Harold, a man on the police force, is convinced his sister Maya and her fellow building restorers are in danger and trapped in an abandoned movie theatre.

So we must bring in the best Paranormal Detective, that would be you by the way, to find out what is going on.

When does one cross the line?  Well, in Sebastian's story its when he wanted realism so bad that he would kill off the cast of his movies.

Sebastian feeds off others fears so he may return to the real world to create the best horror film of all time.

We have Gorilla's, Fire Jugglers, Hellhounds, Possessions, and even ghosts calling through a cell phone.

And in the BONUS:  What happens when he returns?  


Will there be a final curtain for this maddman?  Or will there be a trilogy in this games plan?

***The only Semi-Con in this game is it seems to go on forever with yet another room or location to investigate, but your paying for a game to get your money worth and I didn't mind overall when the story is this Wonderful.

Enchanted Kingdom: Fog of Rivershire Collectors Edition

You will come up to a chapter where the HINT message will tell you "there's nothing to do here" 

There is if the Spool of Thread didn't disappear so you can advance with the story.

I remember collecting it -- but not in inventory to help sew up the rubber to the smoker to scare off the bees.

Sad because I was really into the story and it was about Chapter 2 early in the story it all feel apart.

PASS ON THIS GAME
(unless they come out with a patch, but as of this date - none given)

Why else would a crazy villain want to do when he breaks out of prison, but want to control the World!

Suddenly cataclysmic events across the world coincide with your brother’s Simon disappearance and your called in to investigate.

Oh!  And he's got your brother Simon hypnotized to do his bidding as a SEEKER can do things -- that criminals can't.

The puzzles are standard, where only one gave me a moment to work, but its the story of you wanting to chase down the guy who is trying to destroy the already established worlds and the AMAZING graphics and art style.  

This is one of collections that deals with SEEKERS and each it just as exciting as the next.

Each puzzle has an info button and a easy/hard mode to solve.

Collect them all.

When your mom is falsely accused of being a Witch and practicing the Dark Arts like your Grandma and she's taken away from the passion of the theatre right in front of your eyes - you might have issues.

Little Amber seeks revenge and using every magic item at her disposal, which includes her own where her tears transform into deadly crystals.

You're the "Honored Healer" who must try to save those she had infected and prevent her from finding the Heart and Lily which where at one time a combo of one powerful sphere that would easily do her evil bidding.

Even bring back the dead to ruin the Kingdom.

You get to try to stop her and if you don't - it will be Game Over.

Plus side:  Tons of challenging puzzles and Amazing graphics.

Minus side:  The ending just Ends.  And the Bonus scene is almost a "sorry the ending of the main game happened" feel.  Also halfway chasing Amber throughout the game you are determined to catch her, but you get the feeling of wanting to whoop her butt for doing this in the first place once you do catch her. LOL
