Reviewed by: Carless Yen
Eventide: A Slavic Fable is a (hidden object) point and click puzzler just like you come to expect from Artifex Mundi. As usual it also delivers for fans of the genre. In this title you play as a young Botanist who goes to heritage park to see her grandmother. The adventure begins when the grandmother is kidnapped by a evil character named Boruta. This happening takes you on a delightful adventure through the beautiful park, full of magical creatures. The story delivers, it is fun and comical from start to finish. Only thing is it seems to end rather quickly. In my opinion this may have been the shortest game so far they have released. I was left wanting a little more, but that is only because I was having such a good time with it. The puzzles seemed to be more difficult, and like it was harder to find the things needed to advance you a long in the story. There seemed to be a lot less puzzles then usual though. There was also a little Deja Vu in the lowering of the bridge puzzle, because had done the same thing before in I believe "Nightmares of the Deep". That being said though it doesn't really take anything away from the story or fun in this game.
The game design like always is just beautiful and amazingly drawn. The characters really cool, and well voice acted. The sounds and music, once again perfect and fit right along in the magical story. The controls spot on, and smooth. If you have played and enjoyed their games in the past, then this one delivers the same type quality you have enjoyed from them in the past. If your new to Artifex Mundi games, and enjoy hidden object games, or PC type point and click titles you will with out a doubt enjoy their library of games. We have reviewed a ton of these games, and they always seem to bring the same type of quality every time. So for everyone of the ones we have played, have no problem recommending to anyone wondering about the series of games.
