I certainly didn't think this was where the Three Bears story would go. >.> Especially with a touch of Midas curse.
I can't offer much on telling you about this game as it would spoil the characters that came back and the newer powers that were introduced.
But otherwise it's still interesting, even if the puzzles are back to HARD. Only this game has "Casual... HARD... INSANE..." Modes. Lol.
Still works. We... I keep going. Thanks you! :) :> :D
(Another game to give me "False Positive". Just a heads up.)
Love the fairytales that are in the story and how they all interact with eachother
This is the tenth game in the series. Just wait to buy it in the 50% off sale that runs every now and again. Of the first ten games, it and Queen of Sands are tied for the worst one. Eipix took over making these games and they're just not as good as Blue Tea.
The release order of Dark Parables is:
Curse of Briar Rose
The Exiled Prince
Rise of the Snow Queen
The Red Riding Hood Sisters
The Final Cinderella
Jack and the Sky Kingdom
Ballad of Rapunzel
The Little Mermaid and the Purple Tide
Queen of Sands
Goldilocks and the Fallen Star
Swan Princess and the Dire Tree
The Thief and the Tinderbox
Requiem for the Forgotten Shadow
Return of the Salt Princess
The Match Girl’s Lost Paradise
Portrait of the Stained Princess
I really enjoyed the story telling of both the main story and the bonus chapter of Dark Parables: Goldilocks and the Fallen Star. The hidden object puzzles were fun and all settings were beautiful. I admit to skipping most of the mini games due impatience, so can't comment on how simple/difficult they may be.
Another good part of the DP series. this time lokilly only one minigame that was repeatedly put in, but this at least had a reason. The only thing what was interesting is: None of the characters where sympethatic. There where 2 or 3 minigames that i didnt really like but all in one a nice and solid game. I can recommend it to all DP fans and all HIO (HOG) fans.
Same old HOG, different title
My honest view on this hidden object game was meh. If I could have given out a neutral review then that's what this would be.
This is another entry in the Dark Parables series, where a Fable Detective (you) comes along and unravels or solves a case centred on some well-known fables. In this case it's obviously Goldilocks. One of the better aspects of these games is the story is often unique and takes place after the original stories that we know so well. So there's no angry bears or trying out different sized chairs, beds or meals in this one.
I don't have a problem with the story or the in-game achievements (sadly no steam achievements in this one). The story was about what I expected based on my previous forays into the genre, but considering the limitations of the genre, I doubt any mind-blowing plot could ever truly grace us with its presence. There's always going to be story elements you'll remember from other games (if you play other HOGs). At least there's no annoying furries in this game.
The one thing that really annoys me about the genre as a whole (and I may have mentioned this in other reviews) is the lack of ambition development seems to have. Cutscenes are always the same cardboard cutouts in motion, people always look so warped once they start with the facial animations. Thankfully I don't pay much attention to all that nonsense. I don't play these games for the story, I play them for the mess scenes, trying to find things in them, figuring things out. Not all of the mess scenes are fun either - So many of them seem easy to begin with - often you find the items you are looking for stand out from the scenes, such as slightly clearer artwork, a different level of brightness or colour - but I always seemed to get stuck on one item, and it's size or colour would be nothing like the little reference picture you get.
I probably could have not bothered with this game and it wouldn't effect my life one way or the other. If you like HOGs as a genre, you'll get it anyway. Maybe you need it to help you sleep.
This is Dark Parables #10, another smooth and satisfying entry from Epix. Though it's not very long, all the content is excellent, including great puzzle mini-games and hidden-fragment scenes. I enjoyed those so much that I played them over and over in order to get full achievements.
Again, the story is not very exciting, but presented well.
Very good.
Another of the Dark Parables that is a wonderful game to play and as usual the graphics are outstanding. The mini games are not all run of the mill which I found quite brilliant. The variety is one unlike any other H.O.G. I have played as of yet. The only tiny negative I have is I found the story line a bit on the boring side. But hey, that is just my opinion. Great game and as always well worth the money, Thanx
This is one of my favorites in the Dark parables series. I like the story line because it made sense to me (as several of them often seem jumbled and poorly though out) but this one was on point with the graphics like normal. I didn't think the HOP's were too easy nor too difficult.
The main story is actually pretty good. The bonus story doesn't make any sense, based on the premise that a wished for miracle would stop at a country border. Still, good enough.
Dark Parables is one of the BEST HOP game series I have run across and by far one of the most fun. I own almost the entire collection to date and would love to continue adding to my library. Buy the bundle or when they're on sale and you will literally have HOURS of fun. Each of these games takes me roughly 6 hours. Well worth it!
Dark Parables #10. A series of fragmented object games with puzzles and stories that each stand alone, but are also interconnected in the form of recurring characters. But each game tells its own story and they can technically be played in any order.
This is one of the newer games in this series, so there is fast travel. There are also achievements within the game, though they don't show up on Steam. There are collectibles that unlock lore. It also has a bonus adventure.
The story for this one completely reimagines Goldilocks as a princess with the Midas touch. Not the best story in the series, but pretty good. Recurring characters include Jack from DP #6.
Dark Parables:Goldilocks and the fallen Star is a Wonerful game hope steam keeps making them.my name is jimmie
Great Game
Short version: 71%
Dark Parables 10 has a surprisingly engaging story with some predictable fragment object gameplay elements. It is better suited for those who are not familiar with Eipix's portfolio.
Long version:
So… Goldilocks is a martial artist, whose sister is a queen trying to take over the world by unleashing an army of robot bears to find a wish-granting star. I guess we definitely see a unique interpretation of the Goldilocks story.
Despite the strange premise, the story is excellent. It has a good supporting cast, nice pacing, and some exciting twists. Overall, Goldilocks and the Fallen Star is probably my favourite Dark Parables games from Eipix.
I wish the same were valid for the gameplay. If you are familiar with Eipix's hidden object games, then you will know all puzzles by heart. If not, then you will simply find them repetitive. The fragmented object scenes range from great to downright obnoxious. Finally, the adventure game portion is an endless search for wall sockets and things to put into them.
Oh, also, do not even try to search for the bonus collectable snowflakes without a guide. I am sure it is physically impossible.
Although I did prefer this game over The Little Mermaid and the Purple Tide the change in developer is quite detectable in both games, by which that they have a slight but distinctly different feel to the earlier editions in the series.
The facial expressions are amusingly disconcerting, as is typical with the Dark Parables series, and while they are less clear in purpose than in earlier iterations the items are very pretty.
The plot felt like it came across better than that of Purple Tide, and the 'action' and manual item interaction scenes are really, really good and I'm glad they were introduced as a design aspect and mechanic.
Good game, beautiful art, nice music.
HOPs can be challenging (and occasionally frustrating, since sizes can be unexpected - better than in some earlier games in the series, though).
The puzzles are excellent in this game (although figuring out the mechanics - as opposed to the puzzle - can be frustrating in 2-3 spots).
This game took the idea of the "hidden object" per scene (a snowflake, in this case) just that one step too far. Good luck with the snowflakes, Detective. Be prepared for dark on dark, light on light, and more than fifty shades of grey.
A good story; those of you who have seen the 2006+ Doctor Who series may find certains parts reminiscent. I think some of the earlier games in the series had more depth and build up in the story, but this one's still fine.
I enjoy these games a lot, despite the occasional flaws.
8.5/10 overall, but I thought the puzzles were more interesting than usual.
