Reveries Soul Collector
Based on both the CE and SE demos.
While receiving wonderful wedding from your future husband, he is whisked through a portal (of course! Yet another portal ) and off you go to rescue him. Sigh. Ah, true love. Why? Because HIS pure heart is needed to open the Gate of Chaos ..... plunging the world into ..... I'll let you figure out what is going to happen.
The graphics were done very well. No over-usage of crayons. The voice overs, while done very well, stop and start willy-nilly once you go through the portal. Hmmm. Music was quite lovely ..... violin dominant. Sound fx - OMGosh .... ghostly moans , birds cawing, strange noises. Yep ... creepy. (hugging on for dear life)
Difficulty: Casual, Advanced, Hard and Custom.
HOGs (hidden object games) are slightly interactive lists and riddles. I saw a creepy shadow moving across one HOG. Creepy!. There is an alternate jigsaw puzzle game if you prefer.
Mini Games: IMO these outweigh the HOGs by number. Fresh, innovative, new and not entirely difficult.
Helper: Yes. Quite different .... and I found it somewhat ..... creepy. (shiver) Do I detect a pattern here?
CE Bling:
Besides the usual music, wallpaper, replayable games, there are:
* collectible feathers - extremely easy to find as they are right there ..... under your proverbial nose .... when you look/find something else entirely.
That''s it. Collectible feathers used to create a giant wing. Sad. Very, very sad. And some of the feathers are in the Bonus Game. So, it seems if you want to complete the huge wing using all the feathers.....you are OBLIGATED to purchase the CE. Sneaky much?
I've played the beta. I've played the CE. Now, I've played the SE and read some great reviews (in regards to how helpful they were). This is, apparently, a very short game with a bonus game lasting less than an hour. Maybe 3 hours tops all together. Hmmm.
I'm torn. I like the story. I like the mini games. I think this is a fun and cute little game. NOT worthy of using cash to purchase. Definitely use a free coupon or bogo sale.
My opinion has changed since playing the CE but I don't know how likely I am to even use a PCC on such a short game. I'd definitely recommend it for Easy or Beginners to this game genre. Experts, I feel, will be bored.
For those who like the "Snow White" inspired game (check out one of the mini games to 'get' this reference), I hope you .......
ENJOY!
Overall Impression: Sigh. I really don't have one.
