Christmas Stories 3: Puss in Boots
Based on the Beta and CE Demos
Your character arrives home one evening to find an abandoned kitten on her doorstep. She takes him in, feeds and cares for him, and it's off to bed. Suddenly, she is awakened ....... by her new kitten .................. who is standing on 2 legs ......................... and TALKING! Actually, asking for her help. The Christmas Star has been STOLEN! OHNO!!!!!
Music - The initial game page has the lovely Carol of the Bells . Music continues to be Christmasy throughout. Graphics were well done. Not a lot of visual fx such as making lights twinkle when you click on them, etc. Voice overs were GREAT .... considering you're talking to cats - lol.
Kitten, Santa, Puss N Boots and Custom difficulties.
HOGs were slightly interactive lists. Mini games were quite fun and easy, although sometimes the instructions weren't very clear.
No journal or diary. You have an interactive map that makes the 'hint' button much more appealing (and easier) to use. Your helper is your delightful talking cat, Simon. In one area, you have a 'gadget' to find tools. Hmmm. Sounds like this game has it all.
CE Bling: In addition to the customary wallpapers, music, etc. there are ............
* 36 collectible puzzle pieces - more than 1 can be found in any given area.
* 12 morphing objects - can be difficult to find. I HAPPENED on 2 by accident - lol.
* Secret Room - sorry, no idea whatsoever.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Simon the talking cat. Santa is, unfortunately, very scary looking.
I wanted to LOVE LOVE LOVE this game but came away after the demo with .... it's ok. It's extremely easy so great for beginners. I wish there were things like touching a snowman and he smiles or waves, touch lights and they twinkle .... like the previous Christmas Stories game. It's a cute story with LOTS of cute cat characters. It appears CE-worthy on paper but in reality, not so much.
If you LOVE cats this is the PURRFECT game for you (yeah, I had to go there - meow - lol) because it's ALL ABOUT THE CATS in Catsville! Not a human (or other species) to be found!
Help Santa find the missing Christmas Star.
ENJOY!
Overall Impression: Cute little game but may get the SE myself.
