Great game!

Queen of Sands has depth and width. The graphics are great and the movies are cinematic. Lots of great many games, and the bonus section is wonderful. I especially liked the ability in the bonus section to go back and hunt down the souvenirs and collectibles.

Before I played this game I read the fabulous KimTwilight's recommendation about the New York games by that unheard of developer. I really appreciate it and have loved all the games you have recommended thus far! I am playing and loving the Mafia one (except for the collectibles and morphing objects, which I am basically ignoring) and am enjoying it immensely. I will play the sequel per your recommendation! Thank you for caring and giving me the update! Lynxie loves and appreciates you very much! Btw, I also wanted to kill myself during the bubble shooter game in the Mad Head game! Dream Team Elite, play whatever KimT recommends. She knows what elements in games we want and is giving us more games than BigFish! On to the game. Yes, it had gorgeous graphics and magical cut-scenes. Inventory was labeled, and there were plus items to assemble. There were 3 levels of difficulty. Loading was instantaneous between locations and there was a marked teleport map, if so customized. You collect fleur de lis symbols and morphing objects for the parables. But I simply did not enjoy this game. I wanted to but there was no journal so I felt out of the loop and the storyline didn't flow. When a new objective was added, it didn't say what it was; you had to go into the menu and tap it. The map was annoying to me. Why can't you tap on a location and just go there instead of tapping on a picture for said location? All the HO scenes were fragmented, and I hate those! I did not like a lot of the mini-games. The game was very short, even with bonus adventure. I really do not like this series anymore! Maybe I am burned out right now! Lynxie sends ❤️?? to the Dream Team Elite!
Still Wonderful

Did Blue Tea Games get bought out? I liked these games much better when they did them. They were in a completely different class. However, now that I've said that......This game is still better than most put out there. The graphics are beautiful and the puzzles are good.
Nothing special

I find the fragmented HOPs very boring and usually click randomly just to finish. While the graphics are good, the entire story was very us satisfying. Not the usually top notch Dark Parables.
Exquisite, beautiful...and boring

Oh, Dark Parables. How could you be beautiful and have all the fundamentals right in this game...and still only net 3.5 stars? Here's how. The good: while not as detailed as Blue Tea used to do, this series is still simply gorgeous. Rich colors, detailed scenes, etc. Fun minigames, HOPs that create things, and long play time. Sound overs and cut scenes all great. No glitches and quick loading time. Good to see some of the old DP characters, too. The bad: crummy storyline, too much back and forth, and just a general sense that everything has been done before...many many times before. It just didn't hold my interest, so I guess the upside of that is that it is really really a long game! ? The HOPs get a little old, and I never truly felt engaged in it. Obvious plot but you still have to follow it. Not worth purchase price unless you can just enjoy the scenes and take your time. Hope all are well. Thank you again reviewers for all the great reviews. xoxo

Great graphics, mini games and HOs. The game is pretty good, but in need of improvement.
Gorgeous to look at

. . . Which carries a lot of credit with me. Just the opening screen with the Red Riding Hood sister is incredibly beautiful. HOGS were fine with me. Unlike some other reviewers I don't mind looking for jewelry pieces, although some variety in the HO games would have added another star. Still, super eye candy, love that.
