The Not So "Grim" News: I'm "Destined" To Love This Series! – Grim Tales: Threads of Destiny - A Hidden Object Mystery (Full) Review

As I always let you reviewers know, some great new games came out in the last two days from our favorite developers. 1. As I stated in my last review (Spirit Mystery- original review came out on May 16 and mysteriously disappeared), Alawar released a game entitled, "World Keepers: Last Resort" at the price of $2.99. Check out my review, which is already out. You might want to purchase the outright version to avoid the onslaught of ads in the free version before unlock. Fun game! 2. Artifex Mundi just released their new one entitled, "Tibetan Quest: Beyond the World's End". It is currently on sale for $2.99; and after this week, it will increase in price. It has a nice Asian theme for a different vibe, as well as many good features. Check out those games asap! Have fun! Updated from above May 19 review: We return to the Gray family, and you play Auntie Gray who has the ability to time travel back to the past to change another's destiny. You are informed that the remains of your niece's parents have been discovered after they went missing twenty years ago. All evidence leads to a serial killer, Greg Duffy - otherwise known as the Roadside Killer; and you set out to save them. The graphics are a disappointment; unlike previous installments, I found them to be on the muddy side and not sharp or crisp. You can customize your settings, and the inventory is labeled and interactive. The teleport map indicates your objectives; and here you can view your diary, collectibles, and achievements. The diary records nice story progression, which is becoming more rare these days. You have a task pad that regularly updates. The HOS are quite innovative and varied; you have word lists with interaction and silhouettes. Another type is a scene that takes place in the sheriff's office using relative items. You play a tape recorder while listening to narration as you find items in accordance with highlighted spoken words. The puzzles are varied; one type is to move a plane through a board creating a path in a given number of moves while avoiding obstacles. You collect well-hidden morphing objects in the locations, as well as some cameos of the characters within the family. A secret room is among the extras. I deducted a star because the graphics were less than par, and the game might be short. However, I love the story along with the other strong components. I recommend it!
