Another brilliant game from Mad Head! – Nevertales: Legends - A Hidden Object Adventure (Full) Review

This is one of the best HOAP games I've played in a while, and I was impressed with nearly every aspect. The storyline was a fairytale fantasy that actually made sense and brought the characters to life. As the queen who seeks to rescue her king and kingdom from a treacherous villain, you must collect several artifacts, each with a powerful magical ability. Determining when you need to use a particular artifact then watching the consequences tremendously enhances gameplay. The graphics and cut scenes are state of the art, and the soundtrack was gorgeous. There weren't too many HOPs (which made me happy), and the HOPs that appeared were complex and creative. The minigames were innovative and the high quality you would expect from Mad Head. The map enables teleportation and shows you where there are active tasks; the two clicks necessary to access the map were just a minor irritant. I'm not sure why other reviewers said there wasn't a journal. There is one, although it only covers your current activity. There is an outstanding, lengthy bonus chapter that serves as a very satisfactory sequel to the main game. There are many, many other extras that I won't spoil by describing here – but make sure you find all the collectibles during the main game so you can enjoy them all! Strongly recommend!
