Lost Grimoires: Stolen Kingdom by LynxMinx – Lost Grimoires: Stolen Kingdom Review

I sure did enjoy reading your review, KimTwilight! You are one of the best reviewers out there, and I am so glad that you really flesh out your thoughts and ideas, with amazing syntax, incredible vocabulary and perfect grammar. You have got to be an English professor! I always appreciate the input that you give to the DTE. You, Dracyy and Izzyoc are real gems! I just wish we could force BigFish to ensure that ERS does an update for Puppet Show! Do you know how many times I have emailed them? On to the game! I agree with everything KimTwilight said in her review. This was a good game for the price, with a lot of the accoutrements we like. You could customize settings. The graphics were beautiful. They weren't as detailed as what you would get from EIPIX or Mad Head, but they were definitely decent. The storyline was easy to follow, although there was no journal. You could tell that English was not the first language of this developer, but the grammar and syntax were understandable. Objectives were regularly updated. At each location you must find a kestrel symbol; for what purpose it is unclear. The game was not that long and didn't have a bonus adventure, but for $2.99 it was fine. Inventory was labeled but not interactive and there were no complex items to assemble. There was an excellent teleport map, marked if so customized. The game was not heavy on the HO scenes, and they did have some variation. The puzzles might have been simplistic, but sometimes it feels good to just give your brain a rest and have fun playing a game. It was enjoyable to create alchemical mixtures and then apply them and see what magical event would occur. There was a boring rotational mini-game to transmute the potions and I didn't of course like it but I did it anyway. The game ran very smoothly and there were no glitches or fatal flaws. All in all, I really enjoyed playing. My true rating is 4.5 stars. I am only deducting a half star for length. I would have loved a bonus adventure. I hope there is a sequel. Oh yes, and there were NO RATS, always a huge plus in my book, no pun intended (for those of you who don't understand, a grimoire is a book of alchemical recipes)! Lynxie sends ?❤️? to her intrepid, brilliant DTE!
