Endless Fables: Love the Greek Myths! – Endless Fables: The Minotaur's Curse - Hidden Review

3.5 stars bumped up to 4 stars Sunward Game originally released through Artifex Mundi but the iOS version released via Big Fish games. Really short demo but it was a buy for me. Interesting take on the story of the Minotaur (although secretly I feel a little sorry for him), and of Ariadne. Game play is smooth, customizable mode of play, collectible bugs (butterflies, dragonflies etc.) and morphing water lilies, but not in every scene. The HOGs are not the usual run-of-the-mill find the items on the list; they are far more interactive and interesting. I found the games a bit frustrating in terms of clarity of direction and must admit that I skipped a few. One cute mouse near the beginning of the game, and a dive-bombing crow to watch for! Lynxie - do you have an iPad Air 1st gen, or iPad Air 2? Not meaning to harp on this, but I do really want to figure out why some people have problems with games, while others don't. There's a pretty big difference in performance between 1st and 2nd gen iPad Airs - the Air 2 processor is supposed to be 40% faster and almost twice as fast graphics processing than the 1st Air. The Air 2 also has 2G of RAM while the Air has 1G of RAM so this would definitely make apps run better on the 2. But if you have the iPad Air 2, I'm all out of ideas! :) Upcoming Games from Big Fish Games: (# stars is average review on BigFishGames.com for the PC or Mac version, date is the day the game was first released on any platform - usually PC or Mac) Enigmatis: Shadow of Karkhala (4.2 stars, Artifex Mundi, Jul. '16) Mystery Tales: Eye of Fire (3.4 stars, Domini Games, Sept. '16)
