Spirits of Mystery: Chains of Promise Collector's Edition

Well, what a disappointment this game was after the really good Silver Arrow game. Extremely short at 4.5 hrs for both main story and bonus chapter and released in 2015! This game totally missed the charm and delight of the previous game. It was quite the opposite with very dark overtones and gargoyles littering the game. One HO had you clicking spiders and a mini game involved snakes...so not for the squeamish! It had a real occult feeling to it which I personally don't like. Once again you play the role of a princess, but who you are or what your kingdom is, was not mentioned. You are invited to a dear friend's wedding in another kingdom and she is being forced into the marriage. It appears your old foe, the sorcerer Isa, is back to his old tricks manipulating matters to his own advantage. The rest of the story is about the methods you try to use to extricate your friend from the marriage and the consequences of your actions. The story was very thin, and at time, very confusing. There weren't many characters and they were pretty bland and wooden. As another reviewer mentioned, the game felt very rushed and I saw a missed opportunity for a subplot to be played out. HO sce…

The last of the games of this series available on Steam (as of 2020/11). Worth playing, but not as engaging as the first four. The art is still lovely, although the scenes are all night / underground to suit the setting. The game is uneven - some aspects are well done, while others fall short (see below). I feel as though there could have been more to the story, and I'm sorry to be done the series. Pros: - customizable difficulty settings - interactive map - variety of HO scenes - variety of puzzles - attractive artwork (though it does feel very dark compared to other entries in the series!) - bonus chapter Cons: - story is difficult to follow and doesn't feel connected to the other games in the series - story feels unfinished or rushed - the Elven princess has wooden, mechanical voice acting, and doesn't fully understand what she's reading - the puzzles/ games aren't as good as in previous entries; some allow a choice between hard/ casual, but others vary a great deal between too easy and frustrating - the in-game achievements are very basic (the prior games either didn't have them, or provided a special room) - the collectibles (stamps/ seals) aren't very interesting and mo…

You play as a princess (surprise!) who journeys to the neighboring Black Unicorn Kingdom to your best friend’s wedding… one she does not wish to happen! Seems that Isa character is still about… Also, your friend’s father made a promise with said Isa to heal his daughter… and the wedding is the repayment. You need to figure out the dark plots afoot and rescue your friend. Plot is fun, HO scenes intriguing, and the minigames challenging. Recommend purchase in the bundle.

Not a terrible game, but very short and not anything special. Get it on a discount.

The game was interesting as well as the story which connected nicely to the bonus game although the bonus game had the most abrupt ending ever made. The Interface was great and the artwork was very good. The voice acting was ok with the exception of Lillian the elf, who seems to be voiced by a satellite navigation unit. The game was short, so don't pick this up unless it's on sale.

I would love to buy all of the one I don't have in a bundle BUT the last one I bought spirits mystery Amber maiden collection edition is not working at all!! if they pay me back the money I spent I'll come and try to get them all here for 16.36€
