  Dark Parables is one of the BEST HOP game series I have run across and by far one of the most fun. I own almost the entire collection to date and would love to continue adding to my library. Buy the bundle or when they're on sale and you will literally have HOURS of fun. Each of these games takes me roughly 6 hours. Well worth it!

  Collect it but caution ending is not what you expect. Rasputin and Kai ending? Like: responsibility seem to theme Dislike: they should added guardian story arc. Personal opinion: What happened to detective? What happened to moon priest?

  This game was better then the previous one. It wasnt super good but worth playing. Ther was one minigame breaking bug where i wasnt able to play the minigame and the chapter after the tindernox screen was annoying as hell because of the minigames. The bonus chapter was way too short and way too easy to play. But it was nice to have the souvenirs as references to the previous games. All in one this part is okay to play.Even though i say recommendable its no must have

  Ok game. But maybe too expensive. Many minigames I didnt even understand what I should do in them.

  Another good game in this series. Honestly, this series is worth getting as a whole: lovely art, increasingly excellent music, increasingly interesting puzzles (more variety than I've seen in many or most HOG / Adventure games), and a true sense of continuity despite the fractured nature of fairy tales (and these fairy tales in particular). The puzzles continue to be solid and enjoyable, which follows on from the previous game. The Detective continues to be dashing, intelligent, wise, and compassionate. The tie-in back to the Snow Queen is well done--if you can, play these games in order! Oh - the collectibles object is an apple this time and SO MUCH easier to find. Almost too easy, now that I've been trained with snowflakes (white on grey/brown/greyish brown) and acorns (honestly, a few times I just clicked a lot and hoped). Cons: The "parable piece" / morphing object is too difficult to find. It isn't fun when you can't see more than a sparkle. (On the bright side, the mechanism for finding missing collectibles or parable pieces is excellent. You probably won't miss collectibles in this game other than by inadvertence, however.) I'm not a huge fan of some of the voice acting, but I prefer a more British or European accent for English. Bottom line: 9/10 (or thereabouts - point is, it's a good game, and you'll probably get an even better deal with a discount)

  [h1]Short version: 63%[/h1] On its own, The Thief and the Tinderbox is a decent fragmented objects game with an interesting story and mediocre gameplay. However, it does not fit the series as a whole, and it never bothers to even try. [h1]Long version:[/h1] If you are here to see if this casual game would suit you, then as long as you enjoy good enough fragmented object games, it will. It is not exactly based on a parable we are dealing with the evil sorcerer Rasputin and his strange relation to fairy tale character… Still, the pacing is good, and the story has some nice ideas. If you play this game as your twelfth Dark Parables though, then I will hardly surprise you when I say that it does not fit the lore. Heck, it does not even have a single thief in it! It just does its own things without ever caring about the series. Well, at least, in the end, the story is enjoyable; I just wish the gameplay would share these characteristics. The point-and-click segments are delightfully tame, and the puzzles are okay, despite one of them appearing nearly half a dozen times. The fragmented object scenes, however, are very hit and miss. Some are almost insultingly easy, others are endless hunts for tiny hard-to-describe parts on a monochrome dark scene.

  I give it a recommend, but only if you buy it ON SALE. Overall I would call this entry in the series underwhelming and "meh."

  It's a really good story, the graphics are great, the music is pretty good. But there's a game breaking bug halfway through Chapter 6, so I can't recommend it.
