    I haven't done some of my Ape-ril drawings since it's already over and the month of May is here. So I did a pic for Thymilph, a fanart of Maki the hunky gorilla from the game The Forest Legends. Hope you like it!

    Short version: 70% Forest Legends is a rather long casual adventure game about two star-crossed lovers from different worlds. Its breath-taking graphics go well with the format and the fantasy setting, but those who expected it to be a hidden object game will be disappointed. Long version: Forest Legends: The Call of Love is a casual point ‘n’ click set in an average magical kingdom with a standard plot premise: our heroine, Eveline, is desperately trying to save her kidnapped love, who is…

    This game is now added to my favorites, harping back to games like the Blue Tea series Dark Parables with the beautiful details throughout the game and lovely graphics, this game reminds me how much can be done with these type of games when developers really think to add lots of unique touches to make it more engaging. This is not a HOG game as there are no Hidden Object scenes but it does have the same kind of design to it with some simple mini games sprinkled throughout but if you enjoy…

    NOTE: This is NOT A HOG, even though it has the tag and looks like one. There no hidden object scenes to speak of, only point & click and puzzle elements. In a nutshell: One of my favorite puzzle adventures to date. Long, good variety of minigames and puzzles, beautiful art, lots of bonus stuff (music, wallpapers, etc), and some of the best VOs I've ever come across in the genre. It's not a HOG, though a couple of optional goals (like finding pages of notes) add a bit of a 'hunt for stuff'…

    First things first... A list of cons. - The character graphics in the game are very amateurish. - The gameplay controls are less than adequate. It does feel like an old game. - It has no achievements. - The story is confusing at best, and at worst it just stinks. The exposition is horribly obvious, none of the dialogue sounds 'realistic', and all of the tropes are there. - So many things made me feel like the game was rushed... For instance, in the bonus chapter, the same dragon from the…

    This game is rather... Laggy... Mind you, I have a decent PC... But this game just has a delay on multiple actions. There are also some bugs... Like the game crashes on the Snake mirror puzzle. No matter what you do... IT WILL CRASH! So do yourself a favor and SKIP IT... Or you can no longer play the game! There are also NO H.O. scenes. At all... So you find stuff and use 'em... That's all.

    Note that this is a casual point-and-click adventure: there are no hidden-object scenes. There are, however, several very easy puzzle mini-games. This game is an impressive "achievement" in that it incorporates almost all the the clichés of the genre: pretty girly girl saving her sexy boyfriend, cute little sidekick that does almost nothing, and an incoherent mishmash of well-known fairy and magic stories. This was probably the easiest job the writers ever had! That said, the complete package…

    I liked the few references to other people's work such as painting the roses in red or the chicken with an axe beak. The puzzles where quite easy and there is no HOG scene (so be aware, it's an HOG game without HOG scene. Don't ask me, why, I'm not one of the dev). The story doesn't break three legs to a duck, but the side story is absolutely dumb.

    Thumbs down. There is a bug in the mirror puzzle which causes the game to crash. The developers have not fixed the bug, and they are not likely to. The mirror puzzle can be skipped, but I didn’t really like the story either. The artwork is mostly okay, but the voice overs don’t look right because characters move their bodies when speaking, but not their mouths. This game is tagged as hidden object, but I would not consider this to be a hidden object game. It’s a point and click adventure.…

Pros: -Lovely artwork and traditional fairy tale type setting -Music (never overwhelms the game, and fits the various settings) -Puzzles (mostly easy, but some take a bit of thought) -Characters / protagonist (not especially deep characters, although the father is surprisingly complex, though a minor player; but the key characters are likeable, and the protagonist is…

    I was really enjoying the game until the bug that made it crash. I'm used to that kind of bug in HO games, usually it's not a huge deal, except in this one... it didn't save. So I'd have to start all over. Until that's fixed, not recommended.

    One critical bug that requires a mini-game to be skipped. Story is good and for once, the bonus content is actually as good, if not better, than the main story. Funnily, no hidden object puzzles in this one. I liked it.

    In Forest Legends: The Call of Love you play the human Eveline as she sets out to rescue her captured lover...who is a giant cat man who sounds like Puss in Boots from Shrek. Loved the story and world building in this game. However, towards the end the story gets extremely rushed and the way the ending was done felt a little unsatisfying to me. Despite this I really enjoyed Forest Legends and would recommend it to fans of point and click puzzle games.

    It's not a bad game! A little dated, and it's more of a point-and-click adventure vs a true HOG. The hint system is the best I've seen in a HOG. Typically you need to use hint multiple times to get a clear answer, this one gives you a multi-part hint in one shot (e.g. go backward 3 spots and use this item here). Some of the artwork is pretty nice, no lags while playing. Definitely worth it if you're looking for some relaxing fun. Please note: In the main game I did find a bug that…

    Full disclosure: I paid a $1.37 USD for this on sale. And for that price I got quite the adventure. You play as a star-crossed lover accompanied by her wee dragon. Can you solve all the puzzles and find your true love? My only complaint is that this isn't a HOG. It's a fetch quest with a lot of mini games mixed in. And a lot of potion making. But overall, it's really well done. Recommended!

    A very nice casual adventure! I loved the mythology and scenery, though I would have liked to see some traditional hidden object scenes. There is also a puzzle that constantly crashes (and cannot be completed) near the end of the game, but thankfully you can use the "skip" function to bypass it.

    Not a hidden object game. Incredibly dull. Most of the puzzles are slide or rotation based - not difficult, just tediously boring. The voice acting is poor. There are buggy display elements causing text to disappear of screen.

    Enjoyable enough game, though its obviously very dated in mechanics/graphics. However, I would not recommend, as 3/4 of the way through it glitched out during one of the mini-puzzles and will not let me continue. Can't skip it and can't advance the game without it. I got the gist, but it would've been preferable to complete this. Maybe I will revisit it to see if I can get all the way through in the future. Had a similar problem with another game by the same producer, so IDK if its a game…

    The story is pretty good for an older HOG, but it crashes so often that only through my own stubbornness was I able to complete the main story. After it crashed twice in the first 10 minutes of the bonus, I finally just gave up on the game and didn't finish the bonus section.

    Pretty decent for what it is. The graphics are lovely, although quite noticeably old in the cutscenes. The puzzles are varied in both type and difficulty. Also, even though this game looks like a typical HOG, there are no hidden object scenes. I was impressed by this game's attention to detail particularly in the beginning, although it does feel rushed later on. All the journal articles are voiced, which I don't think I've ever seen in this genre before. You can also find extra…

    I likes this fairy tale hidden object adventure game. I can't say it was the most COMPELLING story, but I did enjoy that it was a guy in distress instead of a damsel. You go through a big massive odyssey to save your catboifriend. The art was great, the journey she went on was great. The lore of the world was actually surprisingly deep for a game of this type.

    Skip this one. It's quite old, so some of the quality-of-life is missing. (At least it has a map!) There are no hidden object scenes, just a lot of finding things to unlock other things on other screens. There's a bug with a very late puzzle that hard crashes the main game, forcing a skip. There's no achievements or cards. There's an extra story / game, but that's pretty much it.

Make sure you play the bonus game because it brings you full circle to the beginning. You travel by foot, by boat, and go underwater.

    This is a routine mobile ported hidden object casual puzzle/adventure game with a forest/magic/fairy theme. Solving various puzzles and hidden object minigames progresses the plot and unravels the mystery. As with most mobile ported HOGs, there's a simplistic interface, locked/unchangeable screen resolution, next to no customisability, and somewhat low resolution graphical assets. All of this puts this game below minimum standards for a contemporary PC game. You can play these kinds of…

First of all, this was really more of a point-and-click rather than a Hidden Object game. Some lovely art, some not-so-lovely art and the story line has a few plot holes and untied ends. Like, what is up with the boyfriend? We rescue him, but it's never explained why he was captured. Secondly, the ending was also very, very abrupt for both the main game and the…

    Not a hidden object game at all, just a point and click adventure. Crashes at a certain minigame and the only way to get past it is to skip the game, so don't think you can finish the game with zero skips. I bought the game back in June and only got around to playing it this last couple weeks, so unable to get a refund, but at least I only spent $4 (although not worth it).
