This was frustrating as I wasted a few of my hints on things I already knew I was supposed to do. However, it instead would tell the player to put the red strings into the puzzle location as a hint. For example, if you need three red strings and six blue strings, and you had already collected the three red strings, you would think the game would give you a hint for the blue strings’ locations. That being said, the hint system was a little bit wonky.
Our cute fishy friend! Look at the loving detail and charming art style. I’m not sure what the fix for this would be and it was a rather small issue thanks to the generous hint system. While some might find this a positive as it adds to the difficulty of the puzzles, it seemed to add difficulty for the sake of adding difficulty rather than by actually making the seek part of the game more intense. These are integrated so well into the surrounding area that there is no way, short of clicking all over the place or asking the game for a hint, to know exactly what is a hidden scene and what is not. Why is this so hard to do? Hidden little NooksĪnother small issue I had with A Tale for Anna was that there are hidden little nooks and crannies that players can click on around the scene that allows Anna to peak into. It’s a little bit silly as the runes aren’t really a puzzle or inherently difficult it’s just supposed to be a fun little added feature. Tracing this rune is a surprisingly delicate operation stray outside the lines even a pixel and it will force the player to start over. For example, when Anna casts a spell, players have to trace a ruin in the air with their mouse. I really like this game, but there are a few minor adjustments that would make this game a lot more special. This makes the game a little challenging and much more fun than the games that make the hidden objects too easy to find. Unlike some hidden object titles, players won’t be able to automatically tell which objects are needed and which are part of the scenery. The hidden objects are actually integrated into the scenes players don’t have to click to a special scene on the map in order to find objects. What a beautiful landscape to find little hidden treasures in. The characters don’t have big personalities, but the landscape and the puzzles certainly do. While the story is simple and straightforward, it feels like a Grimms-style fairytale. This game is bright, cheerful, colorful, and fun.
If you like hidden object-style puzzle games, you will like A Tale for Anna. It’s a great system as it gives the players a little time to figure it out, then they can start collecting leaves if they haven’t puzzled through what to do next. More appear as time goes on, and once players gather six of them, they can get a magical hint to show them what to do next. There is a very good hint system in A Tale for Anna players collect little glowing blue leaves hidden all over the locations. Some of these mini-games were challenging! Once some items are collected, Anna will need to complete a mini-game puzzle to move on to the next area. Anna cannot collect items until they are needed, even if they are obviously items she will need in the future, like puzzle pieces. The gameplay is similar to many games in this genre players need to point and click their way around the screen to collect needed items. Using her newfound powers, Anna has to collect items along her journey to help her to find her mother, her cat friend, and herself along the road to defeating the evil wizard. It turns out that Anna’s long-lost family has been captured by this wizard and only Anna can set it right. One day, her hidden magical powers awaken, catching the attention of an evil wizard that wants to drain the world of all magic. It features a young girl who was raised by her talking cat. The story for A Tale for Anna was based on a story that one of the developers wrote for their daughter, Anna. This game is an extremely colorful title with a lot of charm baked into it.
