Enchanted Kingdom: A Stranger's Venom

Fighting the bad guys is always a blast in video games, because you know the heroes always find a way to defeat them in the end. Granted, a lot of the responsibility falls upon you as the player, especially when you have to solve puzzles and win battles. Battles are not usually a part of adventure games, on the other hand, because the focus is on the puzzles.

Enchanted Kingdom: A Stranger's Venom is another episode in the hidden object adventure series Enchanted Kingdom, and it allows you to experience yet another tale of magic and evil. Not much has changed in terms of gameplay mechanics, on the other hand, which is why the fans of the franchise should be able to jump straight into the action from the first minute.

The story starts with the main character taking some time off by attending the theater, except that things go wrong once the piece starts. As it happens, one of the actors attacks someone, and things escalate pretty quickly from there. Soon enough, you are the only one who can stop the world from being destroyed by some kind of magic crystals of untold power.

Your role throughout the story is to follow the villain in his footsteps and uncover the clues that should allow you to put an end to his plans. Thus, it’s important to observe the environment and collect the items that might come in handy later on. As for the puzzles, they usually challenge you to find a specific pattern, although there are all sorts of other mini-games included as well.

Since the whole story takes place in a land where magic is not only possible but quite common, the graphics reflect that when it comes to the environments and the scenery you get to admire along the way. Almost everything is hand-drawn, and even if the cutscenes look pretty silly sometimes, they are far better than what you usually get in the genre. The same can be said about the music and the voice acting.

All things considered, Enchanted Kingdom: A Stranger's Venom should be as fun as all the previous episodes in the series, especially if you enjoyed those. Thus, there are quite a few hours of mystery waiting for you.
