Endless Fables: Frozen Path Demo

Making a good casual adventure game is all about providing the players with an engaging story and enough challenging puzzles to make them feel like they are putting some work into the journey. It’s a lot more rewarding to see the villain brought to justice when the quest was hard and unpredictable, especially if the main character also discovers new powers along the way.

Endless Fables: Frozen Path is a hidden object adventure game that sends you on a wonderful journey involving Norse myths and a variety of supernatural mysteries that keep the action fresh and exciting. All you have to do is examine scenes for useful items and collect them in order to solve puzzles later on, but the gameplay is pretty rewarding in this regard, as well as very polished.

The story starts when your friend suddenly goes missing after starting to research a few Norse myths, and it would appear that unnatural forces have something to do with it. As it happens, there’s a man who can turn people and objects into solid ice, and who is obviously bent on destruction. Thus, your goal is to stop this man from achieving his plans and rescue your friend at the same time.

Although there are no incredible new ideas in terms of gameplay, the puzzles might surprise you every now and again, or at least put you in difficulty. Sometimes all you have to do is find the right pattern and apply it a couple of times, but there are also cases where a more critical approach is necessary. The hidden object sequences are not bad either, but don’t expect anything too grand in this regard.

In terms of graphics, Endless Fables: Frozen Path does not try to excel, but the artwork is gorgeous, and so are the landscapes you get to visit along the way. Some locations feature great weather effects, while others are full of interesting objects. The cutscenes are not particularly riveting, and neither is the voice acting, but they get the job done in terms of relaying the story.

In spite of its lack of original elements, Endless Fables: Frozen Path is still quite able to keep you interested throughout the adventure. Some of the puzzles are unique, and the great artwork helps with the atmosphere as well.
