While searching for escaped convict, Mark Taylor, Miss Chambers finds herself searching for answers about her own identity. Mark Taylor is one slippery dude, because he has found a portal that allows him to travel between the real world, and the fictional worlds that are the Heart and soul of books. Why is Mark Taylor systematically entering the Tale Worlds to collect the Heart of these stories? Even more importantly, why is it that Miss Chambers is always the sheriff in tale town?
Mad Head games has done it again! They have delivered yet another fantastic cutting edge game! All of their games are top notch games, Maze, Shadowplay, Adam Wolfe, Cadenza, Beyond, Dark Realm, Dawn of Hope,and Rite of Passage, need I say more? Jump inside this otherworldly Elevator, destination.....Nevertales, as your relentless pursuit continues, always one step behind the man who is responsible for stealing the items upon which our fictional stories are based. If he's successful, he'll erase all the boundaries between our world, and the Tale worlds! In Nevertales, you'll need to strap on you special Goggles to pinpoint areas of interest, normally I find these gadgets to be rather hokey and repetitive, but this particular gadget isn't that annoying. In this Collector's Edition version, there are 9 Story based, 9 HOP based, and 9 Puzzle based Achievements to earn, 17 Morphing Objects within the Hidden Object Scenes, and 36 Hidden "Heart of the Story" signs to discover. There are also 36 Treasure item to find in the bonus section.
The Hidden Object Scenes are varied with the usual, Interactive List finds and Silhouetted Shape finds which have the Mad Head staple feature of receiving fragments to a puzzle under each item, as well as a Morphing Object available in all 17 HOP's. However, there are also some new HOP styles, or at least twists on older styles, some of which are actually quite entertaining. (I used to love HOP's back in the day when items were blended into a scene, not just heaped on top of junkpiles) One of the HOP's I rather enjoyed was searching for missing elevator items within the books and pictures surrounding the elevator. I also liked finding items encrypted on a phone, that would complete the messages.
The Mini Games are fairly decent, some very simplistic, some a wee bit more complicated. Below are brief descriptions of some of the games you'll encounter during the demo:
1) Change the symbols so they match the shape of their outline.
2) Press the elevator buttons to select the symbol fragments that will complete the symbol shown. (this game is repeated with each of the Tale Worlds you visit)
3) Move the lights so the color of the light matches the color of the ring around the bulb.
4) Rotate the inner and outer stones to create empty slots that match all of the displayed symbols and match them.
5) Search the locations until the horizontal and vertical lines intersect. (this game is repeated with each Tale World visit)
6) Select the fields on the larger circle so that only the green fields on the smaller circles are active.
NEVERTALES GAMES AVAILABLE:
Hidden Doorway (11-24-16)
Legends (9-12-15)
Shattered Images (7-19-14)
Smoke and Mirrors (11-8-14)

This one had me fooled for a while. I thought well it has the inventive games and graphics that we expect from Mad Head games but the story is ,perhaps with a twist from a couple of possibilities I see, going to be one I have played over and again.
It in the end was not that at all, but that rarest of things in the world of hidden object puzzle adventure, a creative and new story which grows out of one of the most basic stories. I will say that the team which made this is aware of the stories of P.K.Dick but beyond that just this to invite you to not just do the demo but sign on for the whole journey. I wager you won't regret it.
The only more ground breaking story I know was Adam Wolfe and that was the work of this same team.
Enjoy!

The storytelling in all of the previous Nevertales games has been nothing short of creative, but Mad Head takes that to a whole new level in this latest installment. So far the NeverTales franchise has been pretty consistent in terms of production, creativity and quality - and Forgotten Pages does not disappoint. The presentation is as impressive as I have come to expect from Mad Head Games. The artwork is colorful and high spirited, perfectly incorporated fantasy elements into each scene. The soundtracks are expertly crafted, melodic and charming; in addition, the voice overs are also extremely well done. This investigation proves to be truly bone chilling as you take on the role of Ms. Chambers who pursues escaped prisoner Mark Tailor who you suspect may be responsible for the murders. The storyline really becomes engaging when your investigation leads you to the publishing house where you discover an "elevator portal" that transports you into various worlds of literature (Taleworld). You'll have to act quick to turn back time before this dangerous villain destroys all literary works of fiction. It's up to you to save the day in this incredibly thrilling murder mystery! This latest edition in the Nevertales series is perhaps the best one ever released. Other developers should definitely take cues from Mad Head, because they clearly know how to revolutionize the HOPA genre time and time again. The locations are neatly drawn with great attention to detail and gorgeous colors, while the soundtracks are pleasant and go along well with the game. I also admire the artwork of the hidden object scenes – unlike some developers who chose to focus more on the main locations and less on the hidden object scenes, Mad Head paid the same amount of attention to both aspects, making the game’s hidden object scenes just as stunning as the main locations. Casual gamers of all levels are sure to enjoy this edition of this incredible series! Thanks Big Fish!!!The gameplay and the story are definitely worthy of five (5) stars. Cheers!

I adore Mad Head Games--no one can touch them in terms of innovation and storyline (how awesome that they don't always feature a gloomy castle!). But in the past I've found their games not quite challenging enough. You couldn't customize things to be significantly harder--turning off contextual icons, helpful text, things like that. They now have a full complement of choices, including, thank goodness, turning off the obnoxious pop-up objectives that any player worth their salt doesn't need. I can't figure out why more developers don't make that an option. Anyway, the game play is a bit linear, but definitely a lot more fun now that I can up the challenge factor. The story is interesting and the graphics are top notch. There aren't too many (if any) tired devices like endless amulet locks. I hope this developer stays around for a long time--their games are so refreshing. Definitely not the same old, same old. Show less

This is my favorite game so far this year. I enjoyed everything, even puzzles, which aren't my favorite. The HOPS were innovative and fun and I got so involved in them I almost forgot to look for the morphing objects. Thanks Mad Head for a wonderful ride.

Finished the Forgotten Pages early this morning. Wonderful special fantasy game! Special fantasy came to my mind, when I recall the different fantastic and more real worlds or world pieces, I visited via my (always vanishing) elevator. Loved it, to search for ingredients for the shapeshifting potion for the cat-witch in her little flying room as well as in a garage. Then I had to climb a small space ship and shoot the safe - another way to open such a closed casket....... There were so many extraordinary steps in my voyage, I wasn't bored a second in playing this adventure.
This combination of a neverending story, where the writer creates his worlds and what he experiences there in combination with portal journeying via elevator into traditional fantastic worlds (2 towers, 2 brothers fighting each other for good and evil) as well as realistic worlds, where a bank is robbed..... is quite unique. The Nevertales started out as pure fantasy but developed with the Hidden Doorway and now the Forgotten Pages into a new form of fantastic tale. This is a creative fantasy, which gives wings to the players' own ideas. Away from the old tales, narrated ever and ever more in the traditional fantasy games, where by now often helpers have to jump in to present the newbie in the game, the Forgotten Pages have a static point with Murray, who gives the player the ground from which he can jump into the worlds to get to the core of the stories.
As this is a game, I don't want to neglect features as HO scenes and puzzles - both creative, puzzles neither too easy nor too hard. Both very well set into the development of the story. Show less

This game was more imaginative than most of the games in this category. The storyline was unique and you play as two different characters, a woman in the main storyline, and a guy in the bonus chapter. (I don't think the bonus chapter is necessary, to be honest? It didn't add much to the story, although it was still enjoyable.)

The story builds upon itself and delivers an interesting twist, and game play is not dragged out too long. The games are challenging and not nonsensical as they often are in some of these games. Nice collectibles hidden on each screen.
Really pretty graphics and music, edited very well. Well worth playing! Show less

One of my favorite aspects of this game is that the scenes are zoomed in closer, and none are burdening. The story and game flows excellently without tedious back-tracking. The music and atmospheres are excellent. I did breeze through it, even set to 'hardcore' skill level. But that's fine, I actually prefer it that way. Well, done.
