This ain't your mama's version of Beauty and the Beast! This is a Living Legends version of a hideous beast who took control of the castle, just hours before Leo Bonnet and Beatrix Chastel were to be wed. Uninvited guests are not welcome here, but Kate and Leo have stuck together since they were children, and Kate is always welcome at cousin Leo's castle. This invitation is either a curse or a cure, because nobody has left the castle alive, with the exception of Beatrix's father, who will stop at nothing to destroy the beast that holds his daughter captive!

Uninvited Guests reminds me of the earlier games in this series, and in my opinion, 4 Friends Games has been listening to us reviewers complaining about how games are becoming cookie cutter versions,. I hope other devs will follow suit and go back to their roots, when games were epic! Each scene has a Morphing Object, and 2 hidden Owls, one that looks like a statue, the other is usually a drawing and a wee bit harder to spot. Both have a pull out tab on the left of the screen that tells you how many of each are in that location, and as you collect the owls, they become real when you visit the collections section. You are joined by a friendly squirrel helper, sort of. He doesn't really stick by your side, but he is in just about every scene, and he does get tricked into helping you occasionally, but he's certainly not an annoying helper per se.

The Hidden Object Scenes are mostly Interactive List finds, and that's alright by me, I kind of like old school in the HOP department. There are also Multiples of the same item finds, and Keyword in Sentences finds. I really enjoyed a couple of unusual one's where you had to find several predator's from different levels such as an eagle or hawk for the sky category, and I liked one where you had to find sketches of things that were alive. The graphics are clear and the objects for the most part are recognizable.

The Mini Games tend to be on the easy side of the scale, but I don't mind how easy or hard a puzzle is, as long as it's fun to solve. Below are brief descriptions of some of the games you'll encounter during the demo:

1) Restore each animal's face by swapping pie shaped sections.

2) Find matching roses by choosing 2 roses to reveal at a time.

3) Assemble the portraits by swapping the pieces between 2 portraits. Pieces must be of the same orientation.

4) Click on puzzle sections until the correct image fragment appears.

5) Aim the crossbow and shoot when the scope turns green. (this is never a fun puzzle, the target is just standing still, where's the skill in this type of game?)

6) Engage in a Battle Royale by clicking on 3 or more identical tiles to remove them. The goal is to strategically remove all tiles, matches can be made horizontally, vertically, diagonally, or all of those directions, removing tiles will cause the tiles above the match to fall down. Repeat this game 3 increasingly difficult times.

7) Arrange the animals on the board so that no animal type repeat either horizontally or vertically.

I've been waiting ages for a game to get lost in and this one definitely delivers. I've been pretty critical of the cookie cutter games that have been thrown at us this past year (half of my reviews weren't even posted) but I can honestly say with confidence that this is a pretty sweet game and again, if you liked Wicked Harvest, you will really enjoy this one.
Peace! Show less

In another spin on the Beauty and the Beast theme comes Living Legends 6: Uninvited Guest. I am very fond of the Living Legends series and found the last game just as excellent as the first. This newest offering so far holds up to that same standard. Also I am an incurable romantic at heart and so I love this particular game.

You play the game as Kate who hasn’t seen your cousin Leo since childhood. You have received an invitation to his wedding and it presents a wonderful chance to renew your childhood friendship so you undertake the journey to his castle. Of course being a HOPA game your trip is beset by little things that inevitably make you late, which in this case is good. As you arrive for the wedding the gate to the castle is blocked and you find out that something horrible has befallen the castle and now you must use your wits to save your cousin Leo.

I find only one technical issue in the game and it is something that also occurred in another game by this same developer – Immortal Love the Price of a Miracle. There is a quick, bright flash that seems to occur when there is a transition within the same scene such as entering the tent in this one. I only mention it because it is a bit annoying. That being said, the graphics are gorgeous as they create a fantasy world. Although the castle has been besieged and is damaged at least the scenes are not dreary brown and black. The artists have still used a great deal of color in creating Leo’s castle.

Your tools include an interactive map that allows quick travel between scenes and locations. You also have a Magic Mirror but of course some might think of it as a gimmick because you will periodically need to find Soul Stones to feed it to receive its help. The game has 5 chapters plus the bonus chapter and I am finding each chapter longer than normal. There is a lot to do and a lot of things to discover. Of course looking for those collectibles and morphs are keeping me busy and slowing me down a bit.

The HOPS are nothing new but I still like them because most are the list type that to this day remains my favorite type of HOPS. The scenes in this game are very lovely with some touches of creativity and a bit of interaction. Thankfully, they are not all so interactive that I want to rip my eyelashes off.

The puzzles are not difficult and I am enjoying each one that I come across. Sometimes having puzzles that don’t fry my brain is a good thing. There are times when I really enjoy the challenge of some more difficult puzzles but the nature of this game seems more fitting for easier puzzles. As is always the case, I have no doubt that there will be one or two more difficult puzzles later in the game but for now I am happy. Not everyone likes easy or slightly challenging puzzles but many gamers who dislike puzzles will most likely enjoy this game.

The CE version of the game includes all of the extras I would want in a CE with 68 collectible owls and 34 morphing objects to find. Some of the collectibles are easy to spot but others are well-concealed and it takes a bit of hunting to find them. For those of you who are interested there are achievements to earn as well. The other extras include the standards such as Wallpapers, Concept Art, Screen Savers, Movies, Music a Bonus Chapter and the Strategy Guide. This developer has also included the ability to replay Mini-games and HOPS, which is something that not all developers include so, IMHO, this is a great CE package.

Living Legends 6 Uninvited Guest is a beautiful game and I have been enjoying each moment that I have played. I highly recommend this game if you want an excellent fantasy/romantic type game to play. There have been some times where I didn’t know what to do but that was because I wasn’t looking everywhere and even checking back into my inventory. So if you decide this game is for you don’t leave any stone unturned or book unopened as the case may be. As always, I recommend that you try the demo to see if this will be a game you enjoy. Happy gaming!! Show less

I recommend this game!

I've been patiently waiting for a game with everything that I look for in a game (been replaying a lot of older games to get my kicks!) Dark evil games really turn me off and personally I've been on strike from CE games that just bring me down. Not this game. Graphics are very important to me, along with atmosphere with something other than creepy things!
I look forward to playing and if I find out this game takes a turn for the very dark side, I'll be back to edit my review. Show less

I like how it's sticking to the story, you know what you are supposed to do and why. I like how the gameplay is pretty straightforward and things are not so hidden or in some absolutely ridiculous place, you'd never think to look. You use the items you find pretty quickly too which is great since I hate wandering around with a full inventory!
Hidden object scenes are very lovely to look at and interactive. The mini-games that I found in the demo were pretty easy, I managed to do them so they couldn't be too hard. lol
I was really enjoying the game when the demo ended so I will definitely be buying this game on the next big CE sale! Show less

I am so excited about this game that I couldn't wait until I completed it to review it. I will definitely be buying it.

I will not comment on plot as others have done this but I did find it to be enough of a departure from the norm that it interested me. This has so much to offer including the CE bling for those who want it, plus gorgeous graphics, nice music and pleasant voice overs. True the HOs are the list type and perhaps not all that interesting but there are other things which support this game to make it better than the fare we have been served lately. It flows seamlessly, doesn't give you a headache trying to figure out puzzles and is just an all around pleasurable experience.

I am sure there are many who will not think it deserves 5 stars but I do, simply because I am enjoying a game that is not so challenging as to be drudgery. The story may be somewhat ominous but the game is light-hearted without the gloomy evil villain trying to take over the world.

As usual take it for a test drive first, kick the tires and see if its a buy for you. Show less

I recommend this game!

And that is said with approval - (based on demo only) -Living Legends does it again- I own all these games and was so excited to see a new release from them - one that feels a bit different and is more unique in gameplay than some of what we've gotten lately... The graphics are gorgeous, romantic, and would appeal to art lovers. Every scene is beautiful, even the pop ups, resplendent of what a fantasy game should look and feel like - yet doesn't detract from the darkness of theme (there is some blood, violence, and murder in game). The music is their usual soundtrack for this series, but I love the mood it gives off and smile when I hear it - knowing I am playing another Living Legends game.

The mini-games aren't too intense and give an enjoyable challenge, the HOS's are as beautifully drawn as the rest of the game and fun to play. In each regular scene are two collectible owls (sometimes transparent and blended well into background) and one morphing object that isn't fast to change and is often small, so that gives it more challenge. Love having both collectibles and morphing objects that are a challenge to find in every scene! As for the story, (as important to me as gameplay) - I was sucked in - it's a dark twist on Beauty and the Beast, complete with the beastly lord of the castle and inanimate objects that come to life because of a curse. I guessed the cliffhanger twist long before demo's end - and I love their take on it! Can't wait to buy and play and see how this story progresses.

You get a helper - sort of. A cute and mischievous squirrel who scampers about in every scene (so far) but isn't part of your inventory or tool bar - and you'll use the furry critter as needed. Same with a rather ferocious animated winged lion candlestick that you receive in a unique way and carry for a short time (I actually didn't want to let him go - ha!) It's a fantasy game, and all of that interaction fit well for theme - adding to the enchanted atmosphere...

If you enjoy fantasy and fairy tales games that aren't saturated with ten kinds of evil every turn, then this is for you - give the demo a whirl. I think you'll be glad you did... Show less

I recommend this game!
