More Challenging Than The Other Three Games In The Series

fromThis is not a game for those new to Time Management games, unless you play in relaxed mode.

I love the graphics this Time Management game offers, and each level has really good layouts with plenty of areas to interact with. However, I do have a few complaints, the biggest drawback for me, is that it takes several attempts to earn all 3 stars, because if you don't choose the right tasks at the right times, you end up not being able to progress any further, but I guess that's where the ...Show more

I love the graphics this Time Management game offers, and each level has really good layouts with plenty of areas to interact with. However, I do have a few complaints, the biggest drawback for me, is that it takes several attempts to earn all 3 stars, because if you don't choose the right tasks at the right times, you end up not being able to progress any further, but I guess that's where the challenge comes into play. This isn't an easy breezy game (unless you are playing in Relaxed mode which is untimed) and I will admit that I had to restart several levels to "get it right" by slightly altering the order in which I queued my tasks, otherwise I had to waste time waiting for the necessary resources to be available because I used them on a different task that had more benefits. You can earn up to 3 stars in each level, and you will have to use strategy to earn all three stars.

In this fourth edition of Elven Legends' Queen Aerin and the majestic griffin were relaxing and enjoying the beautiful uneventful day when a stranger popped through the elven portal. The stranger has asked for the Queen's help saving his world, and naturally, the Queen has obliged. In the Collector's Edition version, each level has a Morphing little thief, and there are several Potion Bottles to find as well throughout your adventure, but in my opinion, the extras offered aren't enough given the price difference. There are the normal resources to collect, food, wood, stone etc. and the same tasks of clearing the roads, repairing bridges and filling in pits along the way. Queen Aerin will do all the magic work, once she has enough magical crystals to charge her staff.

There are several Altars of Resources available in each level that will produce resources over a period of time and each level has a Bonus meter that recharges to give you temporary boosts such as faster workers, more resources, or extra workers. You will need to construct different buildings to help you achieve your goals such as Farms, Workers House's and Magic Wells.

The Collector's Edition has 8 Wallpapers, 8 Concept Art pictures, 50 Collectible Potion Bottles, Morphing Little Thieves, 9 Alchemy Encyclopedia pages, a built in Strategy Guide, 50 Levels & 10 Bonus Levels, 38 Achievements, High Scores and a Bonus Chapter, enjoy! Show less

I recommend this game!

I've kind of got hooked on this type of time management, dislike the the assembly line, wait on customer ones. i was hoping that this would be a real fun game to play as the last 2 i bought kept crashing and i really liked them. This is not a great substitute, but it does entertain me for awhile, so i did purchase with a game credit as it will do when i'm having a sleepless night.

I recommend this game!

Ugh. I could not even get past the trial. I loved the first 3 games, but this one is just annoying. In no particular order:

Characters keep screaming snarky/whiny/threatening phrases. They are not audible, but they are distracting and not even remotely humorous.
Game interface seems clunky. I have difficulty using a touch screen with this and sometimes even the mouse doesn't want to work. I ...Show more

Ugh. I could not even get past the trial. I loved the first 3 games, but this one is just annoying. In no particular order:

Characters keep screaming snarky/whiny/threatening phrases. They are not audible, but they are distracting and not even remotely humorous.
Game interface seems clunky. I have difficulty using a touch screen with this and sometimes even the mouse doesn't want to work. I had to play level 3 five times to get everything to work.
Tasks are not very specific and it's frustrating trying to figure out what it is I'm missing or need to do. Again it took 3-5 tries on some levels to work everything out. This is not my first time at this rodeo, but these horses are elephants!
Story line is not interesting and rather disjointed. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

I don't know what it is but I found the game play to be cumbersome and not very 'clean'. It just seems like a step back quality- and game-play-wise from many of the other games in this genre. I played about 20 minutes and was just so bored I had to stop and write this review. I normally love these games - even if they aren't great I can usually enjoy them enough to play the hour trial but I ...Show more
