This is a beautiful remaster of one of my favorite older games, a Goldilocks tale with a twist. After her untimely death her son uncovers the truth about his family and influences of dark forces and magic at hand. I love the story and playing the dual roles of human and bear made it more fun.

Goldilock's son and her spirit set out to defeat the villain who is bent on destroying his father and his kingdom. The battle is on, creating an engaging story that was entertaining to the end. Aside from the story it is done with the special additional touches that Friendly Fox is famous for. Though the original was outstanding this version is even more so. Some may think it's no big deal but I feel the enhancements have really made a difference.

The scenes are busy and interesting, the locations are beautiful, the characters are rendered extremely well. The visuals play such an important part of any game, for me, and they are top quality here. The graphics are sharper and color quality has improved, there are more HOPs and puzzles and the sound is much better. If you decide on the CE you will be thrilled with the extra content. Friendly Fox doesn't scrimp on the collectibles. If your budget allows, I think the CE is the way to go.

We don't get HOPAs like this anymore. I'm so fed up with stupidly easy games that all look and play the same. This one from the golden days of HOPAs outshines any that we have today. The remaster has enhanced the experience. Show less

I recommend this game!

I have only done the trial however, I love the story line and the challenge. I am on expert level and it does challenge you. It is fun and the graphics are great. The narration and sound is good also.

I recommend this game!

Friendly Fox is the only developer to realize that HOPA fans can't "bear" playing the games offered lately. They have become repetitive and ridiculously easy, you can't tell the difference from one series to the next, that's how bad it has gotten lately! I'd rather replay an older game that has been remastered, than any game offered in any of the newer series...because this game has Backbone! The developers have done an amazing job with the Remaster, it takes me back to the days when almost every HOPA was a gem, it takes me back to a time when we used to look forward to new releases!

Collectibles/Morphing Objects: (CE version only)
There are 76 Opaque Sprites (2 per scene) which unlocks 5 Sprites in the Extra's Menu (5-14-30-55-76)
There are 34 Morphing Runes and a pull-out tab on the left side to keep track of the collectibles available or found.

Gadget/Helper:
There is no helper but there is a gadgety Book that progresses the story via a Hidden Object Puzzle. Each chapter requires finding & placing an emblem to unlock the next series of HO & story progression.

Hidden Object Scenes:
There are 31 Hidden Object Scenes in the main game +8 in the CE Bonus Chapter, including the Book HO's and several smaller zoom zone HOs. Most of the HOs are Interactive List Finds, but they also have Progressive-Interactive Silhouetted Shape Finds, Find & Replace, and Interactive Silhouetted Shape Finds. Several; of the scenes are repeated but it is always with a different HO variation.

Mini-Games:
There are 31 Mini-Games +12 in the CE Bonus Chapter. Obviously, they are not new puzzles, but most of them are very enjoyable, many of which haven't been offered in quite some time!

Bonus Chapter: (CE version only)
Play as Goldilock's son trying to stop the alchemist in a prequel. The BC spans 12 additional scene locations with 12 mini-games and 10 Hidden Object Scenes. You will complete your Opaque Sprite Collection but there are no Morphing Objects (remaining :(

Collector's Edition Version Extra's:
7 Wallpapers, 12 Concept Art Pictures, 5 Screensavers, 5 Music Soundtracks, 30 Movie Video Cutscenes, 29 Achievements, 15 Replayable Hidden Object Scenes, 18 Replayable Mini-Games, 76 Opaque Sprites that unlock 5 Sprites, 34 Morphing Objects, 4 Main Chapters +Bonus Chapter and a Built-In Strategy Guide.

There's always something interesting going on at my new forum! If you miss chatting with fellow fishies from the Big Fish Forum days then grab a thermos full of coffee, throw on your favorite jeans & t-shirt, and lace up your hiking boots...ah who are we kidding...just keep your comfy fuzzy slippers on, and come chillax with us by the fire at thewoodsforum.boards.net Show less

I missed Wrath of the Beast the first time around, which is strange because I own all the other Living Legends games in the series. So I was thrilled to see this remastered version, which I promptly purchased. Let me say, it does not fail to entertain.

I missed Wrath of the Beast the first time around, which is strange because I own all the other Living Legends games in the series. So I was thrilled to see this remastered version, which I promptly purchased. Let me say, it does not fail to entertain.

It's based loosely on an adult Goldilocks and her involvement with Bear Town. The graphics, the voiceovers and the storyline totally sucked me in and I didn't want to stop playing and go to bed LOL.

So, I highly recommend this game. The only reason it gets 4 instead of 5 stars is because one of the main characters is from King Arthur & Merlin. I hate when game developers steal characters from other stories and try to make them their own. But this game is so good that I had to overlook the "theft". Show less

I recommend this game!

As with the other Living Legends, the storyline is quite nice. They would do well to add a bit more at the beginning to get everyone on the same page, but that's just my preference. As far as the game play is concerned, well, this is pretty boring. Having to switch between a bear and a person was just something to do and didn't add much to the overall game.

As with the other Living Legends, the storyline is quite nice. They would do well to add a bit more at the beginning to get everyone on the same page, but that's just my preference. As far as the game play is concerned, well, this is pretty boring. Having to switch between a bear and a person was just something to do and didn't add much to the overall game. There are some HOPs that are not at all challenging with every object out in plain sight or in an obvious "hidden" location. The "puzzles" are good if you are not up for a challenge, but for those of us that do want a challenge, even the "hard" is easy. The only puzzle that had any challenge was the board requiring the sprite, rose, apple, and fire to be placed on certain squares. Other than that.....Since I play these games for more than just a cute story, I can't give this a very high rating. :-( Show less

I recommend this game!
