A continuing story of Fiona and the Storm Cat saving the world from the evil Shade, who wants a winter wonderland 24/365. Game offers a lot: challenging puzzles, incredible color, beautiful animation, danger and evil vs. beauty and stunning graphics in a magical setting. The graphics and colors are so gorgeous that you just want to touch everything (and you can without penalty) to see what they are or what they do.

HOS are quite different – no crowded junk piles, no finding a list of objects which you don’t need. They are finding similar worked into an item already in the world (such as finding a number of crowns, fey characters and snowflakes on Shade’s eternal prison i.e., tomb). Flawless gameplay. The story is interesting – you don’t know where it will take you next. Extremely helpful Magic Storm Cat, who will show you where you should go or what you should do if you are stuck. The Otherworld games are near perfect and this one is no exception. Show less

I recommend this game!

I have only just used up my trial hour, and I WILL be buying this game! Even in casual mode, this game is quite challenging and fun. I was surprised by some of the mini-games being quite different, with a twist on the usual, even the HOs. The graphics are very good, and I found it a smooth play. Nice background music, too, without it being annoying (as some can be). You don't waste a lot of time ...Show more

Nice background music, too, without it being annoying (as some can be). You don't waste a lot of time with story sequences, either, and I love that you can control the speed you go through them (I'm a fast reader and tend to get annoyed with slow voiceovers). The story is a little weak, but the game play is so much fun, I don't really care! Show less

This game is amazing. Finally a hidden object game that is different than the hundreds of the HO games that are clones of each other. I should know as I have played hundred of others that are all the same. Thank you to whomever made this unique game.

I recommend this game!

This was such fun all around and I had a great time. I cannot think of much that could improve on this game other than that I could have played on and on.

This series stays true to it's initial calling and gets more polished as it progresses.

Well done, devs.

I recommend this game!

I am not so much into fantasy games, because the look is often so "girlie" with too much candy colours, and the stories are one like the other. "Spirits of Mystery: Song of the Phoenix" was an exception for me, which I liked very much and played several times. Now "Otherworld: Shades of Fall" is even better. For me it's just the right amount of pink and violet, which I can bear. The story isn't so ...Show more

I am not so much into fantasy games, because the look is often so "girlie" with too much candy colours, and the stories are one like the other. "Spirits of Mystery: Song of the Phoenix" was an exception for me, which I liked very much and played several times. Now "Otherworld: Shades of Fall" is even better. For me it's just the right amount of pink and violet, which I can bear. The story isn't so interesting. But the graphics blew me away. There is so much love in it. The nicest graphics I have ever seen in a game like this.

The gameplay blew me away too, because it's so original how you make your way. The given tasks are logical with only some back and forth in limited areas and include a lot of creative stuff I had not seen so far. Sometimes surprising with games within games, with puzzles which seem to be new (though often they are just new interpretations of old ones). HOS are of great variety, some listed items, but there's always more to it.

For me it's a very lovable game which has a cuteness which I like i.e. find bearable and great creativeness. Puzzles could have sometimes been a bit harder. There is a map but no journal, but you can change your inventory to a journal, which includes kind of photos, notes, images, clues, which - when necessary - will also appear automatically.

Since this is the first game in the series, which I have played, I am really looking forward to the first two, which some say here are even better. Show less

I recommend this game!

The standard version lasted almost 8 hours!!! Very good games, quite a variety as well. Good graphics. Music wasn't annoying as in some games. Definitely a great buy for the money considering you get some much game time.

I recommend this game!

Very interesting game. It kept my interest and the mini games were very different. Many different scenes to interact in and colors and graphics were nice. I wish I had purchased the CC of the game.
