Great TM game, but this time, I highly recommend the Collector's Edition version over this Standard Edition version for two reasons. This game requires a lot of strategies, nearly from the get-go, so the Royal Strategy Guide is very helpful, especially in the later levels. (50 levels~SE, 60 Levels~CE) The second reason is my personal love of the Collector's Edition Morphing Faun Statuettes, Collectible Books, and the Collectible Baby Golems. The CE version has a ton of extra's that this version doesn't have (see the last paragraph) and, in my opinion, it makes the game more fun to play.

Well, that was quick! Didn't King Galanius just pass over his crown when the Royal Wedding Bells rang Ding-Dong for Princess Aerin, and Tillian, who shortly thereafter became the proud parents of a bouncing Royal Baby Girl in the last Elven Legends game? Now, in the blink of an eye, the Royal Princess is all grown-up, with magic powers of her very own, and making Royal Decisions on her journey home from Grandpa's house!

I must admit, one of the reasons I have always loved this TM series is because, over the last 6 games, I followed the story of a young Elven Princess as she discovered her magical abilities and learned how to serve her Kingdom's people. Aerin met the man of her dreams (well, it was more like he just popped into her life all of a sudden) Together they worked as an inseparable team side by side, decided to get married and her proud father, King Galanius handed down the crown. That took place over 6 game episodes, so I really would have been happier to have an in-between episode or two with the Royal Parents still involved as they handed down their family values to shape her into the young Princess she's currently become. But I guess there's no going back now, I just hope the next episode doesn't fast forward 40 years to show an aging and bitter Princess Sonja living alone in a decaying castle amongst a hundred cats. (well, the cat part would still be adorable)

Elven Legend games are strategy-based Time Management games requiring you to queue your tasks in a specific order. You can play in a Relaxed mode with no timer (and apparently no available Stars) a Normal Mode, or a Professional Mode, and you can replay the levels as often as necessary. Bonus Icons become available that help you beat the levels, such as Worker's Speed, Add Workers, Double the Production of Resources, Speed up Work Production or even Increase the number of Existing Resources.

There are the normal TM tasks of collecting food, water, wood, stone crystals, etc. and the same tasks of clearing the roads, repairing bridges and filling in pits along the way. Princess Sonja, who has the ability to animate non-living objects, of course, does all the magic work. The Princess soon discovers how dangerous the Kingdom can be without the Royal Guards protection. Luckily, Haseth, a kind, but shifty-eyed hero comes to her aid, claiming to be a friend of her parents, King Tillian and Queen Aerin. Haseth suggests a change of plans, to escort her to his castle where they can send word to her royal parents, (classic move, I told you they made Sonja grow up too quickly! She didn't even get the chance to have the "Royal Talk" with her mum!)

There are several Altars of Resources available in each level that will produce 2 units of renewable resources over a period of time. Magical Trees produce wood, but they will first require Water before they will regrow or produce, Waterwells can be constructed on most levels or reproduced on altars. You will need to construct different buildings as well as upgrade them to produce various resources such as Farms to produce food, Workers House's to hire extra workers, Sawmills for wood, Inn's to produce Gold, Mines to produce magic Crystals, Labs to produce Philosopher's Stones as a source of Princess Sonja's magic.

Some levels require items to be Crafted such as creating Clay, Wood, an Iron Golems before the Princess can animate them. Crafted items you gather will automatically move to the icon, and once all items have been collected you need to click on the icon to complete the task.

In the Collector's Edition version, each scene has a Morphing Faun Statuette (60) Collectible Books (60) and 12 collectible Baby Golems in 5 different categories or types (60) You can replay the levels after completing them, to pick up missed collectibles or morphs, without having to replay the level, you will NOT lose your star rating if you only return to pick them up! There are 8 Wallpapers, 8 Concept Art Character Pictures, 39 Achievements to earn, a High Scores Leaderboard, 10 extra CE Bonus Levels, and a built-in Strategy Guide, enjoy!

Typically, I like a little more to my TM games. I'm not sure what this was lacking but I had fun. It seemed really simple, I passed each level with 3 stars, only having to repeat a handful to get a perfect score. 2020

I recommend this game!

Didn't want folks to discredit this game bc of the reviews. I didn't find it very difficult - just what I would typically expect from a TM game. Thought this was very much in line with this series...

I recommend this game!

This one is not as good as the prequels. The "challenge" mode is so easy a fourth-grader could have done it. No fun at all.

I don't recommend this game.

Have played some others in this series and succumbed to the hype about it when it came out. I decided to buy it and was extremely disappointed. This is a childlike games with no strategy involved at all. You almost cannot go wrong no matter what path you choose. The story line is so disjointed and unintelligible at times, I gave up trying to follow it. The only thing nice about it was the cute ...Show more

I don't recommend this game.

I have no idea why this was mislabeled as time management game. This game has the most ridiculous amount of items required for everything! Why should I have to read a strategy guide before every level? AWFUL GAME waste of time and money!
