I Loved the last Puppetshow: The Curse of Ophelia it was Super Fun and last time I questioned where is Spider Boy and I hope that they would bring back the Black haired Doll and I got my wish. They brought back so many good memories of the past games with the continued throwback with other beloved characters and some new ones (guard doll) I'm so happy to see them. I guess only fans understand. I bought all the Puppetshows. Loved all but two. The two were OK.

You can pick your gender, looks and occupation. I always choose a blonde female like myself or a red head. Occupation is choose your hero-Detective, Journalist or Adventurer. You collect piggybanks to buy things like the mechanical cat (another character from past games) to keep your cat company. (It's things for your cat that Miriam made or invented). Find 32 Masks and the indicator changes color when you find them. Usually the Puppetshow Achievements have a sense of humor and tricky things on it.

Last time some people complained that they are dolls and not puppets and I see the disclaimer this time saying we have all kinds of puppets and dolls. Give me a break. They are both cool and ok in my book. Now you have people chirping about the disclaimer. People can always find something to complain about. I just want to have fun and play games. If you don't want to play games, why are you here?

I thought the end of the trial had a nice twist and I'm buying it at the next good sale. Show less

I recommend this game!

I did not hit any spots in this game that left me bored. The 90 minute demo flew by, I had only 7 minutes left, when I was cut off. The H.O.s were different, , and the puzzles were all great.
I was about to give up on H.O. games, I think I will be buying this one....

I recommend this game!

The graphics and colors are just marvelous. Following the storyline makes the player want to get to the conclusion. The BONUS GAME is a great ending for the main characters. The other games in the series needed to be more "satisfying" for the player. This game accomplished every aspect that I fully enjoy: Storyline; HOG; Interior games; Graphics and Color.

Finally! The Puppet Show series has kicked up a notch! I have all of them and even I was beginning to get bored and then along comes this game and I'm back In the game (get it?)

Based on 10 mins of the demo, as that's all it took for me to think: yes, this is a buy for me.

I recommend this game!

MY “FAITH IN THE FUTURE” OF AMAX GAMES HAS BEEN RESTORED

PostedJuly 12, 2018

fromThis game reminds me there are some advantages of having a puppet-self. You can be in two places at the same time, sending your puppet-self to those places you don’t want to be.

REVIEW BASED UPON THE ENTIRE GAME
4 Chapters Plus a Bonus Chapter - Strategy Guide: 45 Pages

OVERVIEW: Detective! Prepare to investigate another puppet-inspired mystery. In this case, you must save the terminally ill Miriam White from an evildoer. Super scientist Miriam, with the help of her assistant, Frank, has attempted to transfer her soul into a puppet. However, something has gone awry and now poor Miriam’s consciousness is split between her body and her lookalike puppet. Beware! In trying to save your friend, you could end up as a puppet yourself. Who is the villain here? There are some surprises as you investigate this case.

OPINION: Surprises? This game surprised me! It is a great game! The demo does not do justice to this game. The game still has numerous puppets; however, the elements I found irritating in the previous games of the series are gone from this game. There are no helpers in this game, although there is a puppet with scissors who helps at the very beginning of the game. However, she disappears after the demo. The grunting dwarf does not appear, thankfully. There is a gimmick, half a pair of scissors, in the bonus chapter, but it is only used three (3) times.

This game should appeal to those who like this series. The story, although a little offbeat, does touch upon the dark side of robotics. The graphics are incredibly beautiful as in all of AMAX games. The hand-drawn scenes are breathtaking! The pace is decent, although I found a few slow spots throughout the game. This game demonstrates that you do not need gimmicks nor helpers to produce an excellent game. There are some very creative HOP scenes and puzzles in this game – including a NEW TYPE OF HOP SCENE. I love the activities in this game. However, despite all this, I do believe it is time to end the series. I am tired of this series and the numerous puppets. It is time AMAX cut the strings and put those puppets back in the box. I would love to see this caliber of game in a new series.

MECHANICS: There are the usual four (4) levels of play including a customized version. You can choose your character’s appearance from six (6) choices – three (3) are male and three (3) are female. They include choices between Detective, Journalist, and Adventurer as well. You collect coins, as in all AMAX games, to purchase items for a special room. There are twenty-six (26) morphing objects (masks) and eleven (11) collectibles (coins). You can replay fourteen (14) HOP scenes and eleven (11) puzzles. However, with the quality of these puzzles, I wish AMAX had provided more puzzles to replay.

BONUS CHAPTER: It is a sequel. You are still on a quest to save Marian. You are off to locate a book which contains a formula for a remedy to save her. There is a gimmick in this chapter; however, it is not used often. You receive a scissors blade to cut things. It is a decent length and there are some fantastic HOP scenes and puzzles within this chapter.

HOP SCENES: Many of the HOP scenes are amazing! From what I could count there are twenty (20) HOP scenes plus a myriad of mini-HOP scenes in which you search for a small number of items or pieces of items. They are creatively designed. My favorites are the search and replace scenes. There is one scene in which you search for morphing objects. There is another which is mathematical in nature. Solve equations and then search for the numbers using a special mirror. What I did not find, nor did I miss, were boring lists of items within this game.

AWESOME NEW HOP SCENE - STENCILS: Toward the end of the game there is a scene I have never seen before. You place animal-shaped stencils within a scene. You must locate the colors within the scene which best fit the animal involved, and then, place the stencil in place to produce a rather cool depiction of the animal. Creative genius at work here!

PUZZLES: The puzzles are better after the demo. From what I could count there are thirty-four (34) in the game. They vary in design and difficulty. You do have a few puzzles which allow you to choose between “casual” and hard” modes of play. There are quite a few maze puzzles which are just “a-maze-ing!” Listed below are some my favorites after the demo:

SPOILERS: SOME OF MY FAVORITE PUZZLES AFTER THE DEMO:
A. Logic puzzle. Place three tokens into position on a sliding scale according to clues given concerning their placement.
B. Maze puzzle. Move a marionette through a series of hands until it reaches its strings. You must rotate the hands to move it from hand-to-hand.
C. Choice between casual and hard. Maze puzzle. Lead a mouse through a series of mazes picking up keys to unlock doors as you proceed. You are give a specific amount of moves in the hard version.
D. Beat the computer. Card puzzle. Match up pairs of cards which are related to each other, attempting to get more points than the computer for the matches.
E. Marble shooter puzzle. Remove images by shooting a marble with an image upon it at a moving chain of marbles. Shoot the marble toward similar marbles so that three or more of the same image are removed. Remove all the marbles before the chain reaches the end.
BONUS CHAPTER:
F. Map puzzle. Move a tram down the track to its destination by landing on the correct spots to remove obstacles in its path. If you make a mistake, you must start over.
G. Map puzzle. Plot a course using arrows to lead a key through a pathway to its designated lock. You will need to place the arrows in place before pressing “Start.” 3X for 3 different colored keys. Show less

I recommend this game!
