Grim Tales: The Generous Gift Collector's Edition

Grim Tales : The Generous Gift est le 18ème volet de la série. On assiste ici au kinapping de la fille d’Anna, Alice qui disparait après avoir recu une mystérieuse peluche pour son anniversaire. Graphiquement, c’est plus que correct, on ne pourra regretter que les animations des personnages un peu rigides. Les scènes sont variés bien qu’assez courantes dans ce style de jeu. On a une légère impression de déjà-vus. Les puzzles peuvent se montrer un peu retord voire nébuleux, je dois avouer que j’en ai passé deux après galéré plusieurs minutes à essayer d’arranger les images dans les bonnes positions. Coté SOC, il alterne régulièrement avec les puzzles et sont dans l’ensemble assez simple à faire. On trouvera ici des collections à récupérer (pièces de puzzles, figurines et objets métamorphes), le tout agrémenté de succès non-steam. Ce Grim Tales : The Generous Gift se laisse suivre sans problème, on regrettera parfois que l’histoire se marche un peu dessus, un peu à l’image dans le chapitre bonus où Anna utilise une première fois pour traverser une faille temporelle un bouclier posé dessus et enjambe sur la scène suivante le même genre de phénomène… ^^ Mais bon, rien de bien méchant, au final, il reste un bon Hidden.

it should be noted that this is a relatively short game with very little replayability. that being said, it's a nice little HOg that follows along with the rest of the series. rest assured though, you don't need to have played the rest of the series to get through this one. it just makes it more interesting when you know more of the lore and more about the characters in it. the graphics are crisp like most of the other games by this developer. the sound quality's good and the music is nice. the down side, is like that of many games of this sort... the back-n-forth between scenes to complete the puzzles. but as i said, you get that with pretty much Any HOg. i Did have some issues with the game crashing a couple of times, but i can't honestly say that it wasn't just my computer being a butt. as far as i know this is based off an older game from Big Fish (as in i had seen it for sale over on their platform some time ago) but i'm not sure if it was remastered to bring it over here to Steam or not. so i don't know if that may have been a contributing issue with the crashing. but again... it could just have been all on my computer acting up just as easily. still, i figured i should mention it as a just-in-caser. at any rate, i enjoyed it when everything was playing nice together.

Main game was a bit short, but I think if it was a bit longer it would be boring. I like Anna's daughter & her husband Dorian's involvement in this game. The morphing objects were hard to spot, took a bit longer for them to make an appearance which is fine, just makes you sit back to appreciate the detailed rendering of the scenes. Game was smooth no glitches. The puzzles were not difficult and logical

Hidden object game. As it has been awhile since I’ve played this series, I am unsure where in the timeline it would be, though I think it is the “latest”. Your daughter Alice is celebrating her birthday when a mysterious gift arrives… and whisks her away. Now it up to you, Anna Gray, to rescue her. Seems your family can never keep out of trouble. HO scenes are challenging, minigames fun, and plot is intriguing. Do get in the bundle.

Some may find that this game is just a tad easy but i did enjoy the story and game play. Sadly the child talking sounded very bad :(

I love the main character's dad. What a rad dude.

game shuts down about half way through and Steam will not return your money because you have to play to the middle to get to the error and they only refund if you have only played for a few minutes.

Nice ;) ;)

A super fun entry in the series. Alice and Dorian are back! Includes bonus chapter and multiple types of collectibles.

This an enjoyable game. It has a few challenging puzzles I enjoyed. It takes about 6 hours to play easy mode. I always like Grim Tales games.
