What players say

Players who enjoyed the earlier Northern Tale games generally like this entry too, though they are split on a new hidden-object mechanic that often requires an external guide. The level design is more linear than before, and some miss the bonus levels. The time pressure can be turned off, and the graphics stay familiar.
