Dark Parables: The Red Riding Hood Sisters Collector’s Edition

while not as great in the puzzle department, the production values of the fourth installment in the dark parables series are up the roof. the animations, acting, art and sound direction are beyond spectacular, and the plot catches up with a great cameo and a couple of twists that grab you by the throat and refuse to let go. the wolf queen in particular stands out as a great and tragic villain, and she's drawn and animated to enhance the effect she has in every scene she's present. in this one, the extra material in the form of fables offers a bigger view of the overall plot for the series and hints not only who's going to be the focus of the next entry but also what connects all of these magical threads and why. if you're into the story of the dark parables series, this will surely please you.

Nostalgia and wolves! Feels good to play this again after years. My only suggestion for this is the graphics to be better for bigger screens. The graphics are quite blurry on my end, but still a good gameplay!

Starting to really get into this series. This game is much better, the hint button works. Very pretty, I enjoyed the story too

I have played the games from the series before and now that I got them on steam I'm slowly making my way throughout the series once more. This was one of my favorites, maybe because I'm partial to the story of the Little Red Riding Hood and things like the ranger class in DND.

The forth game of the Dark Parable series follow the Fairytale detective once more to investigate the reports from a missing girl rescued from the forest. According to her, wolves covered in mist were being commanded by a mysterious woman with glowing eyes. Set out to meet up with the order of the Red Riding Hood Sisters that protect the region for centuries, the detective is ambushed shortly as she arrived but also rescued by one of the sisters, named Ruth. Together, they set out to investigate the mysterious Wolf Queen and rescue the other sisters, who have been kidnapped.
This title expands the lore of the series even further, with ramifications that will be met in future titles and a special surprise from one of the previous games. The story of this game in itself have a few twists and some interesting characters too.
While there aren’t any noticeable new mechanics, the pacing is much better than Rise of the Snow Queen with the backtracking being far more logical and better structured, with the story giving better indication on where to go next than before.
Graphic-wise they did try some angles for the backgrounds that are unusual for HoD games, with varying results but still welcomed, with most of the locations being pleasing to look at.
The Bonus Content takes place 500 before the story and reveals what happened to the Mist Kingdom and why it is the way it is, inspired by The Boy Who Cried Wolf. It has some very beautiful visuals and can be very colorful, contrasting to the somewhat darker tones of the main story that appropriately uses night themes.

It is a very good game, a point that the series found a good formula and stuck with it.

The game is lovely and has a high production value. Gameplay, hidden object scenes, puzzles, graphics and characters are superb in every way. This is one of my favorite games.

Woof! Woof! :/
