Okay, I did the bonus chapter. It was called "The Boy Who Cried Wolf!"

I don't have much to praise other than the plot, so… Anyway! In this bonus, we play a guy who's got a dad who's super smart, super magical. But it so happens that his father somehow (or our hero, I didn't figure it out) stole a magic wolf artifact from the king and now he (or our bad guy) has to get fucked up for it)) In the course of the story we free his father with the help of a mermaid, and then we find out where everything went wrong, how we discovered the magical side of the world and why the whole castle went under the water X))

In general, everything is very funny and interesting as always, you know~

I didn’t know you liked Dark Parables! I want to know, what’s your favorite or least favorite game of the series?

Definitely the Red Riding Hood Sisters for the favorite!

Truth be told though, I haven’t actually played any of the other games in the series, so i don’t have a least favorite - but it’s on my to-do-list I swear!

What about you?

I do feel like I should note that from maybe day 1 of playing Dark Parables (and there's a definite chance this was unconscious projecting on my part) I've seen the detective as a trans man. I say unconscious projecting bc I hadn't come to the conclusion of transness yet. I also somehow completely missed that novelization in Briar Rose. so.

#i feel like in games where you can customize the character appearance i tend to make/use fem ocs bc they tend to have more options #and ones where you can't do that I'll lean towards masc/male ocs #anyways. love my gay depressed ray of sunshine disaster detective #he and briar are besties #until sky kingdom and then leonard joins their trio #he (leonard) gets a crush on one of the red riding hood sisters and john happily takes on the role of encouraging older brother #john is both friend shaped and brother shaped #he Does not care if someone is older than him. he will be big brother if he needs to #and then ballad of rapunzel happens and he has his breakdown and finally goes to therapy #and after that he takes on a mentor role with belladonna bc they both have touch/hand based powers #that are largely dangerous to people around them #anyways im rambling and need to sleep #potato talks #potato rambles in tags #i need to get back to my dark parables fics

Just wondering, how would you rank the Dark Parables games from least favorite to most favorite?

Ooooo okay so these are going to be ranked by story, mechanics, designs and just how much I love them!

Least Favorite- Most Favorite

15. The Little Mermaid and the Purple Tide: I feel like this is not a surprise given my rants. Bad story. Bad mechanics.

14. The Thief and the Tinderbox: Again I feel like this isn't a surprise. Bad story. Bad continuity. Bad designs.... but! The mechanics were not bad.

13. Queen of Sands: it felt off in a way. Like it didn't belong in the series. Mechanics okay. Designs/art decent. Bad story.

12. Return of the Salt Princess: nothing wrong with the mechanics or designs or anything. I liked the story somewhat, it just overall isn't a favorite.

11. Portrait of the Stained Princess: it was alright, I liked the art and such. I just felt like it could have been more. Story wise, I mean. I don't know. It didn't engage me as much as others.

10. The Swan Princess and the Dire Tree: it's sad because I'm a sucker for swan princess things whether it be the Swan Lake ballet, the barbie movie or the Don bluth ones (only the first and second ones though) and I was excited for this game but it ultimately hadn't been something I expected but I did enjoy it a bit. Though again, continuity threw me off since there was barely any.

9. The Red Riding Hood Sisters: I do like this one, but not as much as others. I liked the concept, the designs, the mechanics, and the story somewhat. I just wish I could have been more engaged in it.

8. Exiled Prince: Look, I like it a lot, it is arguably one of the most iconic games in the series but the mechanics are what put it here. It had a wonderful story and everything it was just those mechanics that hung me up.

7. Curse of Briar Rose: another one I really love, but those mechanics just hurt. If they remade it it would definitely ranked higher.

6. The Match Girl's Lost Paradise: such a fun story!! It was so interesting and I really liked it and was very engaged!

5. Goldilocks and the Fallen Star: fun game! Engaging! Also, bonus for Jack, just not a top five fav.

4. Rise of the Snow Queen: Snow White is one of my favorite fairy tales, and the fact they merged it with the Snow Queen story had me elated! I loved it! I was so engaged!

3. Jack and the Sky Kingdom: Has some of my favorite characters of the series! Had an engaging storyline! The mechanics were great! And the puzzles were fun.

2. Ballad of Rapunzel: SO fun! So interesting! So much lore given, and I love lore! It was unique with its endings. Overall a very great game!

1. The Final Cinderella: I am biased. Very biased. Cinderella is my favorite fairy tale. I have so many different versions of it. I have watched everything Cinderella or so I'm convinced. The story was so fun and engaging and the art! Oh man the art! And I cared for all the characters!

A post that isn’t Mystery Case Files related 😅

The characters are from a hidden object game called Dark Parables: The Red Riding Hood Sisters. The first drawing is Ruth and the second two drawings is Briar Rose.

Okay, I've gotten past the main story of part 4 of "Parables", it has the title "The Red Riding Hood Sisters". And here's what I think about it:

Plusside: once again going by the plot that ate my brain. It so happened that Little Red Riding Hood was left an orphan (her grandmother was eaten, not spit out, she didn't come out alive from the wolf's belly) and she too was almost eaten by a wolf one day, but in time a hunter uncle appeared and adopted Little Red Riding Hood. He brought her up as a hunter, and since then Red Riding Hood, as an adult, also rescued the orphan and took her in. This "twist of the ear" became a kind of tradition that served to create the Order of the "Sisters of Little Red Riding Hood". At one point, one of these sisters, wanting to become the leader of the brave women hunters, decided to take a risk and killed the king of the Misty Kingdom, taking his amulet. But that amulet fed on rage and empowered the girl, and so she became the Wolf Queen. This Wolf Queen had a friend named Raphael from the Misty Kingdom (they'd been friends since they were kids), but as soon as she sort of "disappeared" he started looking for her. And when he found out what happened, he was really surprised at first, but then he was like, "Shit, this is fucked up! What am I gonna do now? I don't know! I'm in shock, but I'm not gonna let it go!" Also!!! The coolest thing here, is that Briar Rose from Part 1 is joining us!!! She's decided to become a brave hunter too, and that's pretty cool!!! ^^ Well, in the end, we defeat our Wolf Queen. And as if we should all go back, but in the end our candy "Raphaelka" stayed with the Queen, because he still did not want to leave her alone, and she is lying there half alive. Anyway, these two decided that if to die, so together, or not to die, well, in general… They decided to stay in the magical world. But with the whole place blowing up, they're probably dead... M-hm

Downside: the FINAL FIGHTING WITH WOLVES JUST KILLED ME. How to switch the arrows to make them exactly the same color to their death from the magic arrows caps - not clear (I had to restart three times, somehow magically I managed to destroy them, but …. it was at the cost of my last nerve cell, lol)

/I'll get through the bonus chapter soon, but it won't happen that soon, but still...

One day the peace in Alblasserwaard, South Holland , is cut short by the appearance of a castle in the sky amidst the clouds and reports of large chunks falling down and hurting many innocents, among the reports of an unknown man threatening the locals. The Fairytale Detective must team up with Jack, a local adventurer, in order to infiltrate the mystical Sky Kingdom and stop this from happening while uncovering the past that the local hero seems to want to hide. The sixth title of the Dark Parables starts strong, this time bringing the Jack and the Beanstalk with elements of Rumpelstiltskin and even other tales of greed, along with the series usual own spin to the story. While it somehow does feel a straightforward adventure like the Red Riding Hood Sisters instead of the amazing crescendo that was The Final Cinderella, the end leaves a few things open despite the happy ending for the protagonists – and it will certainly come back to haunt the Fairytale Detective in the future. Still, the way they reinvent some stories like the magical beans and the three brothers is always entertaining to witness.

Besides the noticeable comic book style text box for the characters speaking on the screen – which is quite often this time around – there are a few new things around. One of them is that even in casual mode once you skip a puzzle the hint system is locked for a few minutes as opposed to merely recharging as usual. However, the most noticeable change is now that some of the hidden object scenes have hidden compartments and objects to open, like drawers. Some of them are obvious enough, like looking under a doll, while the secret niches can get slightly hard to tell.

As expected from the series, the graphics still have the high-detailed storytelling with each area from Jack’s cottage and the Sky Kingdom reflecting its inhabitants and their personalities, which leads to some very varied backgrounds. King Eurig’s greed also provides for some lavish things that, compared to the other kings, was actually quite modest perhaps because the treasure was stolen by Jack.

The bonus showcases the Queen of the Sky Kingdom and the consequences of the actions that led her to marry King Eurig and how by the end she left him. It is mostly inconsequential to the main story, but gives some extra depth for the antagonist and some beautiful places to explore.

Jack is a fun co-protagonist and the Sky Kingdom has some very interesting worldbuilding, but it pales in comparison to the two previous titles. While it does introduce ideas like groups of adventurers and fortune-seeking with some grave consequences and a melodramatic story, some elements narrowly fall short.

Dark Parables

Introduction:

Dark Parables is a series of casual games created by Blue Tea Studios, and later taken over by Eipix Games. The series is still ongoing; the first game, Curse of Briar Rose came out in 2010, and at the time of writing, the latest game, Portrait of the Stained Princess came out in 2019. There are 16 games in the mainline series, and 2 spinoff games.

The series is set in a fictional, fairytale world, where well known fairy tales are given a darker, twisty spin as the title suggests. The games are connected, with various characters and plot points running through the series, though each game is a standalone, individual mystery.

Gameplay:

As the title suggests, these are casual games, meaning most of the gameplay is delivered through two things: point and click (PoP) and hidden object puzzles (HOP). Though the games are by no means RPG, you do play a character, the Fairytale Detective. The Detective is a silent protagonist, well known in the game world. The characters refer to the Detective’s more ‘well known’ cases, and express relief and happiness when you arrive to solve whatever mystery you’re called to solve. Though originally genderless, in the later games the Detective is canonically revealed as a woman, so I will be referring to her by she/her pronouns.

The cases vary depending on the game, but they include rescuing kidnapped children, breaking curses, solving murders and even toppling entire cities from the sky. Each game starts with a briefing from your boss, who gives you the conceit of the case and you take over from there.

In the beginning, HOPs were the main puzzle of the series, but as it progressed, it relied significantly less on them, and more on other types of puzzles. However, the HOPs themselves are different from other games in this genre, as you aren’t looking for specific objects in a set piece, most of which won’t be useful, but rather to find pieces of an object and put it together. Sometimes it’s an artifact, sometimes it’s a weapon, and sometimes just a stylized version of everyday appliances.

This was personally what drew me to the series; I really like that you complete an object instead of tracking down 30 random things your character will never need. It makes the HOP a lot more relevant to the character and lets the designers make the HOP puzzles as organic sections of the environment itself, instead of non-diegetic interruptions.

The other puzzles in the game vary, but they are all activated by the Detective opening locks, chests, completing murals, windows and similar environments. Like the HOP they are usually organically tied into the location you are exploring, and oftentimes they explain things in the story, like backgrounds on key characters or events. As an example, you will often encounter some kind of interactable painting or collage that will tell a story, and by solving it, the Detective will learn a key aspect of the case that lets you progress.

Each game has 3 modes of play: easy, normal and hard. On easy, the hint button recharges quickly, there is no penalty for clicking on the wrong object in a HOP, and you can skip puzzles quickly. On normal, the time for skipping and hint recharging is longer, and there are penalties for randomly clicking around the HOP screen. On hard, there are no hints, you can’t skip puzzles and the penalty kicks in after 3 wrong tries.

The first 3 games only let you unlock hard after playing through the game once on easy or normal, and also have a bonus for the hardmode. The bonus is usually an object the detective starts the game with which unlocks a separate room that has something interesting, like a hint to the bonus story or the next game in the series. From The Red Riding Hood Sisters on, the series discards the hardmode bonus and the hidden rooms.

All of the games have additional puzzle and collector pieces. The first one is the Cursed Objects: objects in the gameworld that shapeshift into something else. Finding each helps replenish your hint bar, and collecting all 20 gives the player an achievement and sometimes a reward.

Achievements are something that was introduced in the spinoff game Cursery: The Crooked Man and the Crooked Cat, and are a collectors award; you can get achievements for anything from solving a HOP without hints, to solving a HOP with no wrong clicks, to finding 5 objects in 5 seconds, and so on.

The third game, Rise of the Snow Queen introduced Parables. Parables are items you can find in the game world which you can collect. When you collect a certain amount you unlock a story, which is usually a retelling of the fairytale or an aspect of the fairytale from the main game. They explain the backstory and lore, and are fun to collect.

The final Blue Tea Game, The Ballad of Rapunzel introduces Flowerstones, which like Parables are collectable items you can find in the game world. Collecting 20 can net the player an item which unlocks a different ending not accessible in the main game.

Standard vs. Collector’s Editions:

All of the games in the series have a Standard and a Collectors edition. The Standard Edition contains the base game and only that; the Collector’s Edition contains the base game, a bonus game, bonus materials and a strategy guide. It’s also more expensive.

Now, I personally think that the Standard Edition isn’t the complete game, and don’t ever recommend getting it. The base game by itself is just not nearly as entertaining or good without the bonus game and materials. Yes, you still get a complete game, and you can still unlock all the Parables and achievements, but you are missing out on the extras and the bonus game which are usually great.

The bonus games vary; in the first 2 games, Curse of Briar Rose and The Exiled Prince, the bonus games are just a separate bonus level in the game; in the case of CoBR it’s literally just a room, with 2 appendages. But from Rise of the Snow Queen on, the bonus games are entirely new stories, where you play as a character other than the Detective, and you learn something new; it could be the backstory of a character, an enchanted object, what happened to a place or just an additional adventure after the main one is over.

The bonus materials are usually the same: there is concept art, wallpapers, a movie gallery where you can rewatch all the cutscenes, and download the music and wallpaper files.

The strategy guide is basically just a walkthrough. It contains all the solutions to all the puzzles, along with screenshots, as well as all the locations of all the Cursed Objects, Parables and Flowerstones. It’s not necessary, but it is useful if you are a completionist, or you are playing on hardmode and you get stuck on a particular puzzle.

Art Direction:

This series is most well known for its gorgeous art style and direction. It is simply stunning; all the locations are beautifully crafted, there is an incredible amount of detail put into each scene, the animation in some of the games is amazing considering these are casual games, and I love the designs of the characters and the costumes.

Each HOP is a joy to solve because the games are so beautiful, and some shots are downright stunning. The only issue is sometimes the voice acting which is uneven.

Story:

There isn’t exactly an overarching story in all the games; more like common elements. For example, characters you meet in earlier games come back later and you can see what’s happened to them in the meantime. They also comment on stories or react to events, so you do get a sense that all these cases are happening in the same universe. The way I would describe it, is that the games share a world, while the individual standalone adventures are their unique, contained stories.
