BOTTOM LINE

We are still not sure whether Grim Legends: The Forsaken Bride can be matched with Artifex's previous work, Enigmatis: The Mists of Ravenwood - but nothing can really match that one after all. As a standalone game, Grim Legends: The Forsaken Bride is amazing in every way possible; it is a total eye-candy and an awesome story-teller, not to mention that the Collector's Edition is very tightly packed!

Grim Legends: The Forsaken Bride - Review
Artifex Mundi is one of the most talented groups of casual games developers, and with their newest release Grim Legends: The Forsaken Bride, they continue to impress us. Grim Legends blasts off with a pretty epic and stunning cutscene, flawless animations, top-notch sound effects and most definitely, wonderful graphics! The artwork in Grim Legends is totally wonderful, the vivid colors contrast with the ominous mood of the game. The soundtracks are phenomenal, kind of spooky; as for he voice overs, they are beyond the standard, very emotional indeed.
There is nothing ground-breaking in the gameplay of Grim Legends though, still, the game does every right and that is what matters the most. The pace of the game is fast, the story develops quickly and the excitement keeps building to an epic payoff. Advanced players will have no problem playing through this game, it is not very challenging but some tasks in the game are actually quite interesting. The Hidden Object scenes come in varied styles and they can be switched to a cool Domino mode. The puzzles require more brainwork, not all of them are innovative but a good number of them are; we love that a few puzzles actually add some values to the story and help drive the story forward.

Grim Legends: The Forsaken Bride - Review

As with all the qualified Collector’s Editions, there are Achievements, Collectibles which come in two types; one which tells some more background story, a Strategy Guide, Wallpapers, Concept Art, Soundtracks, Movies and replayable Hidden Objects. Purchasing the Collector’s Edition is worthy of every penny as there are TWO Bonus Chapters which came to a total length of one and a half hour, added to the already satisfying long 4 and a half hour of the main game.
