Lost Chronicles (F2P)

I think it’s a shame about the less positive reviews. It took me a bit to get my head around the new format, but now I’m about half way through and absolutely loving this game…! Stunningly beautiful scenes, once again. In depth, wonderful storyline with a variety of options for how to get to your goals- or just spend more time immersed in the mini-games if you wish to, collecting more items. This also gives you the opportunity to extend how long you play for and set your own challenges to enjoy. I think it’s amazing! Also really appreciative of all the work which must have gone into this F2P fantasy game experience, thank you so much FIVE-BN <3

I loved this game! The puzzles were a great and I enjoyed the storyline. Great amount of content for free thanks five- bn

I thought I finally got the hang of this game….. I had to watch a YouTube walkthrough for the last crystal item…. But I cannot get the wooden horn after consistently playing so many mini games on the Wooden Keeper 🙄

I love five-bn and have played pretty much every one of their games at least twice however this game is a huge miss for me. It relies way too much on playing the same puzzles on repeat, especially for how long the game is. It really ruins the gameplay. There’s also in game hints that can’t be turned off which takes away from the challenge. I really hope this isn’t a reflection of their future games because I love how challenging and creative their other games and storyline’s are, especially the Lost Lands series.

I’ve been a fan of Five-bn games for a while, but the feel and playability of this one is over complicated, way to many HOGs, which you have to return to many times. The inventory is also complicated, which makes the flow and playability of the game sluggish. I prefer the style and and playability of the original style games.

I’ve played them all and hope you come out with more soon!

I don’t mind change and games evolving as the developers grow. But this game gets a little bit confusing on the steps you need to take to find items needed to progress in the game. All of the games by this developer are wonderful and I LOVE all they do. So I was hesitant to give 4 stars instead of 5, but if I’m being honest it’s just a little confusing with the different elements to the game that have been added. As always though, I love and appreciate their games.

I found this to be even more enjoyable than the other games by this developer, and i have played through them all. Yes, this one is different in its format from the other games, and it may take a moment to get the hang of it, but it delivers in everything i enjoy about HOP games. There are plenty of HOS, puzzles, and CHOiCE in how to obtain many of the objects, which made it that much more enjoyable IMHO. Being bake to choose which puzzle or HOS to do in order to complete the task was delightful. I hope they release another in the same format.

I really enjoyed playing this game. It was very innovative and fun. It took me a few days to finish it, (usually it takes me 1 or 2 days to finish a game like this). The story was interesting, gameplay even more. The only reason for the 4 stars is crafting certain items. Having to play same puzzles/hos few times in a row makes it bit dull. Overall I'm really satisfied and looking forward to seeing more games like this.

(REVISED OCT 8) I gave this game a second chance. I’ve revised my rating to 4 stars. Here are my views. Like their other games, once this game gets going the story is okay and logical. There is a nice variety of HOS (Hidden object scenes) and games. Also, the developers are EXTREMELY generous with hints, skips, and even diamonds which you can win by playing the game. This is truly free to play. The main differences between this and their other games are as follows: — Instead of finding morphing objects or collectables to unlock HOS or games in the “EXTRAS” menu, now these HOS/games are incorporated into the main game. You play them to collect items to craft elements. — The crafted elements help advance the story, and also reward you with hints, skips, and diamonds. — Although these HOS and games are timed, the clock is tied to bonus prizes and do not impact the progress of the game. — The game progress is rigidly linear, you will not be able to interact with everything in a scene. Things don’t unlock until the story calls for it, so you’ll visit most locations a number of times. — once the game is finished, instead of a bonus chapter you can continue playing (haven’t tried this very long, but your character stays in the village and completes tasks to build a home) I mostly liked the game. I would have given it five stars except for two issues: First, the timed HOS and games. It is stressful, and despite my liking most of the “cache” games I did not enjoy playing them. Like I said, having the clock run out doesn’t prevent you from solving the puzzle and winning what you need to progress, but it makes it stressful and takes a great deal of the satisfaction away. (I felt like a dummy every time the clock ran out). Second, as the story progresses you are required to win more items per crafted element. Eventually that’s the only option left to progress so you end up completing the same HOS or puzzle several times in a row, making it a bit of a slog. (ORIGINAL) This developer has some of the best adventure games with a nice mix of HOS, interactive HOS, and games woven through clever story lines. Unfortunately this game is not like previous games. I didn’t play very long. From what I gather, the point of the game is to collect and craft items by exploring and completing timed hidden object scenes. You have to keep playing them until you find or win what you need to move on to the next task. You can also buy the collectibles, or hints/help, with diamonds
