Modern Tales

Orchid Games and Artifex Mundi gave us a terrific little gem of a game! The storyline wasn’t extremely original, but it was enjoyable to interact with famous personalities from that era, such as Zeppelin, Porsche, Coco Chanel and Albert Einstein. At times the dialogue was somewhat humorous as well. You could customize settings. The graphics were gorgeous and exciting, set throughout various locales in Europe. At each location you must collect a hidden atom symbol. There was an excellent marked teleport map to transport you instantaneously between locations. Inventory was labeled and there were complex items to assemble. There was no cohesive journal but objectives were regularly updated. Gameplay was smooth and it was easy to apply inventory items; no dragging was necessary: simply tap the item and then the area to use the tool. The HO scenes had some variation but no alternative puzzle; at least there were no annoying morphing objects to find. There was a good variety of puzzles and mini-games. Some were somewhat simplistic but nevertheless enjoyable. This game was downright fun to play. My actual review is 4.5 stars. I deducted only half a star for the following reasons: firstly, the dialogue flashed by too quickly at times for me to read it. Secondly, for the price of the game there should have been a bonus adventure. This game was fantastic though and I hope Artifex Mundi starts giving us games regularly again! Thank you again to Catalina, who let all the reviewers know that this game was even distributed. Happy gaming and happy Thanksgiving to all reviewers!

The most beautiful game I've played. You won't be bored if you're a fan of inactive HO. You won't be bored if your looking for the atom in a scene. You won't be bored if your playing this game. What can I say....beautiful game and graphics. Oh and fun mini games...that's what I can say...enjoy!

Have missed your games so Very Much for us IPad users. This game I am thoroughly enjoying! Very creative & unique storyline, with interactive hidden object scenes, puzzles and collectibles to find in the scenes. Teleporting map is provided.
