Love Chronicles: The Sword and the Rose

Love Chronicles: The Sword and the Rose

Operating System: PC/Mac
Website:  Official Website
Rating: 3.5/5
Comments: This game has got some nice graphics. The 3D effects blended in well with the other backgrounds and the general artstyle. It was rather annoying that there was no spoken dialogue as that made a whole lot more reading, and the story actually was a good one as it follows on from the others. The plot, while being interesting, moves a bit slow with this "beast" not really showing up until much later than expected... mind you, there was a real plot twist there so I kinda forgave them in the end for that.

One of the things I didn't really like was some of the puzzles were boring. You had to make strange contraptions that got really picky about where you put things and the typical sliding puzzles that drive me nuts anyway. The worst one of all was the embroidery one! I mean... you had to click every single thing! And what if you got it wrong? There was no undo button or anything!

I did like how the title screen changed once you completed the game. The bonus content wasn't actually the best but the extra chapter was fun to play. I actually didn't mind playing this game as there weren't that many HO scenes to trawl through so it kept me interested at least.
