Look beneath your Map! Assembled Items have to be placed in the right order.Ģ: One completed Item goes on to complete another.ģ: in the final scene, smash the mirrored images with the hammer to match each character change by the Illusionist. Tips: 1: Very important – when preparing to do the Latin words game, don’t panic because you don’t know Latin. You will see an example of this in the pic for MOON LIGHT above. In 2 there are sneaky little ‘eye spots’, that show up blue, with a funny noise as you pass over them, to magnify and search for an extra missing part. When you can no longer go any further remember that you can access the second site via the Coins, where you can collect other items for both sites. Game-play: As already mentioned, your main play involves collecting parts, solving problems, and moving to the next location, whether via the Map in 1 & 2, or in 3 via portals which you don’t seem to activate other than by finding scrolls at each of the sites which sends you on through the cut-scene. This also recharges slowly.Ĭollections: 1: Gems ( at least 2 per site) Question Marks ( varied number per site).Ģ: Gems for the Amulet, to travel to the Professor’s Vault. They can all be Skipped, though you need to look carefully as the Skip button isn’t always consistently positioned. Mini-Games & Puzzles: These are in all games, and vary in fun, logic, difficulty and frustration levels. While you may have to peer when searching for these last items per site, you can use the Hint to find them. Then you can settle down to find the bits, still missing in the Bar below, that may be harder to find. I actually like this more than the specific HOPs – you get to immediately do an across the scene (fun) sweep for anything that looks out of place. HOPs: There are none as such, but each site has scattered pieces of items to be found and repaired in the REPAIR ARTIFACT BAR. In 2 a gem will be above it’s site in place of the red flag until you have returned to collect it. Each site when complete has a red flag above its chosen icon – if there is no flag it means that you still need to find all the Gems. The Origami Crane, that assists you in these games, circles the next site to be explored. They act as a Default Screen between game levels. The locations are well depicted, very suitable to their specific countries, with colourful images that are fun to explore. In fact I think this is worse in 2 than in 1. The earlier two games tend to be a little blurry at times despite the Game Mode on my screen which does improve them somewhat. Graphics: These are actually quite enjoyable, especially in 3. Tutorial: Automatic tutes that you need to just bear with, follow instructions, then get on with the game. 3: has story-line in colour.Įxtras: Surprisingly, in Game 2 there are MINI-GAMES that you can play after the game ends.ĭesktop 1: (Left) Crystal (1) (Left-Centre)Repair Artifact Bar (Top Right) Site Coins, Map Globe (Right Centre) Inventory for completed Artifacts (Bottom Right) Jewel Box for collected Gems, ? (Hint).Ģ: (Left) Crystal (1) (Left-Centre)Repair Artifact Bar (Top Right) Site Coins, Map Globe (Right Centre) Inventory for completed Artifacts (Bottom Right) Amulet for collected Gems, ? (Hint).ģ: (Left) Catherine, Special Items Locked Lens (Centre) Inventory /Repair Artifact Bar (Right) Magic Glasses, Crystal Ball (Hint). 1 & 2: there are no Voice-Overs – just intervening black & white drawings of story-lines (not quite story-boards). Music & Voice-Overs: The music improves from first to third game, becomes less repetitive and more relevant. So though the story is a bit basic, the format keeps you moving forward.

Obviously games have rapidly developed since these came out, but despite their less sophisticated Options settings, their formats are actually really good and still stand as a great alternative to the sometimes over-complicated later games.

I recently revisited these older games when I realised that I had yet to review them. There may be a moment of confusion when opening game 2 which just opens as MAGIC ENCYCLOPEDIA – don’t panic – it then moves on to the MOON LIGHT page. However, ILLUSIONS is not Widescreen which is surprising. Options & Main Menu: These are very basic in FIRST STORY, are basic in MOON LIGHT, and just a little better in ILLUSIONS, which also has Chapters under PLAY so you can go back in the story if you wish.
