Lost Lands: Stories of the First Brotherhood Reviews

Intricate and well thought out plot structure and wide range of puzzles to solve!

Note that i play offline so playtime is different to Steam stats. I thoroughly enjoyed the Lost Lands series, playing as Susan the Warmaiden. BUT! Well, Susan has now been reduced to an ineffectual Granny-blob in a corner of a sofa, telling tales from a picture-book to a group of wide-eyed kids. Makes me feel like I'm playing a children's game and truly reduces the pleasure of playing. Too many 'sort the balls/symbols into their respective colours and spaces' puzzles, all tediously long and frankly excruciatingly boring. Also one of these puzzles crashed the game several times over, so had to skip. Actually I skipped quite a few of these puzzles as I saw no reason to waste my life on being a hamster running forever round his little wheel doing the same thing over and over again. Actually had more fun dipping my shortbread biscuit in my tea and timing how long it took before it crumbled while waiting for the 'skip' button to load. Actually the story wasn't bad, but disappointed about Susan; wow, she is an old biddy now, managing to pull her creaky self out of the chair to go and make cocoa. Kind of insulting really. as I'm quite a bit older than her. Won't be buying any more Five-BN games,
