You have bee brought to the fantasy world of fairy tales to sort them out after the books had become mixed up. It is Bookend’s fault that Bookwyrm’s fairy tales have become all mixed up and only you can fix it. Bookwyrm is actually a magic dragon who is in charge of five fairy tales: Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Bremen Town Musicians, Snow White and
Jack in the Beanstalk.
At the start of the game, you need to choose one of the six characters and this hero is who will be brought inside the Fairytale land to take care of the mixed up stories.
The graphics of the game is quite captivating and the fact that the fairy tales are familiar to the player can make the game engaging for any gamer. The surroundings are very rich from the forest to the castles. The backgrounds and the whole surroundings have good details that really make the fairy tales alive. The music also adds to the whole atmosphere of the game.
You will be brought inside the Fairytale land and help the main characters of the fairy tales complete their stories. You can help them by interacting with the characters and finding important items that are needed to fix the fairy tales.
The reason the story became all messed up is the Troll Bookend has been stealing things from the fairy tales. He has also been mixing up the stories. The fairy tales become messed up so the prince can not find Cinderella’s stolen slippers, Snow White can not find the dwarves’ home and other problems arise in the story.
It sure helps with the game if you know the five featured fairy tales but if the child is not familiar with the fairy tale then this might be the game to help the child familiarize himself with the well-loved tales. You can also ask Bookwyrm the next step in the game.
With the simple interface, the familiar storyline and the engaging graphics and music, this game is a game that children will truly enjoy.
