I'm so happy I stumbled across the game. I'm surprised I don't see it mentioned more often. The graphics are simply beautiful, and the gameplay is interesting, engrossing, and is nicely woven into the story. Many of the puzzles are truly challenging and unique.
Drawn: The Painted Tower is just challenging enough without being frustrating. The graphics are beautiful and the puzzles are highly imaginative and relate well to the appealing storyline.
It is a short game. It seems as though the really good games are all short! It's still a pleasure to play and I highly recommend it.
Both I and my 16 year old daughter found this game delightful. The graphics are great. The story is inventive, as is the way the puzzles are put together. It isn't super difficult, but it is hard enough to keep your interest and occasionally stump you for a while. It gives you the option to skip any puzzle, but none are that hard, though some took me a while to figure out.
You are in a magical world where a little princess can make things appear by drawing them. She created, for example, a play of a knight battling a dragon. You have to figure out the play, and how to put it together in the right sequence for it to work. It's presented in the format of a clockwork - inventive, picturesque and fun.
The whole game is like that.
If it had been longer, I'd have given it 5 stars, but it is a little short. What you get, though, is great.
"Really enjoyed playing this game... All in all took an average of 10 hours to complete. Ending was a bit disappointing."
"Probably best for a young "sleuth" but can be played and enjoyed by older people as well."
