"Big Fish Games originally brought Princess Isabella: Witch’s Curse to the PC back in 2008, winning multiple awards, including ‘Top Adventure Game’ at the Annual Great Game Awards. Now it has been translated by Gogii Games and Beast Studios to the smaller Nintendo DS format to show the developers behind some of the poorer PC-to-DS translations how things should be done.", writes Cubed3.
Impulse Gamer - Princess Isabella: A Witch's Curse is a very engaging and almost magical hidden object adventure game that requires the player to read the clues in order to find the hidden objects. Add in a variety of puzzles and even some mini-games and Princess Isabella: A Witch's Curse is not your average hidden object game.
VGC writes, "Isabella was ready to marry Adam once she returned from her trip abroad. Unfortunately, when she arrives home, she discovers that it has fallen prey to a vicious and petty witch who has cursed the castle and everyone in it. The only one to escape the effects of the curse is your companion pixie, and with her help you set foot inside to set things right once again and discover who the witch is and why she chose to curse your family."
With 2009 coming to a close, Neroli takes a look back at the best selling casual PC games of the year, and the upcoming trends in casual gaming predicted for 2010.
Neroli writes, "First, a word on my criteria. For this list, I narrowed it down to games released in 2009, which made it to the top of the best-selling casual game charts, and which spent several weeks in the top 10 on at least one major game portal. Each game includes either an innovative concept or original theme, and all have furthered their respective genres. Most importantly, they are just plain fun to play!
The list is presented in no particular order. These top 10 are hand-picked from games that met the tough criteria listed above, additionally judged on factors like broad audience appeal, quick learning-curve, flexible challenge, and replay value. It was tough picking the best, so I listed all the other great games I considered below, all of which are definitely worth a look for casual gamers."
Plants vs. Zombies is very original, funny, and fun game. Thumbs up to PopCap for such a great game.
