Oh, I'm so excited! This is one which simply would not work on Windows 8!

It is a lot of fun....wonder if they will optimize it for 10?

Well, I figured it was worth a try for the price! I downloaded and it seems to work fairly well. The worst problem was trying to navigate the options menus - my mouse cursor lagged behind terribly. But it seems to work OK in the game. I don't know how much of this is because of my video card or mouse or if it's just the game. I might try to download to my Windows 7 drive and see what happens because it's in the same case and using the same hardware.
oldbroad, in this game you collect fairies and level them up by fighting other fairies. You do need to have some dexterity in making your fairy fly and shoot. Some of the fighting "arenas" are tricky. And some of the fights are very hard later in the game. You need to learn the strengths and weaknesses of each type of fairy and try to match it to an opponent.
It's not hard, but it's not easy either!
