I have never played this or the original GF. For the most part it got GREAT reviews, most of the less than positive ones were because of frustrating puzzels. I LOVE A CHALLENGING PUZZEL!! Others said it was "buggy?" Just looking for some thoughts. I'd kinda like to give this one a go. THANKS!!

I have the remastered game but haven't yet played it. I did however play the original game which I only found buggy in one area. I really enjoyed the game and highly recommend it.

Thanks Ana. Going to Steam to get it B4 I head into work. After playing all 3 of the Unwritten Tales I was drawn to this one & the reviews on Steam & GB were almost too good to not look into. I LOVED ALL BOUT!! Hoping GF is as good. smile Thanks Again!!

I have a feeling you will love Manny and Glottis and their adventures in the land of the dead! I played both the original and the remastered versions. The remastered one is a joy to behold and even more fun to play.


Gardens put to bed for the winter. Time for some gaming!

I really loved that game. Could the 'buggy' part be where the flaming beavers were? I have the original game and tried replaying it last year on this PC only to never be able to get past that part, while my XP never had trouble with it. I was so disappointed. I've gotten the game from GoG, excited!

It was the conveyor belt. I knew what I was supposed to be doing but it just wouldn't happen. I had to get a saved game sent to me, I believe by MaG.
