'Long Ago: A Puzzle Tale', Familiar Yet Fresh

Hello everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!

The puzzle gaming genre is maybe one of the hardest gaming genres to make a stand-out title in. In a genre that has been around longer than most, creating something unique is crucial for when stepping into puzzle games. But, that's exactly what today's game has managed to do.

Long Ago: A Puzzle Tale is a short but amazing fantasy based puzzle game by the incredible Grim Talin. The aim of the game is to get through a series of puzzles made up of spheres and mazes, all while there is an amazing story that unravels as you complete more of the game. There are three collectibles that allow you to progress in the game which are coins, blue gems and feathers!



The general feeling of Long Ago: A Puzzle Tale is thought-provoking, yet really relaxing at the same time. I was thoroughly impressed by the voice acting, and the story of the girl locked in the tower is just such a nice story. A huge highlight of the game is also the soundtrack, which is just so simplistic yet amazing. It absolutely adds to the already amazing atmosphere.


I recommend this game for both puzzle game veterans and noobs alike. There's just something so fresh yet familiar to this game that I think you are definitely getting your money's worth out of it. Long Ago: A Puzzle Tale is the kind of game you definitely need to keep an eye out for.

Have a nice day!
