Living Legends: The Frozen Fear Collection

Terrific long games, and excellent value for lovers of hidden-object adventures!

Living Legends: Ice Rose

An excellent casual point-and-click adventure, with plenty of good hidden-object scenes and puzzles.

The point-and-click work is especially well thought out. If you play it on hardcore mode and avoid using the hint button or the strategy guide, you will be delighted by problems that can be solved with practical logic and careful observation. Too many games in this genre don't take this aspect seriously enough, but Living Legends delivers.

The story won't amaze you, but it's a bit less predictable than may appear at first. The graphics and sounds are very good, consistent, and match the crafted atmosphere of the story world.

There is no voice acting in this game, but I prefer that to the terrible voice acting that so many games in this genre have.

Living Legends: Frozen Beauty

As good as Ice Rose, though this time enhanced with voice acting (it's OK), improved animations, collectible coins and achievements, and a cute "companion" that doesn't do much, but is, well, cute.

Note that it's not exactly a sequel, though there is some thematic continuity from the first game.
