A wonderful bite-sized adventure game with a couple of puzzle options, though once you head down a certain path the game 'locks' you into it, making certain obvious solutions impossible. Still, the only real drawback is that the game is over just as it starts to get exciting. Highly recommended!

It's hard to pick just one game with all the great games that have been released lately, but this month's pick, Arden's Vale is of such high quality that I simply couldn't overlook it. Superb animation and clever gameplay mean that this is a game you must definitely try out!
We'd love to hear what you think about the game!

This was a really fun little game. I loved the overall feel of the game. The setting was great, and really appealed to my fandom of old Sierra classics. The graphics were beautiful in a low resolution. And the story, while short, was quite nice. Nothing in the game was too difficult or too easy. I also enjoyed the music. Most of all, I liked the humor.
I would play more. I loved that it left off on a little bit of a cliffhanger, hinting at more to come (although I don't expect we will ever see it, it's still nice).
(The download link was dead at the time of this message, I did a Google search to find a download at archive.org.)
Quite surprising. I liked this one. I usually don't like this theme and mood, but this game is very well done.
Very good short game with multiple ways to break the puzzles. Story is not so original, but I really enjoyed this game.
Very, very, very recommended. I truly hope we'll get to see a longer game from Antipus. I'd pay for it!
This game is on the border between good and great :)
Puzzles are just about right, there are good graphics and character animations, and also rather humourous. There is also a goal, a goal that is to get 50 points. Achievable (if you are good at puzzles)
I don't know why anyone would not want to play this.....it is fairly short....music could have been more captivating (but the music still good), can't think of any other drawbacks.
