    This game is a beautiful 2D side scrolling game. The game is over flowing with bright eye popping colors, to the point of vomiting at times, but that is the point. The game is basically a 2D Hack and Slash, not worth $60, but well worth a rent or a pick up at $40 or below. The game design has depth upon depth, which is interesting and frustrating at the same time. You will want to go This game is a beautiful 2D side scrolling game. The game is over flowing with bright eye popping colors, to the point of vomiting at times, but that is the point. The game is basically a 2D Hack and Slash, not worth $60, but well worth a rent or a pick up at $40 or below. The game design has depth upon depth, which is interesting and frustrating at the same time. You will want to go places you can not, and die in places that seem solid. Camera work can be wonky at times. The weapons collection is nothing more then a grind to continually find new and improved weapon. At first I was quite disappointed, and I thought I would only play for 20 mins, 3 hours later I was shocked at how long I played. I just could not put the controller down. The wacky story and crude humor was enjoyable, and the in game cut scenes of your dismemberment's were quite enjoyable though they loose their impact over time. There is a meaty and long game under all the candy glam graphics. Just don't look for twist or turns in the story, just like a Mario Bros game. Well worth a Rent, but not worth a purchase at the steep price, rent or wait till $40 or below Thanks :)… Expand

    Bad taste, bad gameplay, an immature take on a solid genre. Not worth a download for a few euros

    I found this game cheap and I though "NAH what the heck" to find out the exact reason they put it down to that price anyway. This is rarely a game anyway. This is a horrible science project, that the only way to stop it was to, split it apart, burn it into disc´s, sell them to around the world.

    This game seems cute and adorable the world looks Smooth and nicelly rounded unlike other games sharp walls but characters look extremely ugly, but the game play gets borring at times the big element in the game is the Gore and killing, it has a nice taste in Classical music but the big downside is the game becomes borring to easily its a nice game "FOR THE GORE." pretty much..

    Monotonous, repetitive, slippery controls, padded to the point of painful and completely unnecessary. Teabagging a bear trap would be more enjoyable.

    The game has a unique graphic style and gives you the possibility to kill cute creatures in a brutal way. With more players on the couch the game comes to its full potential, but at the same time it could be very chaotic on the screen. The biggest downfall is that the gameplay is mostly the same throughout the game and there aren’t many checkpoints. But if you take your time to glide on a massive pile of blood, all will be quickly forgotten.

    There are clearly some talented people at Playlogic - notably whoever did the endearing cut-scenes, which play out like Hanna-Barbera doing The Matrix. How something so colourful and quirky became so bland is a mystery of the creative process.

    Fairytale Fights digs an attractive concept because of its unpolished and boring gameplay.
