    Mia and the Dragon Princess is a hugely entertaining FMV action game, with great fight scenes and genuinely funny writing.

    Is Mia and the Dragon Princess our favourite FMV game from Wales Interactive and Good Gate Media? Perhaps not, but that’s not to say we didn’t enjoy our time with it. Its story might be ridiculous, but with plenty of action – and a surprising amount of cheesy gore – it kept us highly entertained from start to finish. It’s just a shame that the choices you make can leave you with a half-baked experience that doesn’t truly represent what this story should be.

    In terms of production values and writing, Mia and the Dragon Princess is a standout in Wales Interactive’s FMV-inspired run of games. Unfortunately, it stumbles around its branching narrative device and the story’s pacing and structure can suffer the consequences.

    Mia and the Dragon Princess is cheesy as it should be and brings what is expected from a good FMV, with relevant choices, cartoonish performances and many unexpected consequences. However, it fails to offer an interaction without any inventiveness, in addition to serious continuity problems and, mainly, a script full of potential that never actually comes true, regardless of the chosen ending.

    Mia And The Dragon Princess is another title that can be gorged through like a starving child when he glimpses a box of Celebrations. But unlike Celebrations, it doesn’t have the quantity nor the quality to entice you to keep on feasting, it’ll instead make you feel full all too quickly.

It is not that the game is bad, the art style is fun and the movie in a game is well done. The acting is not as strong in this one and the story choices seem more gamified than a living/breathing part of the game. Overall this is one I will not beat multiple times like others in the genre before it. Expand
