    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.

    Fairytale Fights is a valiant effort and a game which tries to turn convention upside down. In this regard it certainly succeeds but what we're left with here is a simple game lacking in variety.

    Le déluge d'hémoglobine dans un décor de chiards et avec des **** personnages de contes pour chtit'n'enfants pourra sans doute faire rireLe déluge d'hémoglobine dans un décor de chiards et avec des **** personnages de contes pour chtit'n'enfants pourra sans doute faire rire quelques ados idiots... mais d'ailleurs n'est-ce pas à la fois la cible et le coeur du principe du jeu, à savoir un hack & slash particulièrement crétin ?

    Soit ! mais les graphismes de mauvais goût, le manque de finition et la maniabilité totalement déficiente (à l'image du jeu lui-même) ne sauraient tout excuser. Cela étant, Fairytale machin a au moins fait un heureux : Médor se fait les dents sur le blu-ray et il aime assez, il faut bien l'avouer !    … Full Review »

    Fairytale Fights is a game that could and should have been great, but instead ends up a boring, bargain bin experience that I recommendFairytale Fights is a game that could and should have been great, but instead ends up a boring, bargain bin experience that I recommend passing on. It's got a great premise, take players on a bloody and maturely twisted romp through the world of fairytales with familiar faces and a mature sense of humor. The only problem is it never takes it's ability to be a maturely funny game far enough, all it does is slap some blood and gore on it and call it mature humor. The gameplay itself is also a big disappointment, you basically hack and slash your way through seemingly endless waves of enemies in annoyingly long levels and fight a boss battle that drags on forever, it's all just really repetitive and boring, and it makes the whole game seem much longer than it actually is. The controls are a mess, you do get used to them eventually, however the combat would have been much smoother with a traditional control scheme. The camera is also a big problem it's either zoomed out to far or zoomed in to close making it hard to see yourself among the enemies in the more crowded levels. The game does have some good things going for like great graphics with a cool style and one or two cool levels, and online four player co-op (avoid the arena mode at all costs) but the game is just so boring I really don't recommend this to any gamer, which is sad because this could have been great, hopefully a sequel will be made that gets it right.… Full Review »
