Mixed-Up Fairy Tales

1991
Adventure
A charming point-and-click adventure, the game's strength lies in its playful subversion of expectations. Mixed-Up Fairy Tales delights in twisting classic stories, tasking players with solving puzzles that require a degree of lateral thinking; the solutions are often delightfully absurd. Its hand-drawn art style and whimsical writing create a world that's genuinely inviting, rewarding curiosity and experimentation at every turn.

About Mixed-Up Fairy Tales

View Game Details
Bookend has been mixing up Bookwyrm's fairy tales and you have to set things right by aiding well known fairy tale characters such as Cinderella and Snow White. To set things right, you will need to go around acquiring objects, such as Jack's magical beans, to give to Jack so that he can raise a beanstock. The game is designed with younger gamers in mind, and features a simple VGA interface with two actions, "Do" and "See"; rather than the full hidden icon bar used in other Sierra games.
