The Tale of Doris and the Dragon - Episode 1

Hello guys today we have a review forThe Tale of Doris and the Dragon - Episode 1 . Here we have a good indie, And created by Arrogant Pixel . First of all .

About this game :

The Tale of Doris and the Dragon is an episodic, point-and-click adventure game series featuring an elderly lady named Doris who finds herself in Purgatory after passing away on earth. On her journey, Doris meets many weird and wonderful characters that help or try to hinder her progress. Out of this, an unlikely friendship emerges.

Purgatory - Doris finds herself in a strange land with no hope of returning to the world she once knew. After passing away on earth, our brave heroine must journey through the afterlife in search of her husband, Albert.

Puzzles - On her journey, Doris meets a cast of Underworld natives that aren’t always the most helpful. Solve puzzles and help Doris nag her way through the red tape of Limbo’s middle management.

Peril - You wouldn’t think it, but the After life is a dangerous place. With the help of her new found friends, Doris uncovers a sinister plot which threatens to destroy both life and death itself.

My opinion : The Tale of Doris and the Dragon - Episode 1 appears to be a game first seen on good ol' Newgrounds, bearing a quite short, yet immersive experience of an old lady (who is not immediately aware of their own death, which appeared to happen in possibly sinister circumstances), following her journey through the void and afterlife in hopes of meeting up with her husband once again, this time with updated visuals.

A rather annoyed, yet very helpful british dragon will assist you as much as he can, being able to be called at any time with a phone-like device that you obtain quite early on.

Despite this game being rather short (and there really being only one part you can be stuck at if you lack knowledge in music, even if a specific other item gives you a rhythm), it still shows a bit of humor, especially in the terms of you being an elderly person.

All in all, a quite enjoyable game despite being rather short-lived, easy to pick up and barely any "nonsense-crafting" like in some other Point-and-Click Adventure titles. You shouldn't forget to check the gorgeous artwork of the Steam Trading Cards too, my friend Darklitria has drawn the main menu background as well as these cards!

Score: (7,5/10)
