Princess Isabella: The Rise of an Heir

Short version: 55% While the third Princess Isabella game is still the weakest in the series, at least this Steam re-release finally has the bonus chapter, plus trading cards and achievements. Long version: Artifex Mundi tried to spice up their re-release of Princess Isabella 3: Rise of an Heir with their usual achievements and trading cards, but even these additions cannot hide the original issues of the game,...

This is a quite short and repetitive game. The story is cringeworthy (but at least they included the eye of Sauron...) and that the names are simply 'owl', 'fairy' and 'dragon' (really their *names* are that) shows the lack of imagination that went into the game. The presentation shows that the video sequences weren't touched at all (if you play a non 4:3 resolution you'll see what I mean) and the voice acting is...

Princess Isabella: The Rise of an Heir is a re-release of a game of the same title previously available on Steam.

This title is the third in a series of hidden object games centered around a woman named Princess Isabella, however this time you take the role of her daughter Bella. I’ve played the...
