    It's the good old: point and click, escape the room type of puzzle game but fairy tale references. Some really good puzzles to make you think and make you feel like a genius when you manage to solve them. With what appears to be 3 endings (with some variations depending on what you did to solve the final puzzle of each area) you'll stroll through some areas to get hints, get items, sometimes avoid the big bad wolf…

    The story is fun and the gameplay is solid. The biggest problem Scarlett Hood, as mentioned by many reviews before this, is the game does not explain or give enough clues to solve many of the problems. This is a real problem when you advertise the game as a puzzler. Playing becomes a lesson in frustration as you scour the level for details on how to solve a problem, only to turn to Youtube to find the solution.
