Fables from the Den

A very adorable, inspiring collection of stories with a very fitting art style! Very cute, certainly a mood booster!

This review is [b]NEUTRAL[/b] which steam still doesn't allow! Grrrrr. Fables from the Den is a digital children's book. Each story is a fable as the title suggests and so each short story teaches a moral lesson, using woodland creatures as characters. The dialogue is simple and effective. This would make a lovely print book, as the art work is superb. I read each of the stories out loud to my son (this should not take more than an hour even reading out loud slowly). He is too young to understand them yet but enjoys hearing my voice, and I liked reading them. We will be re-visiting this book later on when he can get the full meaning of the stories. They are definitely suitable from a young age, but I can't imagine they have much to offer people who don't have children in their lives unless you are a massive fan of the Shelter artwork and animals. The downside is of course that these are on PC (or TV if you have yours set up that way), which is not an ideal way to read to children. I ...

A 20 minute collection of low effort short story sliders wrapped inside a minimal parallax scene. The concept itself can do better as there is practically none of the expected interactivity, making the Den scene an overglorified selection menu. The static fables are possibly the greatest problem of the title - uninventive and bland. It pains me to be negative about what is otherwise a stylistically cute product, but the experience was forgettable for both me and my daughter.

Hello friends. Welcome to another one of my reviews. This time, i am reviewing this living book. So what is a living book? Basically, a interactive book you can click on and move around the pages. Since this game is basically a book, im not doing a pro and con list, but i will write a small review for a small game. First off, this is a good game for young children, maybe even 4 year old kids would like it since the concepts in it are very good for children. The fables themselves are messeges on each story. I would rank this game as neutral, but since there is no neutral, ill mark it as recommended. I recommend it for young children and parents teaching their children to read in english too.

I know children are the public for this but it should really have been a picture book. The music doesn't add much, there's no narration, it's just a slideshow. Took longer downloading this than reading the stories.

Rating this as neutral. I like the concept of a living book and the execution for this was done well from a technical and artistic stand-point. It's just that the stories are much too short (around 3 paragraphs each) and the writing is classic purple prose; much too overly ornate text, esp given the target audience is young children. It disrupts the narrative flow by drawing undesirable attention to its own extravagant style of writing, ie. excessive use of complex adjectives/adverbs/run-on-sentences. For me, it diminished the appreciation of the stories being told - and I'm a grown adult who LOVES to read; I truly just think this was a poor match-up given the content? A better balance would have been simpler writing, but a longer story w more pages and w more illustrations. The art style is pleasant to look at, so kudos to the illustrator; they carried this. Side note: imo the text & pictures should be re-sized larger. There's too much white space after looking at this on my large pc...

Little Collection of (really) short Storys. The main target audience are children i guess but if you love the artstyle of the Shelter-Games you will love this little collection aswell. Worth a buy? If you really love the Shelter games, yes. If you like short storys with a lovely Artstyle, sure but you might want to buy it when its on sale (like i did)

The little storys are really cute, it has a 2d shelter style, Its very cute i reccomend it for children, but adults would probobly enjoy it.

Cute book, I love how every story has its own uniqueness to it but explains an important life lesson.

This review is neutral. 15+ min to complete, Fables from the Den has 9 short stories with two art styles, watercolor and the pattered style Might and Delight is known for. Each story has a moral and is told by a different animal, with others commenting on it after it’s finished. While cute, it doesn’t have enough content to justify a $7 price tag, so get it on sale.
