Based on demo: I have greatly been anticipating this game, and was not disappointed. I am pleased to see that though the company has changed/merged – the quality, beautiful graphics, amount of collectibles, and intriguing storyline have not - and Immortal Love games remain a favorite.

The game was an adventure from the word “go”. Story immersive, and had me eager to proceed to see what would happen next. I did not want to quit at demo’s end. The artwork is lovely, the music their trademark accompaniment, also lovely – the gameplay fun. Mini games provided a bit of challenge, a bit of thought, but were not too difficult - exactly as I like them. Same with HOS, which held an interesting variety.

The gimmick used worked with story and fit in well – a coveted artifact (which the order that is hunting you wants) and which you feed crystal tears to, received throughout game. It tells a portion of backstory plot with each tear, but then goes a step further providing a HOS where you must determine what the next step should be in your quest after finding the list items shown. A nice bit of variety there, which led to the next step in progression of game and was in keeping with the adventure.

Morphs (2 per scene) were interesting, in that they stayed in each state between 10 seconds and 25 seconds (with a 1 second changeover), the number always changing – so it made it more of a hunt to seek them out. I liked that. They were a challenge to find, in that the objects resembled each other in shape and size, sometimes color – nicely done! (I enjoy hunting for my morphs and not just having them blink at me like rapid neon lights when I enter a scene.) The transparent animals (also 2 per scene) blended in well. Collectibles are always a treat with this series. There is no option to go back and collect them post game, but with a sidebar showing how many are left in each scene and a jump map also showing any missing ones not yet picked up, it's easy to clear area of all collectibles before moving on and having previous scenes blocked.

Perhaps the only thing I would change/ask for – is a journal. One of the mini games required you to remember a name from one of the notes previously read – and I couldn’t, (perhaps because I was so sucked into gameplay at the time. lol) I tried different combinations, finally coming up with the right one, but it would have been nice to look in a journal for notes kept there to see it.

And now, I’m off to buy this fun and lovely Valentine - I recommend trying the demo to see if Immortal Love is for you as well! Show less

I recommend this game!

Wow, I do love games from this developer and this one is another testament to what I find excellent. In this latest Immortal Love game there is a beautiful love story that has a returning young sea Captain returning to claim his beloved Bella, only to find her missing under strange circumstances. As he searches for his beloved, he is helped by a magical amulet that might have its own agenda. Will the amulet help reunite him with his beloved?

At this point I need to say that I love dogs and own my own little pack of canines BUT I really, really wish that the developer would stop doing the huge tongue lick at the beginning of some of its games when we first encounter our canine pal. I mean, this is really disgusting, and I close my eyes for a minute until the dog backs off. I don’t let my own dogs lick my face and I certainly don’t want to see it in a game! Okay, rant over for now.

The HOS in the game are very well designed and all of them seem to be very creative. Even the puzzles are well integrated into the game. I far prefer the HOS to the puzzles although the ones in Stone Beauty are very entertaining and are certainly not brain drains. In fact, most of the game seemed to flow well and seemed quite relaxing. I absolutely enjoyed everything about Stone Beauty and think it is an excellent game. Of course, this is only my opinion and I don’t expect everyone to agree with me.

The Immortal Love games have always been some of my favorite games and this one is no exception. Stone Beauty might not be the best in the series, but the games now are shorter so it’s difficult to compare it with the some of the older and longer games. Even though the game is not overly long it still is a quality game. This developer has always created excellent games and Immortal Love Stone Beauty continues that tradition. I purchased the game as soon as it was ready for download and I did not regret it. Although it is a perfect game for me and the way I like to play, please try the demo to see if it is a game that you will enjoy as well. Happy gaming! Show less

The presentation is powerful - many hues and colours, the story line is exclusive and interesting - see other reviews - but not 100 percent believable. The maps are good but I was disappointed by the small playing area, but to make up for that the games are quite intense and 4 friends put games where others don't - they crop up unexpectedly, and that's okay except it does pause the action too frequently. I liked the game very much but I'm not sure you'd want to spend the extra money on a collector's edition. I'm rating this 4 stars but I'd give the ordinary edition 5 stars. Show less

It was a nice feature in the Living Legends, but not it spreads to other games of this developer, and this is a sign that they rely too much on what worked well in the past and are not innovative anymore. So please... no more of this and i love your work just as i used to. Show less

I like the scenes, hops, morphs and collectibles more than I liked the story. It's beautiful. Your in Italy. The décor is olives with the leaves, grapes with grape leaves and geraniums. I would stop and just take in the illustrations.

I didn't like the dog lick or the dog actions mini-game. I didn't like the animal silhouette hops or associated pairs hops. At least they put these hops in the guide. I didn't like the last mini-game. I'm tired of masked men. I liked every thing else.

The map has actions available, tasks, achievements and notes. Trial ends at the end of chapter 2.

Collect two per scene of animals and morphs, 54 each. After you collect all of the animals in the bonus area they have collection. They have five animals you can touch and they will move. It will have play. This is a small silhouette hops where you find parts. I was disappointed with the silhouette small pieces. I would have preferred a beautiful picture with a list of whole items. It is replayable but I won't.

The bonus chapter you are working at the sculpting school and there is a cute fox like golem.

It has more Info on the main page which has the strategy guide (so you don't have to start the game in case you are counting up the morphs like I did). It also has credits and our games which list all of 4 Friends/Friendly Fox games and all in the series. Immortal Love, Living Legends, Edge of Reality, Dark City and Bridge to Another World.

Replay 13 hops, 13 mini-games, 6 music, 29 movies.
The concept art has the draft pictures and when you roll over them you can see the finished product. 8 wallpaper. 6 beautiful screensavers. 5 Chapters + Bonus. Show less

I recommend this game!

Completed Game approximately 4.5 hours
(including completion of all mini-games & CE Bonus Chapter)
19 Scene Locations +8 CE Bonus Chapter
Difficulty Range: Beginner

Cesare was the most talented Sculptor in Italy and it was an honor if you were chosen as his model because you had to enter and win his beauty contest first. Unfortunately, those beautiful models seemed to have all vanished into thin air, could the infamous Cesare be using a taboo ritual to create beautiful sculptures that come to life?

Collectibles/Morphing Objects: (CE version only)
Each scene has 2 of those famous 4Friends Opaque Collectibles that are really well-blended into the scenery and one of my personal favorite collectibles overall. (my all-time favorite CE feature are non-linear morphs from the original DP series) There are 54 Opaque Animals which unlocks 5 Porcelain Animal Figurines when you find 5-10-24-45-54 Opaque Animal Figurines. Each scene also has two Morphing Objects, some of which are very well-hidden and challenging to spot at first glance. There is an available pull-out Tab on the left side that tells you how many morphs & collectibles remain in each scene.

Gadget/Helper:
How many tears must I cry? This is one of those features that everyone went crazy on when 4 Friends first offered the gadget that required a tear. Personally, I LOVED the Dragon Gadget offered in a previous game because...well, who doesn't like baby dragons? He wrapped around your wrist and revealed a story with each scale replaced, and every game in every series by this developer now has the same scenario with a gadget that requires Tears, crystal tears, ruby tears, sapphire tears, emerald tears, dragon tears, gargoyle tears, eye of newt tears, you get the picture, right? This time the gadget is named Eve and her super-powers allow her to bestow life itself. Once again, Eve requires a Tear of Perfection to bestow her super-powers upon its master, whomever it may be. You will feed Eve 5 Tears during the game (Carlo-Lucia-Miner-Bella-Ricardo) to hear a backstory and play a small HO scene and interact with various items in the room

Hidden Object Scenes:
There are 22 Hidden Object Scenes +7 in the CE Bonus Chapter. The scenes are clear and located in interesting locations, and the objects are fairly well-hidden There are Interactive List Finds, Silhouetted Shape Finds, Keywords in Sentence Finds, Replace Items, and Spot the Difference Finds available. There are no alternate puzzles offered.

Mini-Games:
There are 19 Mini-Games +4 in the CE Bonus Chapter. The games are on the easy-side of the spectrum with a high percentage of them being simple puzzle variations such as placing picture fragments, dragging vertical strips or turning disk segments.

Bonus Chapter: (CE version only)
Oh boy, it's going to be one of those days where nothing goes right. You are creating an exquisite sculpture of a gargoyle when it unexpectedly comes to life. You are accused of a taboo crime and go on the lam to figure out what went wrong and clear your name. This is an average-length Bonus Chapter that takes place over 8 Scene Locations and you will continue searching for the final 16 Opaque Animal Figurines and 16 Morphing Objects which will unlock the final Porcelain Animals in your collection.

Collector's Edition Version Extra's
8 Wallpapers, 28 Concept Art Pictures, 6 Screensavers, 6 Music Soundtracks, 34 Movie Video Cutscenes, 20 Achievements (10 achievements are available in 3 category progressions) 13 Replayable Hidden Object Scenes, 13 Replayable Mini-Games, 54 Opaque Animal Figurines (2 per scene) 54 Morphing Objects (2 per scene) 5 Main Chapters +Bonus Chapter and a Built-In Strategy Guide.
