An Accidental Mystery
Fae has many good elements such as the spell building, healing during battle but directions and understanding how to get the best effects are mysteriously garbled even in the help panels. The speed of battle is also a possible problem as there's no time to plan or get the elements needed at a particular moment. All this notwithstanding, the game somehow draws you in and you want to try just one more replay battle. A good take on mach 3 but too coplicated for it's own good. Try it and see if it puzzles you too.

Poor graphics
The game reminds me of something from the early days of game design. Graphics are really poor and seem out of focus, including the font. The matching game is strange: you match only horizontally within a bracket. The game has some interesting story and game play ideas, but it needs a lot more work to match the standards of other Big Fish games. I'm surprised Big Fish even offered it as a release.

Great Game
It seems this game isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I love it. It's a match-3 game but the mechanics are different than what people are used to, since you're limited to side-to-side movement only. It's part match-3 and part role-playing game. You collect various elements for spells and whatnot, then use those against your enemies in order to win a level. I love the storyline and I found the graphics to be very cute.

Challenging blend of RPG action and M3 game
You have gather mode (M-3) and attack mode. There are four main elemental powers - fire, wind, water and earth - and each has a strength and a weakness against another type of element power. Obvious example: water works against a fire strenghened foe . There are many combinations and Claudia (your adventurer) has friendly creatures with powers that help her in her quests and enemies with powers so, the combinations to win battles can get complex. I love the story and the graphics which sort of reminds me of Bookworm Adventures. Very long game.

Strangely new style match 3 game
Just didn't enjoy playing it. Yes, it was unique in that you fought enemies, but didn't enjoy the match 3 part, and it ran slow, and didn't seem to go anywhere fast enough. Would not buy.

Match 3 adventure game gone wrong
Not my cup of tea. Boring story line and way way too much dialogue. All I can say is YUCK

Fun but Clunky
I enjoyed the story line and that there is more to this game than just match three. The adventure and fighting make it very interesting; however, the way it is designed to move between match three and fighting is quite awkward. I will probably buy this game for the story but not until it goes on sale.

Legend of Fae - Don't Bother
Dreadful game.
Lasted only three minutes with this game due to awful graphics - painted cartoon basically.
Far too much to read.
Match three level of expertise required minimal.
Boring and unchallenging.
This game might suit a five year old girl.

Enjoyably different
It was a refreshing change to play this game as most seem to be hidden object ones. Its was a little like playing two games in one.
So far I have only played the 1 hr demo but will definitely be buying the full game.
