Plot
In Endless Fables 4: Shadow Within we play the well-known anthropologist Pamela Cavendish. The protagonist returns to her hometown of Mittenwald to solve a childhood puzzle when her friend was kidnapped by a terrifying creature. Years later, however, Hans managed to make contact with his sister Agatha, and his words show that he is trapped in a mysterious world of nightmares. Trying to help her enslaved friend, Pamela must be on her guard as she is followed by an enigmatic, dark figure.
Mechanics
The gameplay in Endless Fables 4: Shadow Within does not differ from what we were accustomed to by the previous installments. Thirty-one locations are waiting to be visited here; we will find twenty-three puzzles whose solution requires the manipulation of encountered items and appropriate use of found objects. Apart from the main story, the game also features an additional adventure, enabling us to learn the history of the Kingdom of Nightmares, where Pamela's friend was born.
Technical aspects
Endless Fables 4: Shadow Within features colorful, two-dimensional graphics. Although it consists primarily of detailed illustrations of individual locations and objects, it also includes nicely made animations and film cut-scenes.
