Collector's Edition of Fantastic Creations: House of Brass costs $13.99. But let's forget about sad and watch a gameplay video at start of our review.
Fantastic Creations: House of Brass starts a new series of HOG, dedicated to the stories and puzzles, connected with the different machinery. Big Fish Games will create this series exclusively, gaining full control on the development process according to the gamers' demands, trying to create a perfect casual game. Let's see, was their brave attempt successful in the first game - Fantastic Creations: House of Brass.
Story of Fantastic Creations: House of Brass Collector's Edition is pretty dramatic. You grown up and live noticing, that there is no references in your family about your grandfather - Edwin Q. Cogglethorpe. It's look like there is some sad story happened, connected with him and your grandmother - Gwendolyn.
When someone accidentally mentioned about Edwin, she always stopped talking and walking away. So your curiosity about your grandpa remaining unsatisfied. And this curiosity set you at the edge of living and death in Fantastic Creations: House of Brass, when you will find a last will of Edwin, sent to your grandmother Gwendolyn. There Edwin written that he is sad and alone, that their home become empty, silent and abandoned without Gwen. He asked her to return, but Gwendolyn ignored this letter.
In the Edwin's letter was mentioned about a firefly, that can lead Gwen to their home. You seen this mechanical firefly before - in your grandma's stuff, half-disassembled. So you find this firefly again, reassemble and recharge it and follow it's flight right to your grandpa's old manor. That's how Fantastic Creations: House of Brass Collector's Edition begins.
Edwin written a password to the door lock in the letter, so you bravely setup it on the lock. Password was written correctly, but unfortunately for you without the necessary maintenance the lock broken and triggers a trap for a unwanted visitors (or thiefs, simply saying). Trapdoor under you opens and you felt into the pipe. And you falling down for a long time.
When you restore yourself after the hard landing in Fantastic Creations: House of Brass you finding yourself in the middle of technogenic labyrinth, full of whimsical and fancy machines, some of them are broken, others - works incorrectly. You will find out that mind of your grandpa, Edwin Q. Cogglethorpe was shaded after your grand-mom leave him, so he build a giant vault for his inventions. For many years Edwin made hundreds of forbidden experiments ahead of his time. He made this in his estate, combining home and laboratory in one place. And when Gwen leave him (he gives twenty hours of his daytime to work, other was divided between wife, food and sleep) Edwin hide the results of his experiments deep underground.
Edwin Q. Cogglethorpe developed complicated anti-theft system to protect his inventions, sometimes being too paranoid. And now you are in the middle of his deadly traps, so your main task for Fantastic Creations: House of Brass is simple: find a way out from this underground vault. To move up you should head your way floor by floor. To move up first you must restore and repair main mechanisms of the floor on each of the floors. This won't be easy, even with the help of your grandpa. Signalization warns him about your crazy arrival and when he find out that you are his grandchild, he start to help you.
Forty years Edwin Q. Cogglethorpe set his inventions on various levels of his vault, forgetting to repair damaged or broken things. So now only few mechanisms are working here correctly, others are doing something, but not the things they are developed for. So the vault in Fantastic Creations: House of Brass is full of grave dangers. House of Brass Game Puzzles are mostly logical - to repair mechanism without some detail you must find this detail (or similar detail) and set it to the right place. But there is funny hidden object scenes, I've seen such scenes only a few times. Usually you have names of objects you are looking for ( a lamp, butterfly, statue, mushroom etc) or silhouettes of those objects. In Fantastic Creations: House of Brass Game you may have only the general direction of searches, for example: "Find objects that spin and turn". Very refreshing.
Most of the mechanisms are working on steam, so you mostly will manipulate the steam-driven contraptions, just like in Depths of Betrayal. You will puzzle through strange inventions of your grandfather, many of them reflects his obsession by your grandma. Will you be able to escape house of brass and see the sunlight once again, or you will stay underground forever? Download Fantastic Creations: House of Brass Collector's Edition and prove the sharpness of your mind!
For now game is available for Windows only Mac users are patiently waiting their turn.
