In a far off mystical land lives a young woman who was raised by a powerful alchemist, Lost Grimoires: Stolen Kingdom lets us step into her shoes as she returns home at a very inopportune time. Her land is in chaos under the rule of a seemingly mad king. This hidden object game has a very intriguing story accompanied by fun gameplay and beautiful graphics. Using your knowledge of alchemy, you can create many useful potions to progress in the game. Can the apprentice solve the mysterious around her and bring peace to land once more? Only with your help, of course.
Our heroine returns home from school to the master alchemist that raised her after her mother’s death and father’s disappearance. As if timed by fate, her house is broken into by a masked thief searching for a magical amulet. It’s this event that starts the ball rolling as the story quickly develops into political intrigue and family secrets. I won’t spoil how things turn out, I will say that while some parts are predictable it was all very well written and more in depth than most games in this genre. My only issue with the story was the main villain's motives. While this person wasn’t totally evil and believed the ends justified the means, it didn’t explain why they nearly destroyed the entire kingdom to do it.
