Fantasy Beauties Switch Review
Somequest, makers of the Beauties Unveiled games, has come out with Fantasy Beauties, a jigsaw game with a twist. You get a jigsaw board and an empty space will light up. At the top are six pieces. You have several seconds to put in the correct piece. What’s nice is, you can actually place any piece, not just the one being lit up and it’ll count. As you put in pieces, your powerup meter will fill. First it will fill to auto-put one piece, then three pieces, then five. Fail to put a piece in time, the meter will reset and the pieces at the top will change. When you complete the picture in Fantasy Beauties, you get stars based on if you completed it and how fast you did it. You can always look at the completed picture by pressing Y.
Fantasy Beauties is a fine little game, except there is a little problem. The DLC. Yes, there are already six DLC beauties to download(with three boards each). Three are free, three are two dollars each. They all should be free and in the game to start with it. There is no real excuse for this and I see it as slimy. I’m imagining somequest is going to do the RedDeer Model and release bundle after bundle. Let’s hope not, as they didn’t do it for previous games, but I put nothing past them or any developer anymore. Therefore, I will dock a point from the score, giving Fantasy Beauties a Recommended with a seven back-end score. The game is good and even addicting to a certain extent, but the developers sinking to scummy levels just does not sit right with me, especially when the game is priced at twenty dollars base.
Overall: Fantasy Beauties is a fine little jigsaw puzzle game, but the pricing and DLC doesn’t sit well with me.
Verdict: Recommended
