The mechanics improved since their last SH game even though I was sometimes still confused as to how certain things were supposed to work.

Not a fan of kids in games, so all soon as that little goblin was introduces I knew I had to save her at SOME point...I'm just glad, I was wrong about the parentage of the kid.

I had the feeling they really wanted me to like her but I just couldn't. She was too saccharine for my taste and had nothing to add to the story. She was there so we have an emotional connection to what happened in the last act.
Couldn't care less about her :/ But it's hard to make me care about any child character so this one had the odds stacked against her from the very beginning.

The game also ends rather suddenly which robbed me of a satisfying ending scene. A quick voice over to what exactly happened after the last scene would have been nice. :/

All in all, I had fun playing this game. :)
