So as you know I live in Iran and the corona virus has succesfully found it's way to our country and life is weird the only real contact I have with the outside world is through my laptop . Has this devilish thing made it to your country or not and if it has how is life ?

So , I was browsing the web and I found this interview with Hitch , it is really awesome( There are some dirty jokes though , watch it if you don't mind) :  

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvNla9-u6xM&t=435s

On Monday I watched an austrailian horror film called The Babadook and I absolutely loved it , it is genuinely scary at parts ,it has great character development and the film has an important lesson with a lot of symbolism and food for thought  also no jumpscares  . I can't recommend it enough , if you like horror films with great stories  or if you dislike them because you think they are mindless pieces of entertainment then go watch it , it changed my opinion about what a horror film can be , I have watched only 2 other horror films ( those being the two Conjuring films, ) , I am not ready to call it a masterpiece yet but it may very well be a masterpiece , what horror films or films in general did you like ? feel free to talk about them , at the moment I am obssesed with The Babadook . If you know any films you consider masterpieces please share them down below .( If I convinced  you to watch The Babadook , just be warned that despite the film's silly name this may not be an easy watch. If you don't like seeing a dysfunctional family with a depressed mother who has a difficult son on screen or if you get scared easily then this film is not for you )

Ok, this is totally random (actually a lot of my posts are), but I had to ask this to you: does anyone here have/had dreams with DP?

Years ago, when I was in High School, I dreamt that I was having classes, however, the building was in a forest pretty much like the Black Forest. I sat near one of the windows. Suddenly, a hand appeared, much like James' hand, showing me both sides of a paper, although I can't remember if it had something written in it (and I remember this dream cause I just had joint the Fandom, so my "addiction" was at high levels).

Last night, I had another dream. This time, I was at Snow White's castle, in a room with a lot of shelves filled with various things and keys of all sort. I took a strange board; in it, there were figurines of six witches, one of them being the Evil Stepmother (I don't remember the others, sorry) and, at its feet, symbols/remniscents to represent them. So I spoke to SW and told her to take that thing out before someone fell victim of a spell and she gave me a crystal key and I went to a portal. And... End of the dream.

I just wanted to share this.  

I'm not even sure if it'll be this post after the 3-week long hiatus, but...

It's been a while. I don't even know if this will help, but as long as you can, please do message me about what's happening.

Anyways, please refer to the following statements given below.

Making this partially because I can and partially because I have a sudden question.  What do you guys think will win in a fight: a xenomorph or the Zeta Metroids from Metroid: Samus Returns?  My bet's on the Zeta because of its moves which include: flamethrower breath, firing green acid/orb thingies, and when it's on the ceiling it shoots a series of fireballs or acid balls. (You can watch people fight them on Youtube to get a feel of how it attacks)

Any an all other metroid related things can also be added/discussed here.  There is a Metroid wiki, but I can't find the comment section.

Well, it's my anniversary-in-a-row today.

Whew. Can't believe I'm getting through this far.

Okay... I sincerely thank all of you guys for striving this community. Everything is what it seems even during my visits. I have been so honored to be part of this community and I can't wait for another year of everlasting fun!

Well, today marks the end of my 365-day attendance routine. Next stop, another 365.

Cheers!

I just uploaded my first video yesterday .  Here it is , hope you like it :

Guys, I know this picture is already on the Wiki, however I wanted to post the fullt post (sorry for this) from BTG's tumblr.

If you pay attention at the tags, we have that those cards and rhymes are a part for the new game from Cursery, which will feature lemons, oranges and... Marie Anna...

But what really called my attention whas this "Game of hope". With some research, I found out a book of some sort called "Primal Lenormand - the Game of Hope", a kind of manual about how to read the original tarot cards from Madame Lenormand.

The cards were 36 and its also called Romani Tarot (free translation). This is very interesting because we already had Romani references from Fabled Legends, so its the second time they used it. Also, I discovered that Madame Lenormand's true name was Marie Anna. 

About oranges and lemons, I found a nursery rhyme called Oranges and Lemons : Its lyrics are related to a lot of churchs and Saints, so it's fair to assume we'll have this in the game and, also, it speaks directly with the image we see. BUT there's is one more thing: this rhyme had an earlier version that appears in The Only True Mother Goose Melodies , a book I believe BTG is probably using for the rhymes.

The earlier version says the following: 

Two sticks in an apple,

Ring the bells of Whitechapel.

Halfpence and farthings,

Say the bells of St. Martin’s.

Kettles and pans,

Say the bells of St. Ann’s.

Brickbats and tiles,

Say the bells of St. Giles.

Old shoes and slippers,

Say the bells of St. Peter’s.

Pokers and tongs,

Say the bells of St. John’s.

The meanings I still have no idea about it... However, with this, maybe we can assume that either we'll have an original tarot card by Mother Goose in this game or that the Game of Hope can be used to read those tarot cards on BTG's Newsletters. Also, in other hand, we'll probably see a lot of churches and bells, so it'll be a game about different cultures together? Idk. 

In any case, let me know what you think. 

The year is about to come to a close. I really want to thank you all for your presence in the wiki, we spent different times together: taking our anger on Blue Tea Games for their delays of DP14, disappointing for DP15 with Eipix's return, and reviewing both games which turned out to be so decent, especially DP14 which is the only quality game in 2018 in the middle of the cookir cutter floods. This year has been crazy for all of us side by side and is considered by me as huge stepping stone for Dark Parables as the series welcomes two new extremely likeable characters into the Saga: Brigid and Giselle, and presented more richly developed characters and welcomed them in the series like Mercy, Frau Holle, the Royal Advisor, Nuada and Serafina. I wish Blue Tea Games would throw a surprise on us in 2019 with their games and welcome more characters into the Saga and get spend more time closely together.

I'm going to do an analysing for what is happening around us in the market. By now, those keeping eyes everywhere have spotted a problem: the change of management of BigFish Games, and many impacts are visible and present because of this like:

1- in case you didn't notice: the Affiliation and sales page NO LONGER displays the game of the sale, all you see now is the sales themselves..

Before: we used to have the sale displayed like this.."Dark Parables bonus sale"

Now: the page only displays: "bonus sale"

And that's not a good thing, we will no longer be able to determine a release date for Dark Parables so easily, in other words, except that you can check which sale you love is coming in the future, the sales page is useless now for determining a release date for any game.

2- BigFish Games no longer posts the upcoming games of the week ( A.K.A: the Monday sneak peak ) and this put salt on the injury for us, we no literly and figuratively know nothing about the game that is coming tomorrow or the day after tomorrow except to follow the YouTube channel of BFG and expect them to post a trailer for the coming game. Hard Times coming now folks if a Dark Parables game is drawing nearer and we are hungry for a specific release date, GOD NO!!!! I don't want that moment to come but it's coming sooner or later, what makes it more frustrating is the fact that some people NEED a release date in order to start saving money for a said game to purchase easily, now imaging if you're out of money and the game is suddenly thrown in your face, I really hope that Blue Tea Games will present a specific release date themselves like they did with DP14, nothing is expected from Eipix as they really want to be mysterious and claiming that there are developers involved in DP16 and that they have no information whatsoever when chances are 60% that they are prominently involved in the project itself lol.

3- unbelievable Bizarre Glitches are majorly present in Eipix's games ( and likely all other games from other devs ) the latest Eipix game, Memoirs of Murder, involved a glitch poping up in the middle of a Puzzle for all the people. Dark Parables 15 involved same glitches, we all agree by now that we thought we were goners when we couldn't take the brush in the Garden world in the window where we see Giselle's broken heart, like..."How the @&#%&&∆•#3£&@#%&√∆~[©℅$}^¶÷~√|°=¥$ did that slip past the tests rounds, same with the Puzzle to defeat Giselle, the engine of the game is broken when the Puzzle starts, haven't anyone from the test team ever felt curious and the NEED to try to skip this puzzle, or they didn't even realize the engine was broken in the first place. Another thing I disliked is the last puzzle to defeat Prince Julian and based on the walkthrough of the Sapphire Panda, if you skip that puzzle, Giselle won't appear beside the Detective to destroy the flame of illusion and thus Julian's beautiful sequence of "GISELLE WHAT HAVE YOU DONE" is deemed useless and not making any sense as you don't see Giselle do anything and the actions that cased me to extremely like her are omitted: her bravery to embrace death to put a stop to the evil fearlessly. And these Glitches are called bizarre because they surprisingly slipped pasts tests rounds for the ability to easily run into them. And the only rational conclusion by me for these Glitches to occur is: the games aren't being tested before their release, and yes the only rational explanation for these glitches to slip past the tests is the fact that no tests were conducted in the first place, if that's the case, you know what's coming.. *sigh* ( P.S: if anyone of you were notified for an update for dp15, I would like you to tell me )

4- With heavy heart, I say sorry for all our friends who abruptly aren't able to continue their fun with playing games because BigFish games decided to no longer port their games on mobile phones, I really know how you feel by now, but I urge and recommend you to get a PC; believe me, even if BigFish games didn't make that choice, the decision was actually obvious and predictable to come if you look closely; updates are being frequently released for mobile phones, and the trouble is: every released update deems a group of specific games completely useless for the Group's inability to adjust with newer phone update, imagine what more frequent updates do if one update is capable of doing this! And this would force developers to look back on all of their games frequently to adjust these games on newer devices, imagine how much time this would waste from the developers, especially small developers like Blue Tea Games. And Bigfish games not doing anything about it but one solution, and if you realized this early, you could see their decision coming long before they announce it, sorry for saying this, but this decision work for the devs' side as instead of being divided into two with the first half to start developing a new game and the second to port an existing game into other devices, devs now simply complete a game and shift into the next game in the series with all of them working on games to complete it faster with all devs involved instead of being divided. I really recommand you to get a new PC, if you are a casual gamer only, it gets much easier to afford a PC that will run these game as smooth as possible, for these games doesn't require extremely high specs. And by joining PC players, you become the first priority of Bigfish games to join the audience where their released games are seemingly meant for PC audience first and urges you to not waste more money on phone Bigfish games as the games will quickly be outdated by newer frequent updates with little to a whole CONFIRMATION that these games aren't going to be updated unlike PC games where it's the first priority for devs to target. Again, I'm so sorry friends and really wish you can join us sooner than you think. :)

So, I follow BTG on Tumblr and they post a lot of interesting things there. Yesterday, they posted this:

On the post, they even say "Guess what it could be".

Judging by the symbols, I'd say it's a puzzle from DP 4, where you take the silver moon part to access the hideout.

Although it's random, it's really funny to see how they think about these things. 

Ok guys, I'm probably overthinking, but...

This was a description on a Tumblr post by BTG. Althought it's been a while they're posting these symbols, just today I stopped to look better at it.

The first things is: a snowflake can be a Halloween/Witch Symbol? Then I remembered that the Snow Queen some times is referred as a witch... I mean, in DP 7, Gwyn refers to Snow White's eagle as her familiar and just witches have familiars... And even she's no more the Snow Queen, well, the reference still applies.

Also, the spider could be a symbol for the Spider Witch; the lollipop, for the Evil Witch; the ghost, for the Evil Godmother (once she was already dead when we found her). 

However, I couldn't find meanings for the skull, the candy and the pumpkin -- but, if you saw BTG's post about the "Season of the Witch", probably it has something to do with DP 15. 

What do you guys think?

Hello everyone! I finally got a moment away from school to talk to all of you for a second!

So, I read Blue Tea's new newsletter, and although it wasn't extremely interesting, we did learn a lot more about little creatures called Flower Spirits. I personally really like them, and I think there are a lot of cool things we could do with them! I'd like to make crafts with them some point -- paper petals, wooden body, paint, and it could work a little like wind chimes! I also have lots of other ideas for these things, but for now, I'd like to share with you some of my sketches. 

So, if you're unfamiliar, here's an image of the first five flower spirits Blue Tea showed us:

Anyway, I've taken quite a liking to these little guys, as you can tell! So, I thought I'd flex my creative muscles a bit and make my own! Here are my first attempts at recreating what we see here:

Here we see the Rosy Red, the Yellow Tulip, and the Lily Blue varieties (sorry for the weird image flip, you can click to see it properly)

So here I just looked at the reference image above. Nothing too special.

So here's the next set! Sorry again about the formatting. But here we have the next two we're shown: Crimson Poppy and Lilac Violet. Nice, right? Now, the other's I'm super proud of are the White Jasmine and the Peach Pink. These two we know exist, as Blue Tea gave us a name for them.  I thought I'd try making them, and I really like them! What do you think? (Peach pink is based on peach blossoms, not the actual fruit)

Next are two of my own design: Radiant Sunflower and Enchanted Moonflower. The sunflower radiates positivity and can take your sadness away for awhile. The moonflower empathizes with you, embraces your sadness, and comforts you if you need it. Sometimes, though, it lets its own sadness and fear sneak through.

So, what's next, you ask? Well, you'll see!

Lastly (for now) we have these four beauties! Up top there's the Gold Dandelion, made specifically for Lionstar16 (get it? Lion? Dandelion? Close enough), and next to that we have a slight variation of a lily... wait... is it holding... a SWORD? Yep, that's right! It is a Sword Lily, made especially for SwordLily! This one is a fighter right up until the end, while the dandelion cheers people on and encourages them to do great things!

The flower queen you see is modeled after a queen flower, which is what you see if you look up "queen flower" online. It should be the first result. The flower design is seen in her cape back and her head petals.

Lastly, there's a snowdrop for TFCBelloni! I figured since Elsa and Jack is his profile picture, snowdrop should be close enough. I hope they all look alright!

I will be adding one for Abdallah Ali, AmethystPearl, Scribe of Mysteries, and anyone else who wants one. In the thread below, please tell me what you think and what flowers you'd like me to make next!

Okay... that takes a long time than I can imagine...

I doubt many people will be interested in this, but I've seen a few of these in other wikis. So I thought "why not make one for DP?". The title makes it obvious, so let's begin. For me, I'll be using villains who apparently are irredeemable since villains who are redeemable usually were influenced by outside factor.

Gluttony - Evil Witch since she eats children. Not much to explain.

Greed - I would have picked King Eurig, but he seemed to regret his actions. There are so many others (like King Oberon or Landowner), but why not have the Blue Tea Thief himself? That's right. Rach Neumann. He attempts to steal the treasure for himself before dying.

Envy - Mother Gothel. She is envious of the Guardians' youth and immortality. Further backed up when she became the Wicked Witch of the West.

Sloth - In my opinion, sloth was very hard since there wasn't anyone who are lazy. But the closet one I would pick would be Queen Valla. She let the stags do the attack for her and made Leda turn everyone into gold for her.

Pride -  The Royal Advisor. For someone who tried using magic to help benefit her family, I can imagine her having lots of pride in herself. You could say that she is also wrath since she sworn revenge against Solwood (and apparently the entire world), but that anger seemed to come from her broken pride of being exiled from the clan. Plus, Mercy has that same thought process as her, so we can assume that her vice is pride.

Lust - Not a lot of lustful people, but Bluebeard. He has four wives, but was completely obsessed with Thalassa.

Wrath - Rasputin. He crashed the wedding and was very destructive with the old Snowfall Kingdom. Plus, he wished for the death of others.

What about you guys? Who do you think match the sins more? Or do you want to do the virtues instead?

So, this image was posted on BTG's tumblr yesterday:

This picture made me curious because BTG's posts on Tumblr usually depicts scenes or characters from their games and, in most part of the times, they make edits like this . Going with this, we have that this image probably came from their projects as well; it's noticeable a part of a larger scenario -- but from which one? I don't remember any DP having a broken robbot (not until DP 14) and the same goes for their other games.

My point is: could it be a BTG new project? Could it be a scene from DP 15? Or am I getting crazy and this is just a normal picture?

Ok, so, umm... I didn't expect this to happen, and I'm kind of embarassed by it, but... I need to be honest with you.

I haven't been myself lately. I've been trying to let this on gently, but She was looking for me. She could track this back to me. 

It's best to start at the beginning, I guess.

So, to tell the truth... my recording for the beta didn't fail. It couldn't record.

As soon as I started the game, I felt... weird. Before I knew it, I was on fire... and they were blue flames! I instantly thought of the Match Girl in the teaser of DP14 -- but it couldn't be real, could it?

Regardless, I fell out of the sky and found my computer nearby. It was almost completely destroyed... but still usable. I was in a moonlit world with flowers and trees I'd never seen. But before I could think about anything, I heard Her: "If you don't want to be here forever, you'd best run." She laughed an evil, childish laugh. So I ran. I've been there -- HERE, rather -- ever since.

I managed to finish the demo of the game on my computer, and with my findings, I was able to discuss with you all. All those times I've been busy, I was running. Running from the Match Girl, for after playing the beta, I knew it was her. I must be in her garden -- but I wasn't safe.

She found me today. As I type this, she watches my every move. She moderates everything, and this is all a little game to her. I'm trapped to be her plaything for who-knows-how-long. She makes me do her chores, she won't let me eat, and she's enchanted me so I can't sleep. All I have is you for outside contact.

She even changed my profile picture and hexed my computer to the point where I can only access the wiki and say certain things. But she has a game for you. And please, I beg of you, play along! Play along to free me! But be wary... she's not trusTWOR

Hehehe, I guess I let him say too much, didn't I? But he'll be excellent for my entertainment! Oh, it gets so lonely here, in my Garden. I don't appreciate so many people talking about me behind my back. That's just rude!

He won't be able to respond for awhile, haha! Not like he needs to. He's said enough already. And with all the bad things he, and ALL of you, have said about me, you'll all pay. But in due time. For now, I have a game.

I've been watching all of you, all by connection of WORTHLESS people who think they have the right to tell our stories, the TRUTH, in mere games! Mortals don't understand that fables are real. And we aren't as little as you might think. Regardless of that, just remember I know everything about you. And you haven't even scratched the surface of my suffering. But it's not my place to tell :)

Here's the game: he'll be able to access this restricted account until you can solve all the riddles. If you, as a community, know "Carson" well enough, and are smart enough in mortal games, I'll give him back! For now...

So take a free clue to start this chain of riddles. Find the phrase from the clue, follow the path, solve the riddles. And don't try to pull any funny business... I'll be watching.

So , I disappeared again , I think if I continue I can safely change my name into Harry Houdini :D so let me tell you what happened, I was playing Rite Of Passage 3 one day and my laptop crashed at the final boss fight and it was a crappy corei3 Inspiron , at the beginning of July I had a problem because of playing games too much I am almost cured now like 98% recovered and today I bought a Core i7 badass Asus laptop so that my former problem stops happening ( it is my 2nd favorite thing that happened at 2018 ) this is a pretty decent laptop and so I can play HOPA games without trouble .
