Along the way, you will unlock abilities such as a hookshot and time mastery by praying at alters. You also will upgrade and create swords that have their own magical powers. The heavily Batman: Arkham Asylum-influenced combat can be repetitive. However, it is at least fast paced, fluid, and beautiful to watch. Speaking of beautiful, the environments in Stories are absolutely lush with color. From jungles to deserts to Lovecraftian dungeons, every location in this game has a delightful storybook feel. The game's humorous narrator and dynamic soundtrack also heightens the game's storybook feel. The narrator voices all the characters, while also narrating the events of the game. And with 24 different endings, that is a lot of narration. Additionally Stories features a dynamic soundtrack that actually changes depending on how you play the game. Stories: The Path of Destinies is certainly a game of many paths that will give you your free fantasy fix.
