  • Summary: Kidnapped? Standard princess procedure dictates dutifully awaiting rescue by a knight in shining armor.

    But Scarlett isn’t dutiful. She’s angry. She’s going to start a fight, make a daring escape, and ride into the sunset on an egotistical mechanical horse built from spare
    parts. Hang on…

    There's a lot to like about this little game: excellent writing, nice graphics, and puzzles that are actually fun to solve. Truthfully, the only complaint I had was the length of the game, and even then, it wasn't that I felt cheated in any way; I was just eager for more.

    While it's a bit on the short side and a tad easy, this is a hugely promising start for Launching Pad Games. More, please.

    If you are in the mood for some interesting and fun point and click adventuring Scarlett and the Spark of Life is definitely recommended. It won' t last you more than an evening though.
