King's Quest (2015)
Review Pt. 4 - Frozen Family Feud
This is the most straightforward batch of puzzles in the five-part series. The entirety of this episode is based around solving giant puzzles involving blocks and sliding tiles. There's a good variety of these types of challenges, with a few different types of mechanics being introduced, but it still boils down to just being puzzles. Near the end is a larger puzzle involving your normal King's Quest "Use X on Y" inventory-based challenge, but it's the only one of its kind.
From a story standpoint, this is focused on family drama. A lost family member is reunited with Graham, and throughout Snow Place Like Home, Graham attempts to make up for lost time by bonding with this person. There are some legitimately heartwarming moments here, and you really want them to figure things out, but there's also plenty of stubborn grumbling between the two of them. I'd say it's a net positive, and there are some intriguing revelations at the end, though they're not hard to see coming.
