Nevertales is one of my 10 Best Hidden Object Games Series of all Time, so there’s a lot to love about this franchise.

Unfortunately, its developers (Mad Head Games) have switched to creating a different type of game and Faryon might be the last in the series. There’s still some hope, as Mad Head’s official website states that they’re working on two unannounced games that are “based on famous and beloved IPs.” Hopefully, one of them is a Nevertales title.
