Gamers explore the world of Albion in a brand new way as Lionhead Studios moves its RPG franchise to a first-person perspective for the Kinect exclusive Fable: The Journey. Set 50 years after the events of Fable III, players take on the role of a young man named Gabriel as he helps transport a mysterious woman named Theresa to the Tattered Spire and battles an expanding darkness known as The Corruption. The on-rails action finds gamers astride a horse, using hand gestures to conjure spells and create weapons in order to defeat foes and collect their life force.
Life force can be used to learn new spells, while fishing, telescope, and puzzle mini-games help keep the action varied. Players must also take care to treat their horse well by not pushing it too hard through the levels, and by petting it, brushing it, and treating any injuries it suffers.

Game works well. Have no real complaints about it except it’s a little slow paced for me. I enjoy faster paced games like dancing and sports competition games.
I am a long-time fan of Peter Moleneux (spelling?). I go all the way back to his stuff from the late 80s. Even though I found Fable II pretty terrible, I decided to cut him slack & give this one a shot.
Its actually pretty mediocre. The Kinect interface is about the only strong point. But it tells you to sit down. So you are not using your legs at all. So its kind of a half-kinect interface.
So far the game is 100% linear. The original Fable was "kinda" linear, but gave you the option of wandering around, developing your character & interacting with all sorts of people. This one is only for the Fable Completist, who absolutely must play every Fable game out there.
But hey, you get to pet a pretty horsie!
It is not like a normal Fable, but kinect made it exciting!
I have just recently beaten this game and decided to give some input on the game. My complete rating to this game is based on a kinect gamer. I am only giving this 5 stars because the use of kinect was done right and was fun and exciting.
If you are a big Fable fan, chances are you will not like this game. I gave this game 5 stars because there was a real challenge on some boss fights. You had to really get the spells down and be able to multitask with both hands. The story was pretty good and there are a lot of extras!
I would suggest giving this game a try if you want to see the true power of kinect with your hands. It is neat and pretty responsive to an extent. Some things get annoying though. I truly hated the fact I couldn't make decisions in the game. I really enjoyed the old fable games when I got to adventure around. This game is a one set path with no options and you just follow along.
2/5 for a Fable story since there are no choices.
5/5 for a kinect game since it was done perfectly!Read full review
