Game Introduction – Fabled Legends: The Dark Piper

Welcome to the Fabled Legends: The Dark Piper walkthrough on Gamezebo. Fabled Legends: The Dark Piper is a hidden object/adventure game created by Blue Tea Games. This walkthrough includes tips and tricks, helpful hints, and a full guide to help you unravel the mysteries of the dark piper!

How to Use this Walkthrough (Please Read)

  • This walkthrough is meant to be used as a guide to assist in solving mini-puzzles and acquiring all items needed in order to complete the game. You may explore locations in the order you wish, but this walkthrough is written to offer the most direct route to the game’s finish.
  • Inventory objects will be written in bold. The walkthrough will state, “Use [the inventory item] on the [interactive object]” under the assumption that you you have the item mentioned. If you don’t have the item at that point, press CTRL+F on your keyboard while reading the walkthrough. In the text box that appears, type the name of the item you are looking for and press ENTER. This will scan this page for the appearance of that word, which you can use to ensure you are able to find its original location.
  • Play the tutorial! It will explain gameplay elements. The tutorial is available in Casual mode only. For those who are confident it will not be needed, however, feel free not to set the game to Casual mode.
  • Often you will need to perform an action (i.e., place or collect an inventory item) in order for the game to progress. Before assuming the game is in error, please go through your inventory to see if you can place any of your items in the given position, or look in the vicinity for an item to pick up, switch to flip, etc.
  • Have fun!

Gameplay and Tips

  • This is a hidden object adventure game. You will move from location to location completing hidden object hunts, mini-puzzles and picking up items to use in order to proceed forward.
  • Move your cursor over every aspect of a scene and watch for it to change slightly. (Besides this guide), it’s the only way to find everything!
  • The Options button at the bottom right of the screen gives access to the Options screen and will bring you back to the main menu.
  • Items collected throughout the game go into your Inventory, located at the bottom of your screen.
  • There are three difficulty settings. You cannot switch settings mid-game.
  • In Casual mode, sparkles indicate areas of interest and the Hint and Skip meters fill quickly.
  • In Normal mode, there are occasional sparkles, but the Hint and Skip meters take longer to fill.
  • In Hard mode, there are no hints or sparkles, and you cannot skip a mini-puzzle. For this mode, the puzzle guides here will be particularly handy.
  • Hidden object scenes provide a list of items to find. Items listed in white text are immediately available. Items listed in orange need further actions to uncover. When you have found everything from the list, an item will be added to your Inventory. In this walkthrough, the Inventory item will be indicated by a yellow highlight and the item(s) that require further action to find them will be indicated by a white highlight.
  • Your objectives are located at the bottom left hand of the screen.
  • Closing a window – To close the zoom-in windows, click Close. Tip: If you can zoom in on the area again, you likely haven’t found everything you need to find.
  • Mini-puzzles can be skipped once the Skip button fills completely. The Skip button is located at the bottom of the puzzle window. The word “Skip” will appear once the meter has filled and is available for use.
  • Hints are available in the bottom left of the screen.
  • Hints used in the hidden object scenes highlight an item or will show how to get a yellow-listed object.
  • Hints will not point to a Fabled Object.
  • Hints used during the adventure mode will point out something to do in that scene or tell you conclusively that there is nothing more to be done.

Fabled Objects

There are 20 Fabled (morphing) Objects to collect throughout the game.

  • Collecting Fabled Objects speeds up the Hint meters’ refill speed.
  • Fabled Objects don’t appear immediately in some locations. A Fabled Object will sometimes appear later into the game, requiring you to back-track.
  • To find Fabled Objects, look carefully at each screen to look for something morphing or changing its appearance. Your cursor will not change to a hand when you hover it over a Fabled Object, so each one requires more scrutiny.
  • Hints will not point to a Fabled Object.
  • A location may have a second Fabled Object as the game progresses, so don’t count any locale out.
  • In this walkthrough, Fabled Objects will be indicated by green highlights.
  • A list of all locations compiled appears at the bottom of this walkthrough.

The Grail, Map and Naming Convention

  • The grail is in the bottom right corner of the screen.
  • The golden compass contains the map. Click on the mini-map to view a map of the area. Areas of interest will be indicated. You cannot jump to another location from the map.
  • This walkthrough will use the names of each location as indicated by the map. If the walkthrough states, “return to the Town Square,” check the map for the correct route, if necessary.
  • The Ravenlore Whistle will summon a raven only if you are outside. The raven can reach areas you cannot.
  • The skeleton key will work in any lock.
  • The Pied Piper’s flute will either summon or disperse rats.
