OVERVIEW:

Once upon a time, fairy tales were valuable cautionary yarns filled with dire warnings and sage advice. However, over time, the stories have become so watered down with cute woodland creatures and happy endings that they have lost their true meaning and purpose. No more! Happily Ever After ends now!

In this episode, the devil tricks a lowly miller into trading his daughter for the gift of wealth. Each time the devil comes to collect, the girl is so soaked with tears of sadness that the devil decides to come back another time. Accordingly, the miller cuts off the girl's hands so that she's constantly crying and therefore unwanted by the devil. The girl ultimately ends up marrying a king, but when he goes off to war, the devil returns and tricks the girl into thinking that the king has ordered her execution, driving her out of the castle and back to her father. She's, of course, grateful to return to a place of safety until Grimm reminds her of the soon-to-be-famous phrase “an arm for an arm.”

Known Issues

This is a list of known issues for this game. If your problem is not listed here or you need more information, please contact tech support.
_____________________________________

ISSUE: Grimm hangs during loading.

On some machines with dual-core CPUs, the game may start successfully once but fail to load on subsequent attempts. This failure typically occurs before or during the splash screen and may be accompanied by excessive CPU usage by GrimmGame.exe. This is a known issue and will be addressed in a future release of GameTap.

SOLUTION: Changing the CPU affinity or priority of GrimmGame.exe in Task Manager while the game is hung may allow it to continue loading. The issue may also be intermittent; closing the game in Task Manager and launching it again may resolve the problem. In severe cases, fully closing the GameTap player may be necessary before launching the game again.
