The best fables and fairy tales games
Before fantasy became a mainstream genre, stories involving magic mirrors, evil orcs and witches from every corner of the world were simply called "fairy tales". After Tolkien books and Dungeons & Dragons RPGs, fairy tales became "fantasy". Considering the wide popularity of fantasy settings, there are still a few video games true to the fables and fairy tales theme.
