Surprisingly Good Puzzle Adventure ***

BASED ON FULL DEMO

Being a stickler about graphics, and disliking the older realism style, I really didn’t expect to like this much after reading the reviews. Still, there was some disagreement over the quality of the artwork, so I thought I’d take a peak.

I’m ruling with the minority voters on this one. I think the graphics are great. They are what they’re intended to be, that is, photorealistic. Which is, admittedly, out of fashion, but that doesn’t speak to their quality. The scenes are all crisp, clear, and bright, and I haven’t seen anything like a junk pile yet, not even the workshop.

I’m also not too sure about saying it doesn’t have HO scenes. There are plenty of things to find, it’s just they are right there in the general location, not in a separate pile. You must find a set of particular items, often several sets, in order to progress to the next location. So if you think of that location as a multiples HO scene, it makes more sense. A nice touch is that the game tells you how many items are needed for each set, and when you have found all the items that are in one place, so you know to look for the rest of the set in another.

I do think I am able to appreciate this game more than other reviewers because I HAVEN’T played the first, which seems to have set up expectations that this one doesn't deliver on.

This is not the world’s most exciting or sophisticated game. The romance (what little there is of it) seems childish, but it’s an easy time killer and nice to play.

I recommend this game!

I did the beta on this one, and I didn't love it as much as the first on.

I never played the first one. So I was coming to this without expectations.
