Baphomets Fluch II: Die Spiegel der Finsternis

I liked the first game, this sequel is as good as the first one but I didn't enjoy the first part (almost the first two hours) due to revising the same location and an uninspired place (the harbour). After that it comes the best

Good graphics, good music. Some may prefer the story pacing of first game. But 2nd game is equally fun and great in my view. This was first game i played of the series way way back then, and fell in love with the series from here on out. Remastered version is not that bad either, though i do slightly prefer original mainly because i dont like the help toggles much. But nonetheless, amazing game!

I love the hint system like in the previous episode. Hotspots require a bit pixel hunting to find, unless you turn on the option to see them. There are some timed puzzles where you can die.

After having played the first Broken Sword and having LOVED it, I excitedly jumped right into this sequel. Boy, was I disappointed. In addition to the few flaws of the original (lack of background music, slow controls, lack of any substantial conclusion), this game throws everything out the window that made the first one great. First and foremost, the characters are mere shadows of their previous selves. Once developed individuals with realistic, unfolding motivations, now even the main characters are shallow, unlikeable folks who go through the game doing things just because they can. The plot really isn't very engaging, where after the opening act, the only reason why you do things is because the puzzles requires this of me to move on. Who cares what laws we break or people we harm along the way! The gameplay introduces a new dynamic [if you played the original version of the first game], where you swap between the two main characters-- which is highly disruptive to the game. Just as you're starting to finally get invested in what your character is doing, you swap back over to something you don't care about again. I rated this game 3 stars, because on its own merit, its a serviceable point and click if you want to solve some adventure puzzles within a somewhat coherent story. But a classic, this game is not. Probably won't be buying any further in the series after this.

Schön zu spielen, viel Textrummgerenne, keine wirklichen Rätsel wie im ersten teil.
