better made than the first one
Way better made than the first one but still many puzzles are just trial an error to figure it out

Hand of Fate: Potions, Puzzles, Magic
In the sequel to the first game, you now play as Zanthia, one of the Mystics of Kyrandia. Playing as an alchemist has its perks, introducing new gameplay elements while you attempt to save Kyrandia from disappearing. The new mechanic, potion-making, adds an enjoyable twist. Just like in the previous game, if you want to make things easier for yourself, it's wise to jot down recipes and puzzle solutions. The writing has become more humorous, adding significantly more character to the game. Zanthia is delightful to play—her remarks and lines consistently bring a smile to your face. The zany locations you visit are brimming with life, and there’s a clear leap in quality from the first game. The pixel art is fantastic, and every location you explore has a distinctive style that keeps your eyes glued to the screen. The difficulty has ramped up a bit compared to the first game, but thankfully, your inventory space has expanded, and the puzzles never feel punishing. Even when a solution takes time to uncover in classic point-and-click fashion, it doesn’t feel like wasted effort. Although there are moments, especially the final puzzle, when you may feel the urge to punch the screen, all you need is to breathe, relax, and let logic guide you. All in all, it’s a great sequel that stirs things up and refreshes the formula of the first game. The Hand of Fate offers an exciting story that draws you in and surprises you along the way.

So-So, but worth playing
Very nice graphics, great voices and protagonist. Also some nice puzzles and humor. But also very much walking and some illogical puzzles, and what takes the cake is the annoying one directly before the ending. Fortunately, GOG privides the clue book where it is explained in full detail. Did not play 1 and 3, but as far as I read this one is the best of the series, so you might start with this.

Great classic!
Even better than Kyrandia 1, that I recently finished after 30 years. A must play for fans of classic point-and-click, especially if you are old enough to remember Westwood Studios.
