Simply Overstays It's Welcome
The Good: * A good... Forget it... An amazing... Never mind that... Oh I know... Gorgeous...No, no, no... What the word I am looking for?... I know! JAW-DROPPING graphic. Rich, Colorful and packed with so many eye candy that I think that the only game that looks better on the market is "Trine 3". * Very solid action-puzzle-platformer - Nothing needs to be added here. The game knows what it is and provides a good experience in that category. * An enchanting music - The music never comes to be an amazing one in this game but it fits the game very well. The Bad: * Simplified gameplay from the first one - Removing items and mana bar. Checkpoints now heal you for full health. Because of this the gameplay never really challenge you since you are never punished and you never need to consider anything beside how get to the other side or solve the puzzle. From start to finish it has no build up. * It's too long - Not in a sense that it is some grand game but in a scene that it has almost nothing new stored for you in it's 10 hours or so hours of length. No new mechanics, challenged or such. Nada... There is a point of how much times you can solve the same puzzle or platforming section in the same way until it becomes repetitive and tedious. * Story - In the first game they went and did a fairy tale like story, that went nicely with the game. This time they went with the generic story that pretty much adds nothing and you will not care for anything. * No point in searching for secrets - Unlike the previous game that gave you items for exploring hidden areas... This time you will get a poem or a picture... Gee, thanks but no thanks. * Fights - Fighting is the game weakest side. Unlike how in the previous game they knew it and provided a minimum amount of it, here you fight non stop and it's far from a refined system. Just choose warrior and click-click-click that left mouse button. The Ugly: * Realizing that this game is quite shallow... Sad face :(
