You know that thing they say about turn-based games? "Just one more turn"? That's how I felt playing this game. The environments and general atmosphere are very well done - very compelling and gripping. The game just makes exploration enjoyable - you want to open "that" door. You want to unlock "that" safe. You want to walk into that dark hallway - even though there's a voice in the back of your mind screaming "DON'T DO IT!". This is, after all, a horror-themed adventure. There's blood, dead people, ghosts and a few jump scares. The "horror" isn't visceral and oppressive, but you'll be jolted a few times. The puzzles are logical (mostly) and not super difficult. There are quite a few different kinds of puzzles aside from the ubiquitous "find the item, bring the item to the place, use the item"-type puzzles. The game automatically keeps track of clues for the puzzles which makes things easier. And if you are truly stuck, there's a hint/skip button to unstuck you. Note that I said "mostly" logical. The puzzles, though generally well done, sometimes feel "forced" and illogical - you have to solve a lot of seemingly trivial problems in a roundabout way or use "this" tool instead of "that" tool that also appeared logical (to be honest, it feels like you're being trolled sometimes, which is annoying). You can always use a hint/skip, but come on... With regards to the story, I think the story of part 2 was weaker than part 1. Part 1 established your character's motivations, gave you background the main "actors" and set the general "tone" of the "investigation". Part 2 barely moved the story along any further. You're given a few more shreds of insight, a bunch of new questions are raised and then... well...let's just say it's kinda disappointing. But I think these are small problems. In my opinion, this is an easy recommendation for any fan of adventure games that doesn't mind the horror theme. I eagerly await part 3.
