Excellent game! Interesting characters, Awesome, even relaxing, voice acting, very unique, good looking design. Well crafted mystery, this is an excellent game, down to, and including, the very end.
The visuals are superb.
All dialogue is voiced, and the voice acting is great.
I only remove a start because of the ending. It was slightly unsatifying. It felt a bit abrupt, and the ultimate motive didn't seem clear.
This game is missing 2 functions I look for in a Point-and-Click game:
(1) Your cursor changing shape when you hover over something you can click on.
(2) A button you can press that shows you everything on screen you can interact with.
You can LITERALLY click on any point of the scene, and you'll get flavor text, if only to tell you there's nothing there...which is annoying, and increases the amount of guesswork needed to find everything there is to interact with, so it makes pixel hunting both necessary and excruciating. Either that, or making you use a walkthrough.
In other words, they really didn't fix the problem from the first game.
The artwork, animation, music and voiceovers are all still very high quality.
I don't like what they changed Sally's character design to...
In the end, I wasn't able to guess the culprit, and rather think they came out of leftfield; their motives didn't make any sense, and were a REAL stupid reason to murder somebody...so I can't say I found the ending satisfactory.
I loved playing through this game: The characters were fun, the puzzles were simple, and the actual reveal genuinely shocked me. My only downsides are one part where I was blindly chasing a single clue so I could move forward, and the literal last minute was underwhelming. Otherwise, I definitely recommend this one.
Not a bad game, but overall I liked the art style and the gameplay of the previous one better. The sassy sidekick was a nice addition, but making every click trigger commentary was not.
