8 of 15If you were disappointed with the length of chapter 1, don’t worry, this one is MUCH longer. Chapter 2 offers more of the amazing Afro-noir game design, funky jazz soundtrack, and hilariously eccentric characters that made the 1st chapter so unique and fantastic and I loved every minute of it. I do wish enola’s house of butterflies was still a playable area though, it sounds pretty amazing 😉
Beautifully put together game with fabulously rich characters with accents from Jamaica, Africa, Deep South in US, and a swabby who doesn’t seems quite sure if he’s an Aussi or a Cockney! Love it! The scenes are so atmospheric and the jazzy background music perfect. I really appreciate the different approach to the character creation, some with African Masks for faces, some with robotic faces, and maybe even marionnettes. It lends an air of other worldliness to the story yet the characters have all the humor and idiosyncrasies of humans.
I loved this game but the sound never worked while I was playing. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but that didn’t work ):
Annoying accents, inane dialogue, stupid storyline unless you are 12. DELETE.
If you are a fan of big band style jazz, the soundtrack alone deserves five star rating. Gameplay was fun too but i really love the musicians involved in this gem. Rip Simon.
I really love these characters and want to find out what happens next. Chapter 2 is quite a bit longer than chapter 1. I’m hoping chapter 3 will be long as well. I never pay full price for games, but I will for this one.
Sound comletely broken. Not worth the price.
Arts, dialogs, music, atmosphere... absolutely great. 100% recommending to fans of point n click.
