Once again, we participate in a long trip of the returning protagonist, Kate Walker and the mysterious heir she chased all the way through the first game, Hans Voralberg. Long version:Syberia II is, from beginning to end, one large journey, continuing straight from the ending scene of the previous game. Syberia The World Before - Prologue Review I wonder why they didn't end it there as I haven't played the third game yet. It is a very well made game that has some touching moments and the ending was perfect. it is still as good as the previous game. The most beautiful thing about this game is the artwork.
There is no journal, but in the inventory, you can check the items and notes you've picked. I wished there is a map though because I tend to get lost in the large areas. The gameplay is the same as the previous game, but the maps are larger and there is lots of back and forth, there is still pixel hunting and the puzzles are as difficult as the previous game. She abandoned her work, ignoring her boss calls who has sent a detective to track her down, but Kate determined to fulfill the man's last wish as he is dying. Kate Walker has decided to help Hans in his journey to find the last Mammoth on the mythical island which has the same name as the game's title. The sequel of the classic Point&Click game Syberia. Once the journey is over, there is definitely a loose string - Well, what now Kate Walker? Luckily, we will be getting the answer in Syberia 3, and I can't wait to see what new adventure she finds herself in. Now I must address one thing - the ending. It will just depend of your experience with adventure games. The puzzles are everywhere from pretty easy, to definitely having to think. Each area feels like a kind of level, so there are only so much backtracking. This will give you clues about where to go. The key is to talk to everyone about everything you can. Of course, you can't have an adventure game without the puzzles.
The dynamic between these three makes this game special, and at times heartbreaking. It is his dream that is the focus and what drives Kate. The story really focuses on Hans, whom Kate is helping reach Syberia. He may come off as annoying to some but personally I would love to go on a train adventure with him. The cast of characters that surround her are also memorable. It's a real life lesson, and I think that is what makes her so special. She learns how important it is to follow your dreams, and help others realize theirs, despite how crazy or off the beaten path they are. In her case it's a promising career in New York City. She doesn't save the world, but she questions the importance of having the ideal job in an ideal place. Seriously, if I were to pick a favorite heroine, it would be a tie between Commander Shephard and Kate Walker. The soundtrack is a wonderful blend of regular orchestral music or a tribal feel, depending on where you are in the game. The cut scenes are exciting, beautiful, and add to the overall mystic feel of the game. Even though it is mostly snow, and blizzards and vey remote locations on the fringe of civilization, it is gorgeous. Where to even begin? I love the world that Benoit Sokal has created. I dare say it will be unlike any game you play. If however you think that that plot has possiblities you have to play it. Now if you think that a game that has the story of a New York lawyer named Kate Walker going to Eastern Europe to wrap up a business deal and ends up instead helping an old man who is a genius with building automatons (NOT robots) go to the supposedly fictional island of Syberia where mammoths still live is boring, then move along. Syberia II starts immediately after Syberia ends, so it is not so much a sequel as it is a continuation of the story. I am so glad that I didn't play Syberia 2 until 3 was announced because I think I would have some seriously unanswered questions, but lets start from the beginning. When I learned that Syberia 3 was in the works, a fire got lit underneath me and I finally played and finished Syberia 2 in preparation. I beat Syberia a year or two ago and while I really enjoyed it and knew that the journey continued in Syberia II, other games and life called me away.
