Jane Angel 2: Fallen Heaven Reviews

I really like this HOG!! Some of the gameplay is "wonky" but still well worth the play

I almost missed this gem of a game. I enjoyed this game and played for 6 hours taking my time. The Story... Jane Angel contacted her sister Nancy begging for help but when Nancy arrives at Jane's house she is met by a stranger in a mask. The stranger throws a book at her and suddenly they are both on a ship in the 1500th cebtury. I think, after the player past freeing hisself from the ship they will see the adventure really takes off. Voice overs and characters you meet in the game are good. There were no glitches I encountered. The HO scenes are clear not to dark and fun to play. The graphics were very good along of various locations and I found the story to be interesting. So two thumbs up, for this adventure.

This is in many ways superior to the first [I]Jane Angel[/I] game: it's a real point-and-click adventure this time, with a lot of interesting locations and puzzles. But, OMG. The writing. The voice acting. It seems that no lessons were learned from the first [I]Jane Angel[/I] game. The English translation is so bad it verges on the ridiculous. But even if it were competent, the story itself is like a B-movie written by drunken toddlers who got bored in the middle and took a nap break. THE END. Gameplay is fine. The rest is ... so bad that it's good? Kinda. If you play this genre of games you already have low standards for storytelling. But this one takes the cake. It's also very short.
