Divine Journey 2: The Five Books of Moses Reviews

I liked the first game better, even if the slider puzzles in it were maddeningly difficult at times. This sequel seems more like a DLC package instead of a new game. The collectible items (books this time) are easier to spot, and the slider puzzles were toned down a lot to be doable, but a new puzzle where you manipulate a quadrant of pieces at a time is even worse. I could not figure out the mechanics to that at all and had to skip all of those games. Wondering if they are even possible to solve, as you are always moving 2 pieces at a time and if you have an odd number of pieces upside down, you'll never get everything in the correct orientation? There are some other new game types where you put pieces into a scene, one of which is childishly easy. The other variation of this game has you moving sliders back and forth but still isn't that much a challenge. The music is exactly the same as the first game, and once more you get Scripture quotes at the end of every game. Despite there being 5 books in the Pentateuch, I only noticed quotes taken from 3 books, and the story of Moses isn't the bulk of it, as the majority of the game features quotes from the book of Genesis. No Steam Achievements, but I'm starting to think some of the in-game achievements (which are exactly the same as the first game) are bugged or otherwise impossible to get. The jigsaw puzzles are still clunky slow to play with how they were designed and the floating images at the end of each game have a weird jitter to them every so often. The CE extras are a music player and a collection of wallpapers, which doesn't really make this game CE-worthy IMO, unless there are extra "chapters" which were seamlessly tacked on to the base content and not that noticeable. There are 25 chapters with 4 different games per chapter for a total of 100 different games, and maybe the SE version is shorter. It's not bad for just a few bucks, but I wouldn't pay more.
