Empress Of The Deep 2: Song Of The Blue Whale Reviews

my mom made me like hidden object games from childhood and I played a lot of them, my favorite ones would be the the Sprill game series made by Five-BN studios, which I strongly recommend to buy on bigfish if you're into hidden object games the game is good/ OK for a 2007 game, but there are many stuff that holds it back first I'm very disappointed how the game utilizes its resources so few. the scenery when you enter an area can be quite beautiful and makes you appreciate the early 2000s Myst-like art style graphics which I have soft spot for. Unfortunately once in those areas, you just make a couple of hidden object games, then find some other couple of stuff and that's it, you will never come back to that beautiful area again. the first game also had this issue which is huge lost potential to keep me in-game. it also doesn't help that the puzzles are BORING and EASY. you can simply just get done with a whole area in 15 minutes or less before you look at the nice scenery enough. it's like the game itself wants you to finish is ASAP like it's rushing somewhere. zero replay value and unlike the Sprill games, there is no good vibe or even nostalgic feeling present that might get you to visit it again. another thing I don't like is the audio sound quality. sometimes the game just feel LOUD, even if you lower the volume. like all the sounds are mixed with each other with no cohesion. just sounds mixed with each other, also in some cutscenes the video quality gets tooooo low, like I'm talking about 144p low despite the flaws, I recommend it for its cheapness and visuals alone
