This game made me laugh and weep. Memorable and charming. Every title in the series has a really challenging switch to another genre. This time it is a stealth section. The feeling i got after finally beating it was really satisfying, something i often miss with most modern games.

The adventure portions are top notch, and filled with great jokes. The stealth dungeon portion? Well, the game takes pity on you at a certain point and makes it easier, so there's that?

this game has a great sense of humor, stunningly good graphics, and perfect balance of point 'n' click adventure and retro dungeon crawler/stealth strategy. looking forward to the third installment!

Wow, I can't believe this game was such a low price. I haven't finished but am thoroughly enjoying this Point and Click Retro -style game reminiscent of the original Kings Quest or Quest for Glory adventure games (this has with much better graphics) The graphics are very good as are the sound and music. I am particularly enjoying the voice acting! Definitely worth a purchase if you, too, love and appreciate the older style P&C adventure games.

Amusing Pn'C totally wrecked by an arcade maze of the worst making imaginable, as if adding mazes - the lamest form of puzzle - to an adventure wasn't bad enough. So it's a maze, a downer by nature, and it's full of enemies that kill you, and death resets the entire thing and puts you back at the beginning. As poor and obsolete a design as it is, that's not the worst part. Worst are the controls, with keys not matching the screen directions but the current orientation of the avatar. A disastrous scheme briefly experimented in the early 80s, quickly declared a crime against humanity by multiple La Hague courts, and banned by an entire generation raised with taste and common sense. In short, the enemy is not the maze itself, or its fauna; it's your own keyboard. The tool is not the solution, it's the problem. Imagine planting a hammer into a wall by striking it with a nail... It makes about as much sense. For that heresy, the UI gets a rating of 0/10. With no options for sensible controls, I decided to quit, as I value my leisure time. However, I read there is an easy mode, magnanimously granted if you die often enough. It takes a lot of suicides, wastes a lot of time to get there, but it's true. Unfortunately, the easy mode doesn't provide a sane tool either; all it does is partially depopulate the bloody maze of its hazards. Still a pain, still counter-engaging, still an utter killjoy. I cross the crappy maze anyway, thinking that I'd be done with it and back with entertainment. It leads to a new location. Then, leaving that place, I'm back into the maze, having to traverse the turd once more. Hell No !!! That doubles the thumb down.
