You have a choice to find money in one week or classical "or else". Just for formality you are watched by Malone's thug Stogie Martin.

Doesn't really improve upon the first game, and by 1988 the annoyances of this old graphic adventure format were far less tolerable.
Significantly harder than the first game, requiring some obtuse commands (like having to use the flashlight on yourself to turn it on). Whereas the first game gradually and effectively reveals the central mystery to you as you uncover clues, I spent the majority of the second game not understanding wtf I was supposed to do.
The game's final puzzle involves planting evidence in a sneaky double-double-cross of a pair of mobsters, but good luck ever figuring out exactly how to do that without a walkthrough.
