the FMVs are camp and the movement/navigation is an improvement coming from The 7th Guest. however, they doubled down on the diabolical puzzles with there being a handful of truly awful ones.
i'll dip my toes in with the fan game just to see the whole series through but i don't think i'll return to this in game form. might watch a youtube video of the video sequences though.

I still have warm memories of getting my hands on the new-release demo of this one near the end of '95, and it was...almost fun. Having never experienced 7th Guest, nearly all of the sequel's story was lost on me, but I wasted a fair amount of time on it while using my workplace computer, to boot. I'd be curious to see if it even boots on Steam now.
