This sequel keeps the atmosphere and stylistic brilliance of The Last Door while upgrading its storytelling and gameplay. The puzzles are more intricate, especially since each episode is a lot bigger than what we saw in the first game. Like in the first game the puzzles are well designed and based in reality aside from the fourth episode which delves into a much-earned surrealism. There's more emotion and humanity in the narrative compared to the first game's sparse personal stakes.

I don't think that the game ends on a satisfying note, though. I could use a Last Door Season 3 even if the developers have happily moved on. Overall, this is a really cool point and click saga and I'm glad I got around to playing this one.
