The Good: Pretty, relaxing music (assuming you're into that)
Everything else: Boring. Puzzles with absolutely no instructions on what you're supposed to be doing. Short. Character walks soooooooo slow. It's really hard figuring out where you're supposed to move the character.
Give this one a pass.

This game is pretty good. Predictably, my favourite thing about it is the main protagonist. Sarcastic, cynical, city dwelling, socially awkward, nerd chicks (and those who love them) are exactly the target audience for the game.
Overall enjoyable on all points, interesting and entertaining, just nothing spectacular.

Just like the first one but with tons and tons of smoking. Feels so weird to see smoking, particularly female smoking in a generally family friendly medium like this. But Granny would be like, "Yes, that is what it was like. I miss that. Cough.. hack...Cough".
Otherwise, just generally not a lot to say. If you like this type of game, then you'll enjoy this one.
I like this series very much.

You gotta know what to expect with this series by now. This game is just like the first one. Maybe getting a tab bit stale....
Overall still pretty good.

D&D plus choose your own adventure book style. Delivers perfectly on its promises. I really enjoyed this. All combat was really simple, though not particularly well explained at the beginning. A relaxing mind trip away from the real world.

Wow. Play this. Totally different and unique game controls. You're conrtolling each character at the same same with each joystick. And like woah, friggen beautiful. The graphics are amazing. It's fun. It's different. It's short, 4 hours? It's not difficult, except for forgetting which character is which joystick. There's nothing else out there like this in originality, story and visual appeal.

A good game. Long. Generally pretty easy to figure out solutions. At times funny. Some good jokes about foreign perspectives on America.

I enjoyed this game. They def got better as the series progressed. All the chapters are pretty short though. I liked the puzzels, though there are absolutely no instructions given telling you what it is you're supossed to be doing. A bunch of times I had to look up on a walkthrough just what the goal of the puzzel was, but once that is clear, the puzzels aren't actually that hard.

The thing I found most distinctive abut this game is the main character's hilariously flat voice acting. No matter the situation or the emotions involved, all lines are delivered in a flat monotone. Otherwise, it's ok, for a non-voilent adventure game. Game physics are better than in the first one. Still pretty short. There was a lot more running aound this time. I enjoyed the puzzels. People who complain about the circle puzzles clearly have no idea how they are supossed to be solved; just count the number of movements each wheel has to make before it gets to the end spot and then start your wheels turning in the correct timing round.

Really short, 2-3 hours tops. The jumping physics was pretty annoying, kind of like old school tomb raider. Story line was interesting. Puzzels all super easy. Overall, s'ok.
