Being a keen avid point and click gamer player I would definately put this in the top ten favourates. Buy it, you won't be disappointed, to me its up there with Syberia.

A Good Adventure Style Game
I miss the old days when PC adventure games were more popular. This one took me back to those happy days. The graphics were nice, the plot was good, though a little odd, and I enjoyed it end to end. (Ok, some of the dialog went on a bit long). Overall, I really good game.

Really 3.5 stars - the Ending Felt Rushed...
I took off the star-and-a-half, only because the ending was ... a little strange.
The gameplay was good; smooth with no bugs that I can recall. The story was good, the length of play more than adequate. I can do very hard puzzles but don't crave them. These were again adequate for my purposes; not easy by any means but not scratch your head for hours either.
The ending though was unsatisfactory. Everything happened really quickly, some of it didn't make sense and the story wasn't tidied up.
It's still worthy of the time taken for play, and at BFG prices it is worth the cost. Just not head over heels for this one.

One of my favourites
This game was my second "Chronicles of mystery" game, and its even more exciting and more tricky as "Chronicles of mysteries: The Scorpio Ritual".
Excellent Graphics, some very difficult things to solve. For players who loved "Scorpio Ritual", they will adore this one.
Definitely one of my favourites.

Need improving
This game needs improvement. The characters lack fluidity, they are so stilted and the the language skills.. ha, each time she say good by - "Take care", "I'm always available for a chat". Get some better jargon and make the speech more natural as I feel I am reading an ESL script!
There is no 'hint' button... Yes, I like the hint button as it gives me SOME guideline. The demo was a waste of my time as you had to be trying to figure out exactly what you had to do. When you click on the question mark for help, you got more question marks!
My rating 1 star

Good game, but a tad bizarre
This adventure style game is better than its predecessor, in my opinion, which is always good to see. It was a bit longer than the last one as well -- also nice to see.
The puzzles were more challenging than the first game, but were also intuitive. It starts out rather mundanely, but hits the bizarre pretty fast. While based in history like the first one, this game's plot wasn't plausible at all. If you don't mind that, I'd certainly recommend this game. If you have trouble suspending belief, this one might not be for you.
