could be better
It was a good game, but hardly a great game! The puzzles were quite easy and I'd rather bought the standard edition of the game. The extra play for CE is very short and easy, no challenge at all. Overall it was a good game to kill time, good visual effects etc... but not a favorite to be honest.

very detailed
I am impressed by how detailed this game is. Someone put a lot of planning into it.
The focus is on patience, and problem-solving.
Just difficult enough to give some challenge if you are already familiar with this type of game. Good puzzles too.
If you liked the first one, which I would recommend playing first to get the background, this should not disappoint.
Tip: be very observant as you go.

Better than the first
A typical ERS game.
Storyline flowed nicely and was easy to follow, but didn't have you wondering what would come next.
Stunning graphics and good voice-overs.
Hidden object and puzzles relatively easy, and offer nothing new, but still fun to do.
Game was a decent length.
Bonus chapter followed on from story - would probably say it was actually part of the story. More like a final chapter.
The bonus story was way too short.
I found this game to be more enjoyable and better done than the first one.

Not as good as first one!
Enjoyed it alot, don't get me wrong but it's kinda all over the place and it sure keeps you busy. ERS studio are very good at keeping it fun. The only thing they do that I don't like, in their HOG scenes, are the one or two highlighted items. I get those out of the way first. Graphics are great 2D/3D lots of color, well worth 14 bucks.

Loved it !
I loved the prior game set in Paris. The graphics for this sequel are equally beautiful! The game is "light" enough to see and find the HO's (for those of us with older eyeballs) . The story line kept my interest. Loved this game and enjoyed playing the trial. Will most likely purchase , just not sure if I will purchase the SE or the CE.

Another great game from these makers!! Loved it!
I absolutely loved this game! It was even better than the first Maestro game which was great too. The people who make these specific games (Maestro; Shadow Wolf Mysteries; etc) do a fantastic job of making the perfect HO/Adventure game. I always look forward to more of their games. The graphics are always wonderful and gameplay is always fun. I don't even bother with the demos of these; I just buy them straightaway because I know they'll be worth it. Especially the collectors editions. Definitely give a try!

very typical ERS game
another absolutelly typical game from Kiev based ERS Game Studios. Same as pretty much all their other games.
lovely art and anims, shallow story.

Brava, Maestro!
I didn't think it was possible for this developer to make games any more beautiful - but they have! This is a well thought out, fairly challenging game (you won't pull lots of hair out - but you will get stumped now and again#. It runs more smoothly even than some other recent offerings from this dev! They really put their all into this one - and they have a lot to give!
A compelling story, lovely music, graphics that ought to be in a museum and even a bit of humor now and again. It's certainly a sequel that does not suffer from "sophomore slump syndrome" well worth the CE price! Oh - and the mini games - again a great mix of difficulty levels #though none soooo hard I had to skip) and a nice mix of familiar and very unique games.
I'd give this 6 stars if they let me - enjoy and happy gaming!

Excellent graphics and fun game
Played the demo and the graphics are really stunning.
Thoroughly enjoyed playing it. The only change would be to make the puzzle that requires the code to be skipped if one can not get it figured out.
2 Thumbs up!
