This is so good
I absolutely enjoyed this game. Right up my alley. Love this type. Gorgeous graphics, very real, great colors and details.
I really liked to go through the portals and help the ghosts. Just the imagination on how the portals open up ,like huge picture frames on ropes.
You have a ghost that will help you a few times rescue the others. These individual portals are basically individual stories, but it all ties in to the main game. You have to walk back and forth a lot. But it all makes sense you you really never forget the story and you barely need a hint.
Just use the map, it will guide you as well. I don't like to jump around on the map because there is a lot inbetween that can be missed if you do that. Such as surprise appearances......
This story kept me fascinated for some reason and it never got boring. It is also of very good length which I appreciate a lot. These devs put a lot of thought and imagination into this second installment. I also liked the first one a lot but this one has it beat by far.
The ending comes to a closure and it was pretty good, did not really leave you hanging, however the bonus goes on. I recommend playing the CE, since the bonus ties into the main game which is also well done, however you are playing as someone else....will leave it at that.
Highly recommend this one, we need more like this.
Oh yeah, and we have morphing objects. Thank you for this game, there are not many games that really hit my button. This one was amazing for my taste.

THE PERFECT HOPA!!
I thought the first Sacra Terra was great but this one is an absolute winner. I also loved their other game Forbidden Secrets Alien Town.
This game has everything I look for in a HOPA. Great graphics (crisp and clear), a storyline that keeps you on the edge of your seat (especially at the end); No annoying musical sound effects when clicking on items in a HOS or in other areas, just a nice simple click sound; And one of the most important things to me in a game-an interactive map that lets you transport from location to location and also shows which location still needs a task completed.
I so enjoyed this game I didn't want it to end. I kept on wanting to collect hearts and reunite souls so they could spend eternity together.
I know some people complain about what is CE worthy and what isn't but I think if the bonus chapter is a decent length then that in itself is enough for me to buy a CE. I enjoy having the bonus chapters since its like getting 2 games in one almost.
I strongly recommend this game. It was a definite buy for me and a very enjoyable gaming day :) I look forward to more games like these 3 from these devs.
Happy Gaming everyone!

Absolutely Brilliant!
I wish I had the time to write a proper review, as this game truly deserves to be evaluated and praised on every level, but I couldn't skip saying something as people need to know what a great game this is.
The first Sacra Terra game was wonderful, so I was expecting this one to be just as good or better...AND I wasn't disappointed....It is fantastic in every way!
Music/audio: Brilliant audio and great music througout
Visuals: STUNNING!
Hint recharges very quickly.
Level of challenge is great as it really makes you think and rely on memory throughout. But you always have the option of using the map to go from one place to another. It is very easy to use and loads VERY quickly.
I do not agree that this game doesn't deserve to be a CE as you get the music scores, gorgeous wallpapers, Concept Art. and a VERY lengthy Bonus Chapter. On top of that there is a strategy guide that is very easy to use.
Puzzles were great because they were quite challenging, though some were very easy to solve.
IHOS are a lot of fun and challenges you throughout.
All in all, this game is absolutely brilliant. If you liked the first one, you'll love this one and I highly recommend buying the CE for the bonus chapter and strategy guide :)
Happy Gaming everyone!

I really liked this game!!
I played the try me version and I will certainly buy this game. It keeps you busy all the time and thank goodness for the inter-active map that helps you go from place to place. The HOS games are somewhat difficult but great fun. Finding the morphing items is just a added bonus to this game. Beautifully drawn and not as dark as I thought it would be. Hope you enjoy this game as much as I will.

Great Puzzle and Adventure Game
just into about an hour and a half of the game and so far am having a great time. Morphing objects! Yea!! Logical game play; great interactive map. Haven't needed the SG yet nor a hint button. Good HO scenes where items are not obvious but neither are they impossible to find. If there are achievements, I haven't earned any yet but good stuff all around. Plus a decent plot, decent graphics, just enough voice overs that I don't get bored waiting for them to tell me their life story. Definitely a replayable game.....a must for me.

Awesome Game!!!!
This was by far the best game I have played. Lots of fun things to do, LOTS of objects to find and use. Easy to follow and find what to do with each object, which is what I enjoy. Adventure abounds in this game, many different planes to visit, each one is beautifully depicted. Very large map easy to use. Great art and music. Please invest in the Collector's Edition, the bonus chapter is actually the most challenging of the entire game. And it is a good length, almost 3 chapters worth of bonus play. I thoroughly enjoyed it and it was worth every penny. Excited to play the next in this series.

Very satisfying game
The storyline is now a well-used one (a pair of lovers and one has to rescue the other from dire straits and evil), but the game doesn't suffer for it because the story-line, although simple, is good. Loved the map, helpful but not too overly helpful to spoil the challenge and it helped with not having to run back and forth through the scenes, which is just as well because there are quite a lot of locations. The graphics are good, the quality of cursor accuracy is good, the HOS are good. The puzzles are a bit basic but not enough to spoil the game. The ending is a little bit abrupt and that may cause a bit of disappointment in the SE if the ending is the same. The bonus chapter is excellent and rather than just being an add-on it's a story almost in it's own right which gives an extra hour or two game-play, depending on how fast one likes to rush through things. I like to take in the scenery so it was an extra couple of hours and well worth getting the CE. Good game, well made and very satisfying to play.

Very Entertaining Game!
If your looking for a game just to relax and have some fun, then this is it! The story line is well thought out by the developers, scenes are crisp and clear! This game is not stressful and you have a great map which keeps the running back and forth to a bare minimum. The HO'S are fairly easy as I expected this game developer to have more inter action with the HO scenes and not repeat the same location. That is why I had to rate the level of challenge to an "ok!" Some of the puzzles are fairly easy!
So....if your just looking for a game to relax and take a break from the real world.....then this is it!

Loved it!!
Alawar games are excellent, including this one. With one of a kind storyline, very engaging and full of action, with smart puzzles, super helpful maps and good voice overs. You can't help but wonder how can they create such awesome games. I love all Alawar games including this one and I am so glad I bought the CE because there's part on the bonus chapter about the main characters. I play the main game for about 5 hours, and the bonus game for 1 hour. A long gameplay and very exciting.

Good Game
This is a well produced and well designed game. The story is nothing special, but is up to par for most games. The story does have an ending in normal play. The bonus chapter shows more of the story and presents a better ending.
Game play is very good. There is some back-and-forth, but the map shows where action is needed and allows jumps which really eases the "walking" pain. The HINT button points in the right direction, too, so you don't need the SG. The HOS all include IA, and the puzzles are good.
This is a very enjoyable game to play.
