Thank you so much for the comprehensive review, flotsam! It sounds good to me.

And thank you for your help, Drac.

Draclvr and flotsam.

Thanks flotsam (and Drac)! Since I recently bought the game (rather than waiting like I usually do) I think I may start it soon. I have read that you are asked at the beginning of the game whether you played Call of the Sea or not and if so, which ending you had chosen. Not remembering doing this at all, I looked at a video of the games end but still don't recall choosing so I don't know what I chose, but I'm guessing my answer won't drastically change this game. I'm hoping I won't get too seasick because I did love the puzzling in the first game (where I got a little sick at times but not too bad).

Thanks for the great review, flotsam!

Thanks, Drac!

Thank you, Flotsam for the nice review, Thank you, Drac

Well, I'm already 13.5 hours in and am still in Chapter 4, so I am already past flotsam's estimate of 8 to 10 hours of play time. I have to disagree with not needing pen and paper. I have about 5 pages of written notes because I need to organize them into one area rather than go back and forth in the journal (for some of the puzzles). I still ended up needing to look at the hints for Chapter 3 and eventually the answer. I was close but too tired of the puzzle to keep going with it. Not sure if I'll make it through Chapter 4 on my own yet. I still need to make a few more attempts. I also disagree that the circle cursor works well. It is increasingly getting more fiddly and hard to get it to where I want it.

This game is okay but I preferred Call of the Sea. Has anybody else played it? Mikael? Orion?

flotsam, not trying to disagree with you and your review. Just pointing out a little different experience for me.
