Love the Youkols

Like Syberia I, this sequel provides fantastic graphics, cut scenes and plot. I enjoyed being revisited by some old friends too. The new characters add to the game and I enjoyed my companion Youki. Of all the areas Kate visited, I especially liked the Youkol Village and the Spirit Woman "too-k, too-k". If you enjoyed Syberia, you'll love this. I found myself wanting Syberia III at the end.

Slightly less entertaining

Although the game (From my perspective) is a little less (Very little) entertaining then Syberia, one will not be disappointed with the game. Once again, Microids has come through with excellent graphics a good story with some new characters and some interesting puzzles. I would rate the game A-. So go out there and get your self the game and enjoy!

great sequel!

If you liked the first one, I think you'll love the sequel. Nice boost in graphics and cinema. Downright enchanting in spots. I liked Syberia 1 and 2 because the puzzles weren't too hard and nice soundtrack to go along with a compelling story.

Not nearly as good as the original

I loved the original game, but Syberia 2 was a sad excuse for a sequel. If you havn't played Syberia 1 and you like adventure games, you need to. The graphics in both games are breathtaking and the plot is original and addicting. The puzzles in the first game were just the right difficulty and the characters were awesome.

The first thing I noticed in Syberia 2 was the lack of music that I think made Syberia 1 such an intricate and loveable game. The character meshes in the game constantly get glitches, causing frequent crashes. The new characters in Syberia 2 are cool (especially the `dog'), but it doesn't make up for the quality of the puzzles.

After playing the game through (I loved the story line) I found several puzzles that were basically trial and error, with no logic involved. Others required you to talk to someone about a topic 5 or 6 times even when you knew what to do without the dialog. Those puzzles weren't that bad compared with those in which you had to find microscopic hotspots that are often connected to one that you have clicked several times.

Other issues I encountered included: graphics bugs that caused frequent crashes even though I had all of the system requirements, Kate Walker was often rude and belligerent in dialogue, and a lack of puzzles that involve logic instead of luck or extreme amounts of time.

An excellent follow-on to the original

As many other reviews have suggested, Syberia II is a near-seamless segue from the original game. But despite the natural feel between the games, Syberia II is like a whole new chapter, and plays a bit differently. While the original was like a bit of a race to follow Hans' trail from city to city, the second game is more remote and deeply immerses you in the beauty and lore of the exotic Russian north. You can tell that the developers put a lot of care into the game, from improvements to the gameplay to the beauty of the settings and puzzles.

If you like adventure games as much as I do, then you simply must try the Syberia games. While I miss the Gabriel Knight and Tex Murphy games of old, the rich story and backdrop of Syberia was like a great novel I did not want to put down.

As good as Myst.

What I liked the most is the freedom of moves. You can go almost everywhere. It's the sequel for Syberia. She decides this time to follow the old man, instead of going after him like the first one. You will see beautiful scenario and amazing puzzles. And you will love the end. There's a lot to see and do, so you won't get bored. No danger, but not easy to get out of the puzzles and traps either. I really enjoyed and it's a basic family game. Anybody can play. By the way, maybe you will need the patch available on the Internet. I got for the first one, so the game would play nicely. I didn't have any problem with the second one. I see some people saying the game is not working well on their PC. So if you think your game is playing funny or seems defective, try to download the patch, maybe it will work for the second one too.

I can't wait 4 this game!

I downloaded the demo 4 this game and when it finished I wanted more! The first game was enchanting and I think this game will be too.

To all the people out there eager to get the game: Could you please wait until you buy it before you post REVIEWS???? Yes, some of you have the demo; A DEMO IS NOT A FULL GAME. And some of you loved Syberia 1. Then, please post a review on V1. This section should be an opportunity to prospective buyers to see what other (buyers) think. Things other than that fit better in usenet.

Is this a joke?

If I wanted to see breathtaking scenary and no storyline, I would have went to the mountains.

The puzzles in this game are tedious and hardly worth anyone's time. The only thing keeping me going was the fact that I was finally going to get to see Syberia. From that little city, to the middle of nowhere (like the novel of Huck Finn) and finally to Syberia the game lacks any direction what-so-ever and the puzzles are those of repitition, not thinking.

I fell asleep during the playing of this game numorous times.

Save your money, buy a candy bar.

Syberia rules!!!!!!!!
