  6.0

  The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 is a tough one to recommend, mainly due to the fact that if you haven’t played the first one, you’ll be in the dark for much of what is going on during this game. Plus, you won’t understand a lot of the witty humor and inside jokes that make it more delightful to play. There are still some serious pacing issues throughout the game, but things do come together quite nicely after a while and the sections where you have to switch between characters to solve certain puzzles is pretty clever. If you’ve already played the first game, or you don’t mind going back and playing it before trying this one, then you will probably enjoy the story that The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 has to offer.

  8.0

  This game is painstakingly detailed, with cohesive quests, engaging script and user-friendly mechanics. The production values are also supreme, with gorgeous art, peaceful music and great voice acting. On the other hand, the story lacks the feeling of urgency, the characters could have been better developed and the game is filled not only with wit and heart but the bugs too. But these flaws shouldn’t prevent any fan of the old school point and click adventures to spend 30 hours with this game.
