I bought the original Nightmare Realm on spec and based on good reviews last year and was very pleasantly surprised. This is an excellent follow-up. Like the first game, this also has a surprisingly dark theme, but the approach is eerie rather than gooey. The characters are well developed and engaging and I genuinely wanted to know what happened to them. The main game story ends satisfactorily, with the bonus chapter adds some interesting back story.
I don't play with sound on, so no comment there.
While not overly challenging, the puzzles are interesting, well integrated and beautiful. They all added something to the story as well - rather than feeling like random filler. For HO hunters, there isn't a vast amount, but what there is is good. The best of the HO scenes are highly interactive and found in the bonus chapter.
Overall it looks and plays a treat. Some thinking is required, but the story and the graphics held me happily captive and I will be replaying.
I recommend this game!
