I try not to give to negative a review but I suspect this game is going to be short . I am basing this on the time I had left after playing the trial. I had 36 minutes left. The game was not to challenging . The mini games were fun but easy . I thought there was a lot of back and forth. Not a buy for me as a CE, maybe a buy as SG. One of the things I look for in a review is the time not many reviews put that in.
I recommend this game!
Utterly clueless, but full of good intentions, Robert and Laura set out to save their world in this bizarre and imaginative point and click adventure.

I just finished this game. I loved it . It is different at first I was not sure what to do but there is a help button in the form of a question mark. I loved the different places you get to go to and try to find your way or what you need to do . Look at everything and every place to find things you will need. Talk to everyone and thing you will meet, you will find out information you need and get clues on what you need to do or where to go. I really enjoyed playing this game. It is a adventure game, which I do love to play. so if you like a lot of hand holding then this game may not be for you, but if you want to try something different then give this a try.
I recommend this game!

As my title says to the point. Not everyone is going to like or love this game ,but I do. At first I thought this was a little childish. As I played it became clear that this game is anything but that. It is a fun game that makes you think some but not to where you get tried of thinking of what to do next. Not a very long game but fun. I hope there will be more of this frog and witch. As they say try it and see for yourself.
I recommend this game!

I played both parts of this game a few years ago. Loved this game it is so different from the games that are out now. It takes you on a journey that you can get wrapped up in .The story is moving and it will grab your mind and make you use your brain.I have not played a game like this since .This game made me happy, sad and in the end it touched my heart.If you are looking to play such a game, then give both parts of Syberia a try.
As Kate and Oscar continue their journey they find themselves blocked in the mysterious university town of Barrockstadt!

love both these games. played this game awhile back. it is a wonderful continuation of the first syberia. this ending will make you cry a little but will make you also happy for the the one she is looking for. want say much more do not want to spoil it. will say if you do not like to use your brain alot, then this game might not be for you, but if you want to play a game that has a great story and really good graphics,and want to play something different then give this game a try.I would love to see another game like this. maybe this is not the end of the syberia adventure that would be great.
I recommend this game!

I at first thought this game was going to be somewhat childish. I was so wrong. This game was so fun and it made me laugh. It was worth the money and the time it took me to play it was a good amount of time. If you want to laugh and just enjoy playing something different then try this game. It is not as easy as it looks.
I recommend this game!

I liked that this game was a long one. The game play was overall good. There is a map which is great, because there is back tracking.Was not to thrilled about the ending in the bonus game,but was still worth buying.
I recommend this game!

I liked this game . It was nice to play a game without ghosts and demons. One thing not so crazy about is the number games.For those who are better at math you will like. There is some back tracking but not so much that you get frustrated.I did not time how long it took me to finish, I just took my time and enjoyed it.
I recommend this game!
