The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 

 

The wisest man on the planet said: "there is nothing new under the sun." That was King Solomon in the Holy Bible - Ecclesiastes 1:9. Why do I bring that up? Because The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 is a point and click adventure. In the past these were the craze that could be found on multiple discs. Players installed them onto their hard drives, and had to swap discs throughout the story.

Family Friendly Gaming was provided a Steam download code for The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 on the Personal Computer. This game clocks in at 13 gigs. Crazy right? We hope to avoid ISP fines due to the limits they put on Internet usage. This is just another reminder at why the physical copy movement has been gaining so much steam over the recent years.

Players get to experience an intense puzzle element in The Book of Unwritten Tales 2. It can take an hour to get out of certain rooms. All because certain actions have to be performed in a specific order to get through. The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 can create real world anger and frustration. I looked for a hint system and did not find one unfortunately. Pressing the space bar shows all of the items that can be interacted with in a room. Sadly many of them are just a waste of time.

Graphically the art in The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 is fantastic. The downside is the violence, and enticement to lust. There are also images of alcohol and tobacco. If those life ruining addictions are a determent to you, then you may want to pass on The Book of Unwritten Tales 2. I would hate for a video game to be the cause of your relapse, and destruction of your life.

The voice acting ranges in The Book of Unwritten Tales 2. I liked some of the characters voices, and others irritated me to no end. There is also magic, and disobedient children in The Book of Unwritten Tales 2. Plenty of characters in The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 have horrible attitudes. Some of that is used to try and create humorous moments. Which is not everyone's flavor. The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 also includes some rather sensitive and adult only subjects.

There are those who will get into The Book of Unwritten Tales 2. There are a certain breed of people that enjoy the point and click adventures. There are also a certain style of people who like the humor included. It was not to my personal liking, and I feel The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 leaves casual gamers behind. The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 is a game that will require plenty of effort on your part.
