Adventure by Ray Ivey
"...Are you in the mood for a breezy, gorgeous adventure
game with more of what you like and less of what you hate? You're in luck,
folks."
"Easily the most entertaining segment of the game,
however, takes place in a stunningly-imagined mythical Baghdad. You actually
assume the role of Scheherazade as well as the wily thief in the story she's
telling. In your pursuit of a black rose you encounter a kaleidoscopic parade
of puzzles that are a tremendous pleasure to solve. There's everything from
using a cat to divert a guard to guiding a unicorn through a tricky maze to
becoming a piece on a gigantic spiral game board. The entire sequence is a
triumph of design.
"I've been pretty hard on games with the Cryo label in the
last few years, so it's nice to be able to report that Beyond Atlantis 2 is
such a pleasure to play. It's as if someone sent out a memo reminding everyone
that, ahem, adventure games are supposed to be fun. And this game is the most
fun I've had with a Cryo game since their underrated 1999 Ring: The Legend of the Nibelungen. It's a game that will
bring much pleasure to the desperately deprived adventure game audience."
