This is the second game in the Hugo-trilogy. Somebody in the mansion of
Hugo's uncle was murdered. It's the task of you and your girlfriend to find the
murderer. The graphics in this game are an improvement over the first game and it
appears to have had more work put into it. The areas that you can explore are huge
and there is even a giant hedge maze that you have to explore to finish the game.
Many of the clues are hard to spot on the first try as well, therefore it may take
you a long time to get through the game. Along with the classic hidden item
puzzles, there are also reflex puzzles that require you to react quickly and
navigate hazardous areas. For example, in one scene you have to get through a
field of venus fly traps without getting bitten. In another area, you have to
cross a bridge without bumping into the edge so you don't drop an item. Overall,
this game is much more challenging and there is also a lot more humor. In one
scene, you have to fight back the advances of the gardener in order to access an
area. In another scene you travel to another universe in a magic phone booth. |
