I have only played through 1/3 of the second one (or something like 
that) and I like it until now.

I might be out of training by not playing computer games for some years, 
but I did in general find the puzzles appropriate...

People are just whispering VERY quiet...

Oh, I failed to mention that the first game had good puzzles.  The second 
starts out decent, but then becomes very LAME (a lot of running between 
islands, back and forth, back and forth).  You will see, once you get to the 
other 2/3 of it.  Third game...way too easy.

They need to speak up.  They are pissing me off! 

neppie doesn't look like a skull at all:

Too easy is right. The puzzles in Ep 1 reminded me too much of EMI 
though, so I can't agree with you there.

I'm enjoying the story (and characters) though, it seems to have adapted 
well to the episodic format. We can only hope the puzzles get harder in 
the later episodes.

Still had to think a little outside the box to solve them.  The puzzle 
solutions were amusing, in keeping with the game, but yes, not particularly 
hard.  They definitely need to step it up - I feel as if this is some $ 
scheme, rather than an homage to one of the greatest games evAr!!

They could have done far worse with the characters and the VAs, for sure.  I 
just wish they wouldn't have made some of the dialogue and sounds so 
repetitve.
