Play time is about 7-12 hours. Hi: I downloaded Book 2 yesterday from Gog. I played Book I installed Book 2 and it downloaded and installed OK but I think I must have done something wrong. I am playing it on win 7 on my laptop - Book 1 played ok there. I started playing Book 2, but don't think I am at the right place in the game. The start of Book 2 begins with a scene of a baby in a crib. Ive seen that part before, but forget where - maybe part of a demo of the game. It said somewhere that Book 2 has a button when you start the game showing your last game. I didnt see any button for that. It also mentions you will continue on with the last Book 1 save, but I can't find the saves for Book 1. Can someone tell me what is the first scene after you start playing Book 2? I downloaded Book 2 to Downloads folder. Book 1 download files are also in Downloads but different dates of course. Thanks for any help.

The baby in the crib is the last part of Book1. If everything is correctly installed, then once you have finished the baby section on the main menu something like play book 2 should appear at the top. Book 2 starts with Kian Alvane not the Baby. Once you are in the game you should be able after a lenghty intro to run around with Kian. Werner Werner

I completely forgot the baby in the crib in the last part of Book 1. Its been a while since I finished Book 1 is my excuse :) It threw me because I had read there was a part on the main menu that playbook 2 should appear, but there was no mention about Playbook 2 on the menu after I installed Book 2 which I thought there was supposed to be. That was another reason I thought the baby scene was maybe the wrong save from Book 1. Do I have to solve the baby scene before I can get to the main menu with playbook 2 appearing at the top? Very confusing I must say. I would have liked it better if they had made the game all at one time instead of 5 separate episodes. But too late now. Thank you.

Do you mean that when I downloaded Book 2 and started to play it, I shouldnt even have seen the baby scene at all? Should Book 2 have started with a Menu where I would click on "Play Book 2" at the top of the menu which would take me to the start of Book with Kian ? --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

I think they do things a little differently than Steam about updating, etc. acccording to what I read, but I don't know what the difference is. I still can only access the start of Book 1. I installed Book 2 but when I try to access it, I get the start of Book 1. I have saved games from Book 1. Maybe I could get a saved game near the end of Book 1, so I could access Book 2, but I don't know which saved game would be near the end of Book 1 or where the saved game would go. I am more familiar with win XP. I will figure it out sometime. Thanks for your reply and input. Mary --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

I am not stuck with the baby. Thats what I meant before. I was able to get the baby part, but now can't find that part. I must have done something wrong and now I can only get Book 1 from the start of it. I can't get Book 2 at all. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

Excellent chapter btw. rather slow in the beginning but really picks up pace towards the end.
