Whispered Secrets: Into the Beyond Collector's Edition

Well-crafted HOPA with lots to do and a good variety of puzzles. This is the second game in the series, and picks up several years after the first game: the protagonist is the young scientist's fiancee, instead of his mother (who does appear in the game). There are lots of traditional HO scenes of the word list type. If you're looking for a well-paced game with a historical, early sci-fi setting (late 1920s), this will appeal. The game is not original to wide screen, but the adaptation is better than most. Pros: - nice art - good puzzles (range from easy to some challenge; most moderate) - lots of HO scenes (traditional with some "extra step" objects) - follows the characters of the first game - music is appropriate, although it does loop - three choices of difficulty (I found Advanced was the right combination for "casual with some challenge") - ** excellent re-use of items ** - voice acting is very limited, but good - good length with a decent bonus chapter that resolves a sub-plo...

I found this to be a somewhat simple but delightful HOG.

Plot is confusing, but I had fun.

love the game
