Aurora Hills: Chapter 2

The continuation of the Aurora Hills mystery. Ethan Hill, a park ranger still investigating the strange disappearances in the region and looking for Jen, followed the clues he found at her campsite, which led him to a whole new area, leaving him with more questions. The game is point&Click full of unique puzzles in an eerie setting where you feel isolated, yet being watched. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3775149418 The artwork is breathtaking; the scenery is so beautiful. Although the place is completely abandoned, the details of the areas and the houses you explore are phenomenal. Similar to the previous game, the UI and gameplay didn't change: you solve puzzles and collect items to unlock more content. Not forgetting that you can combine two or more items together by using the hammer on top of the inventory list. You also still have your instant camera, which you use to take photos of the clues you might be using to solve puzzles. This is a fun idea: keep a photo album of all the photos you've taken in-game instead of doing it on your own phone or scribbling it down on a notepad. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3775149377 I enjoyed the puzzles so much; they were very clever indeed, as the developer has stated. You can't jump in and solve them normally; you have to explore and find clues, then attempt to solve them. You can skip them or use hints if you ever get stuck. There is still no map to navigate the areas, and the game is divided into three sections, with no ability to return to a finished area. I found them quite large and confusing to navigate at first, since the game requires you to backtrack a lot. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3775099355 Pros: +Eerie atmosphere. +Good soundtracks. +Good voice-over. (During cutscenes) +Beautiful artwork. +Objectives list. +Hinting system (You can skip puzzles) +Photo album system to keep clues. +Variety of unique puzzles. Cons: - Linear story. - No map or fast traveling. - Lots of backtracking. - No Steam achievements. I liked the ending cutscene, and the voice acting was really good. I'm looking forward to the next chapter, and hopefully, there will be a map.
