The humorous dog and rabbity-thingy are back and better than ever in their newest installment of episodic advent
I believe that the story is, by far, one of the most important elements in an adventure game ( besides the puzzles of course). You'll be happy to hear that this season steps up with intensity of anticipation, each episode ending in a satisfying cliff-hanger. The first episode in this season starts you off in massive robot attack at your office, where you'll have to stop the monster, find who sent them, and foil their plans. As the story progresses, you'll find yourself completing each episode in less sittings than the last, wanting to see what would happen next. I found myself remembering the beginning to episode "203: Night of the Raving Dead" most vividly, it had me smiling before the theme song sequence. The story and creative writing in this installment will have you cracking up.
The puzzles in the season also retained cleverness. I found myself completing them faster than the previous, but maybe I've just gotten smarter since then? Anyways, the puzzles were very good. I seem to recall the first puzzle in episode "201: Ice Station Santa", where you had to defeat the giant robot attacking the office. With some clever thinking, the solutions to the puzzles were very satisfying. Some parts of the game were a little hard where I used the game's hint system where your little buddy Max, recommends doing certain actions or going to certain places to help get you back on the train of thought. They were very fun and also very creative.
The graphics in this season were on par with last seasons, which means they were great. With all the graphical settings up, I found myself amazed about how great it looked for an adventure game. Along with the exquisite environments, they made a great duo. One of the environments I found particularly creative was in episode "205: What's New, Beezlebub?" , I can't go into detail for the sake of spoiling the game, but I can assure that you'll find it particularly remarkable.
I found nothing wrong with this season. I just wish it had been a little bit longer because I enjoyed it so much. There are little things they could improve on like better mini-game driving sequences. Overall, the excellent main features of the game worked together to create a colorful masterpiece of adventure gaming. I can only expect even more for season 3.
