If you've played Syberia, then Syberia 2 is an empty shell. If not, Syberia 2 will make an emotional impact.

Having played and reach the end of Syberia (I just love that game) was in some way the end of the line and the end of the story of Kate Walker and Hans Voralberg and his dreams of mammoths. Therefore it feels kind of odd playing Syberia 2; there are no purpose, no reason, no surprises since you've already been there.

I'm convinced; The Adventure Company developed Syberia and Syberia 2 as one huge adventure and in the process realized that it would be too much of the good thing; Cutting it in half. That could explain the short time spread between the release of Syberia and Syberia 2 (7 months) and the fact that there are no improvements of any kind. This could be the reason why Syberia 2 failed to involved me emotionally, witch Syberia did so well.

If you haven't played Syberia I believe that you can find the same magic and emotionally involvement witch Syberia delivered.

Accompanying Hans Voralberg to the cold tundra in search for the mammoths you will play as the New York attorney Kate Walker, helping the old man fulfilling his dream; seeing the live and breathing mammoths.

Actually I did in fact get emotional involved playing the game, but it was irritation and a lot of swearing, while playing the PlayStation2 version. Advice: Play the PC version and avoid terrible controls, loading times and general frustration.
