You will continue to meet new characters throughout your mission and discover more plots as you approach your final destination. Nonetheless, Syberia II is a story about the journey to find the mammoths of old - and if you started from the beginning, the journey has been a long one for sure. Not much has progressed from the original, and one could wonder if it was one complete game broken up into two pieces as they felt closely intertwined in all aspects. Without spoiling too much of the first game or the story thus far, you will continue to play as Kate Walker and travel alongside your companions from the first. As mentioned in my first review, this doesn’t bar the player from enjoying the story and, if you have already played the first, you’re more than likely to have adjusted to the issues. Sound is again a bit numbing to the ears and mostly feels like it was imported from the first game. The blurred distinction is a nice touch however, the blurry cutscenes can still feel muddied and occasionally subpar. Vistas and environments continue to deliver on the mysterious wow factor that is the Siberian Tundra, and it maintains a good mixture of realism with the fantastical. These were some of the gripes that I had with the first, and I would say they are still prevalent in Syberia II. Not much has changed in other areas including animation and forced camera locking. Much like the first, the controls haven’t improved much and are still acting as a hindrance in some portions of the game. If you are looking to continue the story and loved the original, then Syberia II will give you the final chapters to discover the mysteries of Syberia and the mythical mammoths. Syberia II is, more or less, the same offering as the first without much deviation that made the original what it was. Picking up exactly where you left off in the first Syberia title, you reprise the role of Kate Walker in this mystery puzzler.
