However, it presents more interesting and varied locations and dances around topics like religion, poverty, and sexism, so in that regard, Syberia 2 is a bit more daring than its predecessor. Syberia captured a steampunk, automaton-filled world full of colorful characters and memorable locales, and concluded in such a great way that I wasted no time diving into the 2004 sequel.Īlthough the games are separated by two years, they look and feel identical - the pre-rendered backdrops, character models, menus, and gameplay make Syberia 2 feel like a 2nd episode more than a sequel. I was totally engrossed in Kate Walker’s evolution from a New York lawyer in a small French village to a woman trading the life she once wanted for the mere chance of adventure. The 2002 adventure classic Syberia was a pleasant surprise when I played through it for the first time a few weeks ago. Of course, if you’d rather watch the story unfold, Christopher Odd has an awesome Let’s Play of both games over at his YouTube channel. If you’d like to play the first two games on your own, you can pick them up as a bundle on Steam for $2.99 during the Summer Sale until July 5th. *This review will likely contain plot spoilers for the original Syberia, which I’ve already reviewed here.
