If you know little or nothing about the Syberia series, it involves a New York based lawyer named Kate Walker who gets involved in an intriguing case that takes her across the pond to Europe and beyond. The cast is an interesting blend including an life size automaton that should be diagnosed with OCD, an overbearing mother, cosmonaut, monks, a couple of dimwit criminal types with a London cockney out of Mary Poppins, and many others. The full scale wind up train is a looker, and the scenery is amazing. Benoit Sokal has quite an imagination. This game is for anybody who enjoyed the first Syberia, or likes to solve puzzles and mysteries. If you are anything like me, you probably could not wait for SyberiaII to come out, because you never got to go there in #1! Prior to the game's release, there were rumors floating around that the game was only going to be available for PC's. I was relieved to find out that it was packaged for Xbox and bought it immediately after seeing it on Ebay. It has all of the elements of a successful mystery inlcuding and excellent story line, characters, and setting. Highly recommended. PS You will be amused with a certain playful creature which I will not name. I can't give away everything!Read full review
If you like puzzles, you are going to LOVE this game! Syberia 2 is loaded with puzzle after puzzle after puzzle... from the simple to the pull-your-hair-out wanna throw the controller tricky kind- heh! Don't go consulting the cheats too early though- If you play long enough and pay attention to clues, you will get them and have hours of fun with this game. Oh, did I mention the graphics? OUTSTANDING! A great story line with lots of beautiful scenery by a real master. A couple places where I could see a bit of improvement is if there was some action incorporated into this game. For example, when our heroin catches up with one of the kidnappers there is a fight- How awesome would it be if you controlled her moves? There is alot of action in this game, but in the form of action clips... One of those games that won't kill your fingers by playing 3 days straight (relax, and save at most any point in the game- no designated save points here!) All in all, I think this is one of the best puzzle games ever made, but if you don't like puzzles, you may find it boring. This game gets 4.5 stars from me- I love it!Read full review
Syberia 2 is as good as the first game if not better. And I am saying this and I haven't even completed the game yet. I liked 99% of the stuff about the game, especially how intuitive you have to be to figure out some of the puzzle and what to do. You can spends week trying to figure out one little thing and I love it. My one complaint is the slight change in how you click on items to view or use them, but other than that the game is phenomenal!
It’s a very difficult game to figure out a great brain teaser

Syberia 1 was a very cool, different story line,that kept me having to play part 2. syberia 2 is a wonderful game to play with others, seeing how it really exercises the brain, and you may need a little help or perspective on some of the puzzles. the graphics are exellent, and the characters do grow on you. i love these games. from,40 check out my ebay store -the40thfloor-thanx. http;//stores.ebay.com/the40thfloor
