Very well done. A lot of fun to play. It does take some work.,

This review is from: Syberia 1 & 2: Collector's Edition (Video Game)
I have never played one of these adventure games before. I tried a demo version of this game at GameSpot. I got hooked and came here to buy it. This was a very good price for both games.There were some flaws with this game. It wasn't with the play or operation. Some of the action logic wasn't always to my liking. There were spelling/grammar errors in the narration text. There was also one big thing that surprised me. But, these things didn't detract from my enjoyment. They were just little side notes in a terrific game. (And, I used to work as a software tester, so it is kind of my nature to find things like that.) The graphics/artwork/object/background construction was really great. I loved the buildings, towns, forests, etc. One of the problems I did have at first was that there wasn't any wind. The rivers flowed. The birds flew by. But, the trees and plants didn't move. It was just strange walking through a "frozen" environment sometimes and took some getting used to. There were times when I laughed out loud playing this game. It was more in the second episode. I only played these games an hour or so a day and sometimes skipped days. I found that it was a good way to do it because, not only did I get frustrated when I couldn't figure something out, but it also drew out the enjoyment. I will also add that I had a friend playing the games at the same time. She was way ahead of me and is a smarter, better gamer. But, sharing the experience with her was fun. We would talk about Kate (the main character) a lot like she was real person. LOL I will say that there is a good "hints" website (uhs-hints) out there that is very good. I used it once in a while when I got stuck. I didn't want the answers, just a little guidance now and then. I read that there is a Syberia III being planned. It may come out in 2010. I will definitely consider getting it based on these two. I can see how the third game can pick up where the second stopped. The big story is over, but there are some openings for the main character to follow. I will add that I ran this game on a Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop running Vista Home Premium. I did not have any problems. I didn't have to run as the Administrator or anything like that. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful

Syberia 1 and 2,
By Europa - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Syberia 1 & 2: Collector's Edition (Video Game)
I thought this game was excellent! The story is a little more reality-based with the main character while she makes a journey to places and with characters that one would not normally see in our own world, but that is what is nice about this fantasy world taking place in our own. The puzzles are not very complicated when performed in the correct order. However, the actually graphics and images, as well as the dialogue and culture of these places is what makes it very fascinating. This was definitely an artistic game and not one that involved a lot of wit but some in order to complete it.

Excellent Games at an Excellent Price,
By Terry Lawrence "Otis" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Syberia 1 & 2: Collector's Edition (Video Game)
The games themselves are engaging and the graphic arts are exceptional. This approach to adventure gaming is a winner. The packaging of the two games together at half the price of one game sealed the deal.
