Time Mysteries 2: The Ancient Spectres

A really nice HIO. I doesnt really spoilers anything from the first game, i think, and works as a game for itself, which is pretty nice.

Pros: +Graphics are beautiful. +Time machine map is fun +Many hidden objects scenes are challenging. +Steam achievement Cons: -Where is the music? and once it is played there are only two tracks playing in the middle of the...

Unfortunately not much better than the first one, you still run around without even understanding half of what you're doing and dealing with puzzles with 0 explanation on what you're supposed to do.
