This sequel is structured in a similar way to the first game, with you needing to solve puzzles to find tapes that then progress the story and lead to more puzzles. Here though, the puzzles are harder, but also clearer that you need to…

Lena’s night in the cabin is split into hour-long segments, with each hour introducing a new monster. The monsters themselves are based on Slavic folklore, which is something I found enjoyable. Each creature features the tale that it’s…
