I truly enjoyed playing this game, with its captivating plotline, great graphics and interesting characters! Good assortment of mini-puzzles with HOGs scattered between. If you like cards of fate decks, I would recommend also trying "Dangerous Games: Prisoners of Destiny Collector's Edition."
I recommend this game!

This game is one of the best I played in a while. It has an interesting main plot interwoven with numerous sub-plots which all connect to the game's main villain. Consequently, it takes a while to go all the way through to the end (this is actually one of the longer HOP games I came across in a while). There is a good balance of hidden object scenes and puzzles with varying degrees of difficulty. Overall, I highly recommend this game (please note this game is NOT for children, as it contains many gruesome scenes and touch upon dark subjects).
I recommend this game!

After reading the latest reviews, I just felt I had to raise the rating bar of this game since it truly deserves a higher score for what it offers. This game does have a different mechanism for solving hidden object scenes as the other reviewers already suggested, and it sure adds to to the level of difficulty and challege the gameplay offers. I've been playing HOGs for quite a while now, and Enlightenus II was one of those games I found quite rewarding in its Extra content. For the price of collectors' edition, you not only get the usual wallpaper\screensaver\music score\concept art\minigames items, but also a full version of Forgotten Riddles, and cheers to that! Also, although the Hidden Object scenes might get repetitve at times, the skip between different times and settings add to the fun factor reminds me of Echoes of the Past: The Citadel of Time#. Just thought I'll add my own impression of this wonderful game, but at the end of the day each player has their own preferences and expectations of the game offered to them.
I recommend this game!
