Customer Reviews

Do not recommend
I was disappointed with this game. The puzzles at times are illogical and not much fun to figure out. If I hadn't been able to go online to get clues (and sometimes answers) then I'd give it one star. The scenery in the game is very nice.

Who is this impostor?
Where is the real Umang? Pleasant chap, enthusiastic attitude, friendly. Who is this scowling, sarcastic stuffed shirt? He looks, sounds, and acts nothing like Umang. Disappointing and bewildering to those of us who ran straight from Fate of Ages to this sequel, eager to once again pick up the quest and see where our 'hero' landed.

The graphics are improved--they were excellent to begin with--and the puzzles challenging. Unfortunately, we left off at the demo, the sinister impostor having annoyed us enough to find ourselves disobliged to continue.

If change of character doesn't bother you at all, this is a worthy game; enjoy.

Cheesy Fun
The graphics are good and the puzzles are enjoyable and not too hard, but the story, to me, is cheesy enough to be distractable. If you can allow yourself to be pursued by something called "The Shadow Legion" without falling out, you should be okay. I often felt as if I was walking around inside a child's cartoon, and a bad one. However, if you're looking at a game called "The Sacred Rings" (like I did), the fantasy elements shouldn't be a problem. Overall, the game was engaging and fun to play- the tram rides are a great way to travel!- but it often seemed as if the sappy adventure story was simply in place to accomodate the puzzles.
