Critic Reviews for Tales from the Dragon Mountain 2: The Lair
Tales from the Dragon Mountain 2: The Lair is Cateia Games' weirdest title yet but it still offers a rewarding puzzle-filled adventure.
I also managed to pick up all but one of the collectable objects on my first pass without really looking for them, so they can’t be that difficult to complete. Some of the puzzles made me pause for a while, which was nice, but the majority I just breezed through. This isn’t unusual in this type of game, but I’m sure someone less accustomed could get quite a bit more time out of each puzzle. I spent most of my time playing annoyed at either the off-track story, dodgy controls, or lacklustre animations, which is a shame because with a refresh (which really, should be done as standard when porting such an old game to such a new system) it could be a pretty decent bit of fun. As it is, I’d have been sadly disappointed at paying for this short, badly-ported adventure. However, if you’re looking for a game to sink a few hours in to and exercise your brain while you’re at it, it’ll fill that need nicely.
Tales from the Dragon Mountain 2: The Lair does bring a lot of head scratching moments to the player, and casual adventure fans will love playing it.
