Following on the heels of the successful debut title for the series, this second game in the series had improved graphics and soundtrack but also with the horrid copy protection. While waiting in prison for a re-trial, Jesse Bains (the “Death Angel” from the first game) kidnaps a guard, escapes from jail, and goes on a rampage to seek revenge on the people who have put him behind bars. The graphics are slightly improved and the game still operates via a parser interface. The major difference between this game and the original game, however, is the revised driving system. Gone is the manual driving system. You now travel to the location you want to go to by getting into your car and typing the name of the location, after which you are automatically driven there. Developed with Sierra's new SCI engine, it focused more on detective and forensics work than the traffic-cop beginning of the original, while keeping the same realistic setting. The proper procedures for collecting and handling evidence are the main focus of many of PQ2's puzzles. | ||
