The graphics, especially the backgrounds are breathtakingly beautiful! You can really get lost in this world, I have played through the first part in a day, I could not solve easily.
History is built wonderfully, it is about an old man who is inwardly remained a child and wants to fulfill his dream of the mammoths and a young woman who accidentally gets into what is happening to this dream inside, can be fascinated by this and finally in lose him.
The story of a search for the old man and to the mammoth.
The story Benoit Sokal has created is beautiful and place in Syberia II (highly recommended) their (preliminary?) Conclusion.
Special flair give the story especially the many, many machines, which Kate encountered in their search for Hans and must repair them frequently. A large Spaßfakor makes the Corinth shit engined, cowardly engineer Machine (NOT robot!) Oskar from which Kate unleashing repeatedly to the Lok Mechanical raise.
Actually, the adventure is fully recommended in the wonderfully old-fashioned point and click format, but there are a GROOßES shortcoming, you have all the roads constantly burning down, even if you get a call and it is important for the course of history, the familiar way to go, there is no fade in / out of the way, but you have all the (often large) way back race only to him a short time to tread again later in the other direction, because you find definitely the starting point must (especially bad I This phenomenon in Barrockstadt).
Unfortunately, this interferes with the gameplay slightly, therefore "only" 4 stars.
Otherwise, a wonderful game and apart from the long distances really thoroughly recommended.
(Warning: If you need wild action you should stay away from this game!)
