Despite a few bugs, Crystal Key 2 is a fabulous adventure game, with an interesting story, challenging puzzles, and beautiful graphics.
-
If you’re a point and click game nut, then add an extra point to all of the scores. The game offers an easy to use control scheme, good graphics, above average music and an interesting story. For gamers that just don’t have the patience anymore for a point and click game, then this definitely isn’t your game.
-
To solve the problems in Crystal Key 2 it's pretty much up to you and it makes for a fun time fitting things together.
-
Cheat Code CentralA refreshing change of pace although I know that many gamers will hate it due to its relative lack of action. Most of the action takes place in your imagination as you either read about it or hear tales from NPCs regarding past circumstances.
-
The way in which science fiction elements play a major part in your exploration and puzzle solving is an absolute treat.
-
While Crystal Key 2 sure isn't a stunner, it's still a fairly solid adventure game that has its charms.
-
Crystal Key 2’s story is a snooze, the graphics aren’t fun to look at, and the puzzles are sort of annoying.
-
If you don't normally play adventure games and feel like going out on a limb there are probably better games to cut your teeth on, but however you spend your money Crystal Key II does offer a unique and pleasant experience.
-
Much like a marathon runner with a broken leg, one working lung and a debilitating facial tick, Crystal Key 2 hobbles forth making the most of itself and what it’s comprised of.
-
Anyone other than super rich puzzle freaks should avoid this game. The interface has a high probability of making you nauseous and the story lacks depth and excitement. What's more, the puzzles are either too easy or lack any kind of reason.
-
AceGamezIt's not something you play, it's more something you journey through. There's nothing here that'll keep the mainstream masses entertained; this is one of those game for those who like adventures to progress without the troublesome orcs and goblins to kill or the daunting levelling up of statistics.
-
While Crystal Key II does have its charms, none of them are strong enough to save it from being average and lacklustre.
-
I walked away with a lacking plot, some silly graphics, and a less than satisfying gaming experience. While this game is not a turkey and definitely worth a look, The Far Realm proves that it is not all that far away from its original.
-
A frustrating and tedious adventure game that is easy to pass up.

PC GamerCrystal Key 2 isn't an adventure; it's a slide show with the occasional puzzle thrown in. And we've had enough of these kinds of games. [July 2004, p.65]

Computer Gaming WorldA stunning example of why adventure games aren't as popular as they once were. [Aug 2004, p.82]
