    While Rubble Without a Cause can be a little obtuse and less intuitive than A Knight to Remember, it is still a worthy installment.

    King’s Quest is letting us down a little bit in this second episode, as it has less logical puzzles and a shorter story. Thanks to the animations, atmosphere, voice acting and emotional moments it is still one of the best adventures of this moment though.

    I enjoyed my time with Rubble Without a Cause, but it was still disappointing that this episode didn’t have the grander scale presented in A Knight to Remember.

    sadly,this is not the only problem though...story is weak, humor is bad,puzzles are ridiculous ,interface is terrible and it's got bad controls overall(they should have kept the point and click interface) and unskippable dialogues are a pain (especially if you do a second run to make different choices)

The chapter is however half the duration of the first one and seems like a bit of a rush job so it's definitely not as good as the first chapter but I still find it entertaining nonetheless.… Full Review »
