    Incredible adventure game. Thrilling! Your choices can take you down different paths... I can't wait to see what happens next.

    The best episode in the series thus far, but suffers from bugs and some poor design choices. Despite choices supposing to matter, the couple beginnings of this Episode really don't differ all that much, and after an hour in, the game has already moved on to other things. However, those other things further the intrigue, which is what this series has done best up to this point.

    All in all, if you played and enjoyed Episode 1, you should nab Episode 2 whenever you can. It's got a little less dialog and a few more puzzles, but you're still growing into your character the entire time and delving deeper into the overall mystery. After all, you have one hell of a game of Hide and Seek to play!

    The mix of story-driven game, history and RPG gameplay elements is working pretty well but The Council Episode 2 : Hide and Seek is never surprising nor impressive, for it is riveted to its base formula.

    Hide and Seek, second of five episodes of The Council, tells a better story and creates more suspense. Some game moments are frustrating and many technical issues are still there: in two months, the frame rate is worse and the game remained the same.
