    Great way to play this game if, like me, you hadn't played it before. Graphics are a little bit enhanced for this port (character models and shadows) and get the job done, but backgrounds are ugly to look at while docked in the TV. In portable mode, the game looks way better and touch screen controls great.
    Story and sound (even voice acting) stays top notch, although not as interesting    Great way to play this game if, like me, you hadn't played it before.

    Good ending for the good mystic story. I really like the spirit of the game, ideas and relationships between characters. There is something special in Syberia, it's for sure.

    The price is a little bit too high, but the game overall is great. The graphics look good despite its age, story is beautiful and puzzles are fun to solve!

    Отличное продолжение первой части, игра так же хороша, сюжет интересен. Вообщем достойное продолжение, которое обязательно для ознакомления поклонникам жанра 8/10

    It’s ok! The first game is better in respect to the story , puzzles and gameplay. Some puzzles are very confusing and vague, specially the last part. Making you hit invisible walls way to any times. Again stops being great when you have to resort to a guide. There’s a lot of backtracking and the main character moves slow. The issue with the camera is awful and annoying. The Oscar-robotIt’s ok! The first game is better in respect to the story , puzzles and gameplay.

The Oscar-robot character continues being a selfish ,self-centered coward jerk (Maybe that was the devs intention). I just can’t stand the fellow. Visuals are goood and the music is excellent. Overall not a bad game.… Expand

    Not as good as the first game but a nice continuation of this unique story and an enjoyable play.

    Altough this is the best way to play Syberia 2, I don't think it's worth a try, the camera is atrocious, even for the standards of a Xbox 360 indie game it looks awful, the music it's alright and the puzzle and story are nothing special but a little bit enjoyable, except for the final act when the items needed doesn't make any sense and the story goes a little bit crazy, if you enjoy theAltough this is the best way to play Syberia 2, I don't think it's worth a try, the camera is atrocious, even for the standards of a Xbox 360 indie game it looks awful, the music it's alright and the puzzle and story are nothing special but a little bit enjoyable, except for the final act when the items needed doesn't make any sense and the story goes a little bit crazy, if you enjoy the first one, you'd probably like this one too, but if you're a newcomer, you're gonna get hit like a truck with the outdated style of the game.… Expand

    It’s not groundbreaking by any stretch of the imagination. Syberia 2 takes Syberia’s template and continues Kate Walker’s adventure. The puzzles swing from overly simplistic to ridiculously cryptic, with very little to give a sense of purpose. It’s also pricey, but if you’re invested in the story and absolutely must have it on the Switch then this is the right place.

    Syberia 2 for Switch is a lot like the first part of the series. Sadly, it doesn't improve any of the flaws of part one. It's also not a fun game if you haven't played the first Syberia.

    The environments look great, despite their age, and the flow is helped by more streamlined puzzles, even if the fluctuating difficulty of the odd one or two borders on incomprehensible. Syberia 2's shift in narrative focus and end goal might not meet fan's exact expectations, but that is mainly due to the strength of the first outing. This is a relatively more straightforward but still interesting second part of a series that still has an enchanting setting, likeable characters and a surprisingly layered story. Despite its ongoing technical hiccups, along with the game having done the rounds for well over a decade, it's still a worthy sequel and a good addition to the genre on Switch.
