Electronic Theatre delivers an in-depth review of the recently re-released Syberia II, now available as part of the Syberia Collection from Microids and Iceberg Interactive.

The game begins with the welcome return of Oscar, the train engineer that featured heavily in the first title and was often a source of light-hearted relief. Oscar’s presence may not be as powerful, nor enduring, as in the original Syberia, but he’s no less memorable. Other characters, including Kate herself, are developed with much greater care and depth than the original title, though this could of course be due to the much lower headcount.
