Two comments for this bounty.

1. If you don't have a copy of the game but want one, it's currently in the ONE DOLLAR tier of the Humble Sierra Bundle. https://www.humblebundle.com/sierra-bundle

2. The last big puzzle in this game is an absolute chore and really unfair/requires a lot of random clicking. I'd suggest using a guide at that point, though even the explanations are a bit wacky themselves. :P

Also, this game is in no way connected to the first Phantasmagoria.

And it's a totally ridiculous game.

Can't wait to play through this one, loved the first, excited for a more ridiculous one!

@Drymonema - Any thoughts so far?

Loving it so far. Love that they took the trashy level up a few notches.

My only negative is the lack of hints like in the first one, lol. I've had to refer to the sierrahelp site a time or two when I've been stuck forever.

Just finished Chapter 3, and at this rate I'm sure I'll finish it this weekend and then start on D.

Is there ANY need to play the first one before this one? I've got both installed

@Drymonema - Haha yeah, it's like they were sort of serious on the first one and the second they were like screw it!

@jwcooley - No, there really isn't. They're not connected storyline-wise at all. The first one is worth playing though :P

Well I'm gonna go mourn the ending of Chapter 4 (that's the spoiler-free version). Will finish the game up tomorrow I assume.

Loved the game. Some of the puzzles were not terribly intuitive, and that last one sucks, but still a ridiculous and fun game overall.

Yay! Glad you enjoyed it, Drymonema.

I don't think Phantasmagoria 1 or 2 are particularly incredible games from a point and click adventure standpoint but.... the utter ridiculous nature of them is totally worth it. :)

I'm over half way through the first one. Decided that because they're both sort of short that it was a good idea to play through 1 and 2.

Thank goodness for the hints, though. I haven't had to use them but a couple times but there have been many times that I'm like 'uh...what should I do now?'

Man, this game is terrible. While I didn't think the first one was a masterpiece, it was still fun and the stuff you had to do to make the story progress seemed more often than not intuitive.

This one, however, holy crap. This game is awful. I will finish it though!

I agree that it's not as good of a "game" as the first one, but I love this game. Perhaps it's mostly nostalgia since I wanted these games so bad before I had a PC and they were among the first games I tracked down once I had one in 1998. I actually prefer playing this one since it's barely even a game, it's really just an interactive cheesy horror movie...and I love it.

I just wish it was more intuitive as far as what you do. I think that's the big reason that I can't get into it as much as I did the first one. I like the idea that there is MORE things/people to interact with, which is nice, though.

One chapter down. By the end of the chapter, I was getting into it a little bit more. Let's see if chapter 2 makes it even better.

Finished this one. Overall, I definitely liked the first one better. I think the second one, again, for me was a bit more disappointing because of the lack of direction. Story wise, it's definitely cheesy. I'm okay with cheesy.
