Hugo 2: Whodunit?
Hugo 2: Whodunit? is a second part of a series of games about Hugo. This time we will play not for him, but for the girl Penelope saved in the first part of the game. Having survived the adventures in a cursed house, the couple decides to go on vacation to England, where they plan to stay with Horace, Uncle Hugo. However, this time the young man mysteriously disappears, and already the girl is forced to go on a rescue expedition, but only after another incident - the murder of Uncle Horace is unknown by anyone for an unknown purpose.
The mechanics of the game remained the same, but along with the increase in the duration of the game, the number of puzzles increased, some of which were technically extremely unsuccessful, which ultimately affected the difficulty of passing. In addition, situations in which the logic of the solution is seriously affected began to come across more clearly and more often. Some situations can cause severe irritation and force the use of anger management techniques to avoid injuring the keyboard.
The appearance of a new element, a detective quest with the collection of evidence and the interrogation of suspects with the subsequent conviction of the criminal, also does not bring pleasure, as it is implemented not in the best way and not the best way is built into the game: in fact, Horace Penelope recalls the murder only in the last third of the game, while while in order to incriminate someone with a crime, things are needed that are in the early stages of the game and that are easy to miss.
