In 1998, the new computer game manufacturer Madcap Studios produced a terrific game called Escape from Treasure Mountain. Since then, fans of the game have waited for the sequel, Escape from Treasure Mountain II. Finally, that sequel is available in stores. However, while ETM II has its good points, I found it rather disappointing. Basically, it’s nothing more than the first game in a slick new package.
As in ETM I, heroine Gigi Loyola and her friends must collect clues to solve puzzles to find a way out of the tunnels beneath Treasure Mountain. The puzzles grow increasingly harder as the game progresses. At the end, gamers face a tough challenge before getting away with the treasure.
A word of warning: although the game creators say it is possible to play the game with only a 4-speed (4X) CD-ROM, I would not recommend it. The graphics load so slowly, you’ll only want to throw the game out the window.
On the plus side, the animation is great, right down to the expressions on the characters’ faces. The backgrounds are incredibly real looking. Also, ETM II displays the same zany humor that made the first game so popular. However, anyone who has not played ETM I will probably not get many of the jokes.
Overall, I would give Escape from Treasure Mountain II two stars out of five. It’s not a bad game; it’s just not original.
