By the time Nina Kalenkow realizes that the recent catastrophes were caused not by nature, but by an unscrupulous secret society known as Puritas Cordis, it is almost too late. While her ex-boyfriend Max, a scientist, witnesses the brutal methods of Puritas Cordis at the excavation site of an ancient Indonesian temple complex, Nina joins forces with a priest in France to investigate the connection between the secret society's sinister prophesies and the creepy leader of an ancient order. A dramatic race against time begins. Will the protagonists be able to avert the impending apocalypse? [Deep Silver] Expand

  1. Secret Files 2 gives to the player 20+ hours of fun adventure gameplay and brilliant puzzles. And more than this it can introduce a few of innovative aspects to the genre that the veterans will love.
  2. Old graphics and inadequate plot made Puritas Cordis not so good for adventure players. However, it's been a long time since we played a game with such a good puzzle-solving section. If you love puzzle and logic games this title may be a good choice for you.
  3. If you're looking for a good adventure, Secret Files 2 offers almost everything that you could be wishing for. A good story, good graphics and that's all, because we're dealing with a simple but efficient point and click adventure that will satisfy anyone who usually enjoys playing with this genre.
  4. Despite some disappointing enigmas, Secret Files 2 Puritas Cordis is a good graphical adventure, thanks to a very well developed narrative structure. Not as good as its predecessor, it still deserves consideration from every graphical adventures player.

  1. If you liked the first game, I do not think you'll be disappointed with this second one either. Equally as fun (though in parts, equally as randomness with items-you-must-combine to do this), less of a contrived storyline and some nice settings. Puzzles are better, i.e. there are better hints in the game before you begin a puzzle. In both games, it would be nice to have a bit more character humour, they do their best, but needs a more fun character (e.g. George from Broken Sword). Graphics are simple, so lacking in the imagination of say Syberia settings. Overall a fun game that nicely continues the genre, and definitely worth paying if you enjoy the point-and-click games. Doesn't get higher than 7 for reasons of simple settings, dialogue needs to be better, find+combine options sometimes annoying, but the solid 7 is for nice game play, nice music, some nice puzzles, and when character dialogue goes well, it is enjoyable.

  2. A huge improvement on the first game. Voice acting is improved, as challenging as ever and of course I think you should get if you like point and click style adventure, which sadly, is a dying genre. Collapse
