Kristan Reed (Modojo): Along with Francis Yorke Morgan, Nelson Tethers is one of the only video gaming characters I'd invite for dinner, if only to exchange thoughts on where Twin Peaks went wrong during the second season.
But much like David Lynch's masterpiece, this is another second helping tinged with disappointment. Having delivered a puzzle adventure of rare fractured genius a year ago, this second helping does what so many Telltale offerings do, and offers essentially more of the same, only not quite as impressive.
Ryan from OnlySP writes:
"The Humble Indie Bundle is in full swing, already selling over 245,000 copies at the time of writing, however the company has also got a new Humble Weekly Sale which, this week, includes a selection of Telltale Games titles, including all 5 episodes of OnlySP’s 2012 Game Of The Year, The Walking Dead."
After a 1000 mile odyssey to (and from) MAGFest, the STAShow guys finally returned to tell everyone about the trip!
The recap features info about upcoming PC, iOS, and Android games from several developers, as well as the usual STAShow goofing off.
What a way to kick off season two of the podcast!
The famous gum chew, Agent Nelson Tethers, is back in Puzzle Agent 2 for iOS. In this sequel to the hit puzzle adventurer, Agent Tethers goes rogue and heads back to Scoggin Minnesota to solve the mystery of the missing eraser factory foreman. With your trusty pack of gum in hand, you must solve challenging puzzle to find out what is really happening in Scoggin.
If you are unfamiliar with this series, Puzzle Agent throws challenging puzzles and mind twisters at the player while they progress through a very clever storyline. The player progresses through a series of cut scenes and "stages" were you interact with characters and the environment to uncover clues and puzzles.
You would have had to really like the first one to enjoy part 2. Still, thanks for the review as different opinions are always needed!
