A fascinating thriller

Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within is a point-and-click adventure game released by Sierra in 1995, and the second of the Gabriel Knight series. Also, its particularity is represented by the cinematic interactive aspect, since the action develops like a full motion video. The story follows the main character, writer Gabriel Knight and his assistant Grace Nakimura in their way of solving a crime investigation. They have to search for clues in a mysterious case that implies the death of a little girl. It is believed that a werewolf killed her. Unlike the first Gabriel Knight game, this edition is more complex, from a technological point of view. You will get fond of the main character because he is smart, funny and pays attention to small details around him. During the investigation, you will meet interesting people and explore different locations. The acting was very good and the graphics are very realistic, because as I said, everything is a movie. The ambiance and the narration will fascinate you, and that's why nothing can stop you completing the abundant work in order to solve the case. I warn you: some of the puzzles will cause serious mental exhaustion. Another minus is that the scary cover of this game doesn't compare with the lack of darkness in the story. This game remains a great one even today, and if you are looking for a classic virtual experience, The Beast Within is perfect for you.
