a charming little title with good voice acting and some pretty straight-forward puzzles. frustration could come from pixel hunting so always move your mouse over every possible area to find hints, exits or items to interact with. since you can die in the game save now and then and especially in those dangerous situations where armed thugs appear :)
I didn't play the first part and didn't know this adventure series and had no trouble getting into the story and the characters. I can recommend it, especially with this low price tag.
PS: gog was so nice to put up an better version with better cutscene encoding as you can read on the forum, so re-download if you already got the game.
