About Phantasmagoria 2: A Puzzle of Flesh
I went in expecting a straightforward whodunit, but Phantasmagoria 2 is far weirder than that. You play Curtis, a guy trying to piece together his fractured life while reality keeps glitching around him. The game mixes live-action video sequences, hand-drawn environments, and an unsettling score to create something that feels more like exploring a haunted fever dream than solving a traditional puzzle. The adventure relies on inventory hunting and dialogue choices, with occasional jarring moral decisions that actually sting. This isn't a polished experience. The FMV acting is delightfully theatrical in a way that would embarrass a modern AAA studio, pixel-hunting inventory puzzles will test your patience, and pacing sags in stretches. But if you're nostalgic for late-90s adventure gaming and don't mind rough edges, there's a genuine unsettling atmosphere here that modern horror games rarely attempt. It's niche, deliberately strange, and makes zero effort to appeal to mainstream tastes.
