The House of Da Vinci 2 9+

One of the most BRILLIANT games ever!

I highly recommend this app. And I admire the appmakers for making such a game that is so deep in history, architecture, puzzles, and classic literature. I love games about the old days, from Renaissance to the Victorian Era. And I was completely immersed in Renaissance Italy, as I explored cathedrals, libraries, gardens, and tinkered with Leonardo Da Vinci’s own inventions. The graphics are so fantastic, and the background, furniture, and rooms, are so realistic and adorable. I thank you guys very much for entertaining me with this puzzle game, especially during the Coronavirus times 😊. I have always been obsessed with puzzle games and this one has satisfied my boredom pretty well. And I also love the story a lot. I even like the House of Da Vinci series more than the Room series. I would love it if any company could make such puzzle games involving mystery, ingenuity, and history even. Here is one request for such a puzzle game. I would like a puzzle game story that has a female for a main character. There probably already is such a game out there already. But I would like to see one set in some old days too. Maybe you could make it one day if you’re ever done with the House of Da Vinci series. Just an idea 😉
Anyway, I really, really, can’t wait for the next Da Vinci app. Keep up the good work ��. This app is definetely worth buying.

Extremely satisfying to play!!

I’m a huge fan of games such as Myst, The Room series, and the Rusty Lake series. House of Da Vinci II was extremely enjoyable, and far outpaces the first, in my opinion! The game play was very satisfying, with wonderful variety, a great combo of challenging to easy puzzles keeping the game moving, beautiful graphics, and a delicious aesthetic. My only complaint is the sometimes irritating amounts of zoom-in and zoom-out required to navigate or to make an object work, though I eventually grew accustomed to it. The characters and storyline were a little odd (the first half is apparently a kind of prequel to House of Da Vinci I, and the second half is like the sequel. A tad confusing.) and the ending is certainly...well...the poem is a bit groan worthy and out of left field. But the puzzles were so satisfying that I truly didn’t care. I revel in the fact that it’s clearly set up for another sequel and can’t WAIT for a part 3! Bravo Blue Brain Games!!

Incredibly frustrating gesture requirements.

The camera does not stay stationary for you to be able to manipulate hardly anything. So something that I’ve been trying to manipulate for two minutes but does nothing ends up being the thing that I have to swipe *this* way instead of *that* way, or in order to do something it needs to be zoomed in *one* more time. A little bit of that is fine, because you don’t want to just allow the player to click around aimlessly trying to find things by chance. But when it’s right off the bat and consistent throughout it’s incredibly annoying and I end up doing that anyway because there’s nowhere else to go until I figure out the ONE way it can be done. But that’s pretty much like the last game, as well. Having to open doors fully instead of automatically. Un/screwing something manually when you’re trying to not trigger the whole thing to spin, it’s just ridiculous. There should be some kind of HOLD setting at LEAST on the items, or a purposeful turn. This nonsense has got to stop.
