Finished "Call of the Elder Gods"
Took just 7.4 hours
Because it is related to the previous game it does ask what fate you picked at the end of the game to adapt the narrative.
You play as two characters, one from Call and one new (albeit related to someone from the first game.)
It's a similar set up, visions of black ooze and elder gods, travels to locations and solving a bunch of puzzle that range from logic puzzles related to Egyptian cults to classics like the get 4 litres into one place from two other containers of 2 and 3 litres.
As long as you search each area for notes and clues, your journal maps out them all in a way that makes the solutions easier. (There is also a hint system that I never used)
There are a couple of time where you can freely switch between the character to solve puzzles and I wish there was more of that, but most of the time levels alternate between Evie and Harrison.
The environments are nice in the 1st person 3D way with Alien and Ancient locations and mansions all looking good. Weirdly the cut scenes are 2D and lower resolution which is a bit jarring.
I picked one of the two endings and then reloaded and watched the other one. This was one of the weak points for me.
I think it is a better game than the first one so worth playing if you liked Call of the Sea.

An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.
