Quick Look: Puzzle Agent 2

I got Puzzle Agent 2 for the iPhone 4 yesterday, and I've been having having some issues with stuttering and popping audio. Anyone else?

Now that looks great! Sounds like it was written by the sam & max guys tho. Really off-the-wall humor.

I've never heard a Canadian speak like that XD

lol watching that second puzzle. IT'S NUMBERS ON A CLOCK YOU FUCKING RETARDS ARRGH!

I wish the movement was smooth. I don't mind the character animation being a bit jumpy, but if it's just panning, it should really be smooth, I'd love to play this but it was infuriating just watching this.

I was think about buying this game on steam,may buy it!

@LiquidPrince: Its Minnesota, not Canada.

Downloading Puzzle Agent now from steam. On sale now guys! Get it. 

just bought it, ima stay clear from this video until I finish it :p, I'm also going to play through the first one again because it's been a while, and it's pretty short so...

Puzzle Agent 1: 3€ GET

Looks like a neat game, but I tend to stay away from these kind of logic thinking puzzle games.

Puzzle game quicklooks are kinda hard to watch...

What Ryan mistakes for everyone being terrible at cloak and dagger stuff is actually just Minnesotan niceness. We have to fight to lie, it's an uphill battle for us everytime someone asks if they "look fat in this".

On the second puzzle I was totally with the guys, as it just seemed too simple to be the answer. Damn you Norman Tethers.

Went ahead and grabbed this on Steam since it comes with a copy of PA1. I'm hoping it wont be a daily deal since it just released yesterday!

Hopefully there will be a Puzzle Agent pack on steam this summer.

Agent.

Puzzle Agent had one of the best endings of any videogame in recent memory.  That alone makes me want to play the sequel.

I like the hidden social commentary from Vinny. All stuff that gets totally outdated a week or so after the quick look, but...

I never played Puzzle Agent. This has got me very interested.

I really like the first game. I hope this one lives up to the story it set up!

RockPaperShotgun didn't have nice things to say about this. Not at all.

the Minnesotan setting reminded of this video
  

The second puzzle shows the exact reason I didn't like the first one. Many of the puzzles seem like there could be multiple numbers. Yes 3, makes sense but so could 13. It shouldn't be a guessing game.

It's not, the second hint in that puzzle tells you something along the lines of "what else counts to 12 and resets to 1?" ie. a clock. So the only answer is 3.

Seems interesting, the art style isn't my cup of tea though, especially the blurry edges in close ups.

Hopefully there will be a Puzzle Agent pack on steam this summer.

Loved the first game, the puzzles weren't particularly ingenious but I liked the way it improved on the Layton in other areas. The biggest attraction, though, was the dialogue. Glad they're making more of them.

Those damn gnomes give me the heebie jeebies.

The first one's $3 on Steam? Sold!

Oh, I don't know how I could have missed that XD

For some reason I had it in my head that it was in Canada.

The artist is Canadian so you get some credit.

Feels like a mix between Fargo and Twin Peaks.

Do not know if anyone has posted this already, but on STEAM the first game is free when you buy the second.

yup

Couldn't get in to the first, which was too damn easy. This doesn't look any better in that department. Layton has spoiled me.

Played Puzzle Agent 1 the night it came out sort of in 2 sittings but still more like 1. Since I played Puzzle Agent 1 in one sitting i thought I'd might as well play the 2nd in one sitting since the game is at the most 5 hours anyway. But man I had such good memories of 1 and it being crazy and strange but 2 is just dumb. It wrapped up the story of Scoggins sort of in a crazy way but not a very good way. 2 also used puzzles multiple times and not that good of puzzles even. I think the most is 4 with just one kind of puzzle and its all just ugh. The Puzzles also only had about 3 levels of difficulty. Stupid Easy, What the fuck am I looking at, and Cool found the answer by accident. Also a fucking math equation as a puzzle. Really. I should really pick up Layton for the better bargain probably. 100 and something puzzles for $30 while this is $10 for 33. It just feels like they put a bullet in Scoggins and decided to move on. I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about anymore so yeah.

I solved the number puzzle in like 5 seconds, anyway will check this out for sure

@thebigJ_A: The dude who wrote that always trashes Telltale games. I think his standards are too high, personally -- I was totally gripped by the first one, and this one looks like it's trying to iterate on it in a good way.

I can't scream 22 any louder guys! 22!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No!!!! Not 4! 22!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn, why I gotta live in NY, too far for you guys to hear.

I don't get how everyone thought that the second puzzle was that clear.  How were they suppose to know it was just counting and resetting after 12 without the hint.  My first guess would have been -9 lol.  

Loved teh first one. Looking forward to seeing the QL of this.

Oh wow.... just checked the system requirements for this and it's just crazy, I mean this is pretty much something that could well be a flash game, yet it requires 256MB VRAM, the first one already ran badly on my laptop, I figured it was just poorly coded since it was just a pilot, now this one runs even worse at points... I really don't get it.

I enjoyed the first Puzzle Agent even though I am not really a big fan of puzzle games.

I am very happy that this game exists. I loved the first and thought that Nelson was a good character, but it ended so damn abruptly that I actually went back, beat the game perfectly, and tried again to no avail. I was so confused but I'm extremely happy this is out.

I played the first one and well, it's not a bad game at all... but the Layton series is far superior: More Puzzles, better ones at that, maybe it doesn't have as much spoken dialogue, but there's definitely more.
 
The story and characters are funnier than Layton's and the voice acting is very good, but it all ends so abruptly... i don't care much for the way telltale games cut their games in so many episodes.
 
If you like this one, you should get Layton too. The weird thing is that PA looks like it's gonna be harder and more "grown up" yet i found it was the other way around.

Wow, I'm surprised they got stuck for so long on the second puzzle. It's a really classic, simple puzzle.

Purchased!  
 
By the way, if you buy this on Steam right now (on sale for $8.99) they give you the first Puzzle Agent free. <3 Steam. 
 
I'm playing through the first one..first.

Going to buy this on the iPad. Loved the first one on the iPad.
