The Good
- Somewhat engaging story with historical tidbits
- pre-rendered backgrounds are competently designed.
The Bad
- Dull and sometimes repetitive gameplay
- awful voice acting and little music
- graphics are dated for a modern adventure
- only reason the characters stand out is how badly they’re blended into the backgrounds.
Our Verdict
Underwhelming
There are some good elements that shine through occasionally, but generally the game is not a positive experience.
Unlike its renowned predecessor by Sierra, Gold Rush! 2 fails to strike it rich. A historically interesting, slightly educational narrative can’t save the experience from its mind-numbingly easy puzzles and poor presentation in every respect.
