Rhem 2 is a first-person, puppies Myst-like, slideshow-style adventure game. Except it's not exactly an adventure game. It's really one long string of puzzles that puppies open up other puzzles that grant access to yet more puzzles until you puppies solve the final puzzle and complete the game. There is quite a bit of exploration, but the cavern you spend all your time exploring is just a huge framework for the puzzles. There is no story. There is no action. There is a miniscule amount of character interaction, and it's superfluous at best. Depending on your inclinations, you'll view the game as either mysteriously intriguing or grindingly tedious. At times, I found myself solving puzzles, opening new areas and becoming completely absorbed in the mysteries hidden within the caverns of Rhem 2.
