The story has received mixed reviews, with many players finding it weak, poorly structured, and lacking high stakes due to the absence of compelling villains. While some appreciated its engaging elements and found it enjoyable, others criticized its nonsensical plot and disjointed locations, suggesting that it felt rushed and disconnected from previous installments. Overall, the narrative appears to be a significant drawback for many, despite decent production values.
- “I liked the story; I thought it was engaging and fun.”
- “Despite the simplicity of some puzzles, I actually enjoyed this old game - a relaxing, fun game.”
- “The story was okay, and it doesn't detract from the game experience.”
- “The villains of the story are pretty much non-existent for the last 80% of the game, so you don't really get a feeling of high stakes.”
- “The story is nonsensical, the locations are disjointed, the adventuring puzzles are contrived, the minigames lack breadth, the collectibles lack purpose, and the game is extremely short.”
- “This installment doesn’t even have a tenuous connection to that original story, and in fact chooses to go hard in the opposite direction, becoming a veritable cornucopia of mismatched occultism involving aliens, nefarious secret laboratories, brainwashing, ancient cultists, Aztec ruins, the elixir of life, and the search for the perfect human.”

The gameplay introduces new mechanics for hidden object scenes, such as moving objects aside and assembling pieces, but still retains many issues from the previous installment. Additionally, it suffers from an excessive reliance on repetitive minigames that involve aligning parts, with some elements feeling recycled from the first game.
- “Gameplay-wise, this still incorporates many of the first game’s problems, though.”
- “It also suffers from the same overabundance of minigames using the mechanic of 'properly align a series of parts where moving one piece affects multiple other pieces,' with at least one being directly cut and pasted from the first game.”
- “Some of the hidden object screens had a new mechanic that involves clicking a random object to move it aside to find the hidden object, or said object is shown in separate pieces that the player has to assemble.”
