Gamer 2.0: Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness: Ep 2 Review

Gamer 2.0 writes: "Gabe and Tycho are certainly not going to stop at taking down just one god, so here's the second episode of Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness. Continuing the story that they began with the first episode, Hothead Games and the Penny Arcade creators have taken care to step up their game with tweaks to fix issues during their past few months of development on this episode along with a price drop from the fairly high price of the first episode. Is Episode Two a good follow-up to Episode One and proof that this series won't be another flash in the pan episodic series?

When we last left our heroes in the first episode, we saw Gabriel, Tycho, and yourself take down the god in charge of the mime infestation of downtown New Arcadia. In Episode Two, Gabe and Tycho have gotten back on the trail of the giant Fruit Fucker, which destroyed your house at the beginning of the series, with the discovery of a name on one of the FF machines that is none other than a famous roboticist that now resides at an insane asylum. Along your path to the end of the episode, you'll run across more new areas, like the previously-mentioned insane asylum, a filthy rich neighborhood, a fair, and a science convention along with previous hangouts like Anne-Claire's bedroom and your neighborhood, though the latter is limited to just the vicinity around the house. You'll come across a lot of familiar characters, though in a fairly limited fashion since you will meet a lot of new ones, as well, including a few familiar characters from the comics that have been re-imagined for the 1920's universe."
