5/5 ★ – Dehds's review of Edna & Harvey: Harvey's New Eyes.

Truly a masterpiece! This was one of the first games I ever 100%ed, if not the first, back in 2016-7 and probably one of the few I finished all the way back then. The art in this one looks even more fitting for the Edna and Harvey world than the first one and the whole atmosphere feels amazing. This one does feel more linear, however, and in a way kinda smaller in the sense that you never get that feeling of traversing a huge place as the asylum in the first game, maybe in some ways because you don't have all the random interactions you could do with Edna that didn't give you progress but some charm and freedom instead. Same goes for the open-world puzzles which weren't as hard, but it does make up for it with the mini-game puzzles that were pretty fun. The story's great as well, the way Lilli finds her voice (if you get the right ending), the way how they've made the world of imagination and the main connected with the in-between after death, and Lily's defense mechanisms protecting her from the few oopsie daisies she had with people and the hostile environment she's growing up in as well. One pretty cool detail that I missed when I first played it and also in the first Edna and Harvey is how Petra and Peter complete each other in their relationship to form a bipolar disorder, since one has depression and the other mania.
