Dark Seed is one of the most famous adventure from the 90s and it is mostly thanks to the presence of the famous surrealist painter HR Giger, who created many drawing in the game graphics. As the game gained great popularity, in 1995 came its sequel: Dark Seed II. The storyline begins a year after the first part ended and you in the role of Mike Dawson are trying to forget all the horrors that you had to survive in the first game. The city held your class reunion and you are looking forward to meet your old friend - Rita. The next day, however, you can't remeber anything and sheriff accused you of her murder, and here begins a classic twist. In the game you are trying to prove your innocence, while discovering a variety of dark secrets and strange Rita's past. In the game you will find many things that could be done better (eg unnecessary dialogues about trivial matters, game controls), but even though, the game has one huge asset and it is the works of H.R. Giger. It is true that without his works, animations and pictures it could be just another adventure that would fell into oblivion. However, many players tolerate any deficiencies of the game, just for the pleasure of drawings that Giger has created for this story.
