Pandora is the story of a marine expedition searching for signs of the mythical lost city of Atlantis. Rich in mythology, an engaging story, deep character development and filled with gorgeous rendered artwork, it is definitely one of the best AIF game releases this year. A diverse cast of really attractive but very different people surround the viewpoint character as he navigates this story of science, adventure, supernatural meddling and a healthy dose of very erotic sexual activities and discoveries. Very highly recommended.
Those who have played Pandora 1 have been eagerly anticipating the release of Part 2. Since Pandora 1 came out last year, Mortze has now joined forces with tlaero to continue the Pandora series as a collaboration. The original Part 1 has been consolidated with the new Part 2 into a single game, called simply Pandora. The older first part is now Chapter 1 and the new part is now Chapter 2, making for a very large and complex game. Tlaero has been helping with the writing, editing and programming and Mortze has created tons of really beautiful iRay renders to continue the story. Tlaero told us that Pandora is now the largest game they have done so far.
Players who start the new game are given the choice to start playing with the original Chapter 1 and then continue seamlessly into Chapter 2 -OR- to start directly with Chapter 2. Those who choose to start with Chapter 2 are given a one-question "placement test" to determine if he or she really knows the story up to that point. Players new to Pandora should definitely start with Chapter 1 as the earlier story is important to further success in the new game. It is possible to "fail" the placement question and still start with Chapter 2 but that will make it MUCH harder to succeed in unlocking some scenes as you will start out with a reduced number of character points. Really folks, don't even think about it unless you are sure you know the story from Part 1. If you try the question and don't know the answer, my best advice is to start with Chapter 1, even if you played it before. Either way, there are multiple paths through the game and it is not possible to see all the content during a single play-through. Being true to your character's real personality is the best way to succeed. And that is the only hint or spoiler I am giving here.
Once it has been publicly released, the game will be free to download and play off-line. I will add the download link below as soon as it is made active, approximately 4 to 5 hours after this is posted. To thwart piracy, please only download from the official site, linked below, or from PlayForceOne or MortzeArt.

Rita, one of several characters I fell in love with while playing.
