Fish Fillets 2 is the fantastic sequel to the puzzle game from Altar Games where your two fish and other friendly helper has to solve puzzles to get out of rooms. Fish Fillets 2 uses a unique story line very reminiscent of X Files where you use two fish moving objects to mostly get out of rooms.

In some of the more unique puzzles you not only have to negotiate your way using the two stars of the game, Max Flounder and Tina Guppy, but you get to rescue another character who helps you out with your puzzles. Mostly using logic you need to move items around in the maze like rooms to find your way out. Each fish and the crab you get later will have unique abilities like Flounder can move pipes while the smaller Guppy cannot.

The story line is cute and can be really funny at times. The game is interspersed with comedy and the voices are very well done. The story line has the two agent fish trying to solve some mysterious disappearances among the aquatic community. Using your superior human intelligence you need to lead the two fishy agents through the puzzle rooms to find the culprit of the disappearances, Jack the Fisher.

After solving several puzzles you find the latest victim of the kid, no fish, no sea life nappings in the form of Virgil Crab, brother of King Crab. The F.I.N. agents, I have no clue what F.I.N. stands for, find out soon enough that the Fisher is not the culprit but the mystery lies deeper. The game involves a lot of logic puzzles, 112 rooms to be exact.

In some of the rooms you will find not only your main objective of getting out or rescuing your third helper but these cute little starfish to get to. If you get to enough starfish during your solving you earn wildcards that can be used to unlock any room you find too hard to solve. There are 80 starfish throughout the game so finding enough to unlock several rooms that are just stumping you is not very difficult.
