New York Mysteries 2 High Voltage Walkthrough, Bonus Chapter

It was no surprise to me to find the New York Mysteries series near the top of the puzzle RPG popularity lists. The noir setting, with added Lovecraftian overtones, sets up some fascinating storylines and our heroine Laura is a great protagonist. If you’ve completed the main storyline and opened up the extra content, read on for my New York Mysteries 2 High Voltage Bonus Chapter Walkthrough.

New York Mysteries 2 High Voltage Bonus Chapter Walkthrough

As is often the case with bonus chapters, this one sends us deep into the story before the main quest we’ve completed. Rather than taking on the role of Laura, we’re instead playing the killer’s father Samuel. His son has been arrested, but if we can find his last victim (who may still be alive), he may get a reduced sentence. Note this bonus chapter does not include any collectibles.
