Too Hell of a Quest sees the comedy cartoon adventure ascend to heaven next time on Windows PC

Usually once you find yourself in Hell, you're there to stay. (Or so I'm told.) Not so for the unlikely protagonists of Specialbit Studio's Angelo and Deemon series, however, as the titular pair are coming back for an all-new sequel, and this time they're Heaven-bound. 

In 2019's Angelo and Deemon: One Hell of a Quest, a fluky accident resulted in the lazy young vlogger Angelo descending to the fiery place for a tour of the underworld in the hopes of a big story, accompanied by an impish companion. It wasn't easy to get out, but their next destination is an even harder place to get into. In Too Hell of a Quest, an "unforeseen celestial event offers Angelo a chance to explore Heaven," which of course he eagerly embraces, hoping for even more viral fame. However, it turns out Heaven isn't quite the paradise he anticipated, so now, joined once again by the winged Deemon (a little out of his element here), Angelo "finds himself amidst divine dilemmas and celestial conundrums that only he can resolve."  

As with its predecessor, the new game is a beautfully hand-drawn point-and-click adventure, though the scenery is naturally a little different than last time, filled with blue skies, puffy clouds and brighter pastel colors. Any religious themes are still treated with the lightest of touches in a game where "humor meets philosophy and nothing is as it seems." The gameplay too remains entirely traditional, confronting players with a range of items to collect and "addictive, brain-tickling puzzles that will make you think deeply and laugh heartily." Along the way you can expect to meet a variety of quirky eternal residents and staff (some of them surely familiar), and if you succeed you may even end up meeting the "Big Guy himself." 

Just like real life, there is no specific target date for your heaven-bound journey, but Angelo and Deemon 2: Too Hell of a Quest is already available for wishlisting on Steam for Windows PC.
