Game sure is great, tho I didn't play the 2nd episode yet. But I am sure it's just as good as the first one was, which kinda left me behind speechless tbh. Still a bit sad, the german subs/translation didn't/wont make it into the other episodes as the first one was really smoothly done imo. But oh well, can't have everything I guess. Despite that fact Cognition sure is one of the best crime adventures I ever played so far, hopes are high for the following episodes. Keep it up guys/gals o/

Thanks Scytharia! We do want to add the German translation back in--probably after the rest of the eps have been released we'll be able to. :)

Enjoy Episode 2!

@XFX40 Unfortunately Taking the Oracle was a 24 hours sales only. We might bring it back for another promotional wave.
