Haluz 2, the sequel to the surreal Samorost-like point-and-click adventure Haluz, is now entirely free! When it was first released in August, players could experience the first half of the game and pay a modest fee to access the second chapter. Now the creator of Haluz, Tomas, sends word that both versions are available online for the low low cost of absolutely nothing.
Haluz 2 follows the basic puzzle-type layout of Samorost, Hapland, and Warbears where you attempt to guide a character through the environment by clicking on-screen objects. For example, in order to move a makeshift elevator to the top of a tree, you might have to wake a sleeping bird at the right time, flip a switch, or do something even more creative. It's very Rube Goldberg-esque at times, and you can't help but smile at some of the solutions to these odd puzzles.
Overall, the levels aren't very difficult to solve, it's usually just a matter of finding what to click and then clicking it at the right time or in the right order. But Haluz isn't about bending your brain, it's about the sheer delight of navigating a beautifully rendered world and grinning along the way. It's a treat for your eyes and ears, and now completely free! Play Haluz 2.2.
Haluz 2.2 walkthrough now available!
Comments (may contain spoilers)
the walkthrough that's posted doesn't go to the end of the game... I'm on some part way past that and now I'm stuck.
As for the walkthrough linked above, that was posted to the Haluz 2 thread from August last year. It appears some new content has been added since then, or perhaps that's the part that wasn't free before?
I see.
Well, I figured the part out where I was stuck, and it turned out to be the last part before the end. Good game, but it seems so many other creatures are punished throughout the game, heh.
I exited form this game after several levels accidentaly. Could someone put up some level names so I could get to the part I was on? It was the one with the old woman in the rocking chair.
where are you stuck?
Nevermind, I didn'r read the whole message. This doesn't really need a walkthrough. Even for the now new free section. Great visuals, interesting choices for music.
Here's the level codes:

JASKYNA
LANOVKA
STROMODED
MASOZRAVKY
TUKAN
RAFFLESIA
VTAK
HUBA
STRIGA
DEDO
VYTAH
LENOCHOD
RYBA
Stuck on the level with the spider looking thing with snapping claws. Right after he unlocks the tree...
First time posting - hope this doesnt duplicate. Im stuck on Ryba - the guy is blowing his hair - nothing seems available to click. Any help would be appreciated!
Stuck on the last(?) level, with the electric battery mixing pots.... :(
I'm stuck on the Dedo level - old woman in rocker. I see the arrow, and I see I can move the cane around but nothing else is happening.
Nevermind.
I'm with you, Dave.

OK finished.
For L:

Thanks Nipsy, will load the game again and try. I don't recall a salmon can - must have missed it earlier!
I'm stuck in the same place as michelle...all I can do is

Any idea how to get the battery to work in the last level? All the other levels were easy, I just don't get this one...
For michelle and Flower:

Thanks Nipsy. :o) That was VERY helpful.
What do i do with the big fish and the glowing bulb and the upside down bottle that i keep moving up and down?

Noticed that some of you were stuck on the last level, here is how to beat it:

The Power of Posting!
For anybody else stuck with the rocking chair:

thank you Rahari. i got it
Sorry for my error. On my post above where it says "Swing can again then click crab machine..." it should read "Swing can again by clicking crab machine"
also, after you have messed around with the cane (see DeeBee's spoiler)

on DEDO lvel i put the cane on brown thing and rocked chair, then what someone please help.....
im at the part when all i can click is the butterfly and the spider(?) is hopping across the screen
i try timing them but that doesnt work
why does it have to be so short?
I love games like this. It reminds me a lot of Anika's Odyssey.
Is anyone else with a touchpad having trouble with the raflesia level? I think this was the last one in the original version in August. For some reason, I can NOT make it work!!!
Sorry Bob but I did everything like you said up ot where I've clicked the bottom of the can and moved it up and down a zillion times but still can't click the crab...aaahhhrrg
NVM.... power of posting finished
i'm stuck at lenochod level... just don't understand it! i'm trying to get the butterfly hit by the spider but nothing happens...
nevermind... got it!
Although mariolinamay did get through the Lenochod level, I was stuck there for a while, so here's a spoiler for anyone else who's also stuck.



I guess I don't know what I'm doing on the last level. I mix the water for the battery, but nothing happens. I can lift the salmon can up and down, but that's it. Do I need to put the can all the way down in the water?
im stuck on the part with the witch. what do i do with the toadstool?
nvm, i got it
On the DEDO level, I've

Fishy -

Beautiful little game, I like it a lot.
Hello!
Do you know what word I HATE most in the English language?















Oh wait... Oh no! They are already ... in ... control.
This is my first time getting to the very end with no help and well darn it that's blown to smithereens.
Anyway, a real answer would be appreciated since I am feeling much better now. Screaming can be good therapy at times. Too bad I was in a library...
Stuck on Rafflesia. I've clicked the clipper with the red ball and then the pitcher tied below it a gazillion times and it never seems to work, even when it seems like the ball should go right in. What am I doing wrong?
Also, I've clicked the fly and then the chameleon with no results.
Oh Kay...
RYBA
The little one eyed creature is using the



He only has three hairs. How long is it going to take?
?
If you are on RYBA and the little one eyed creature is still




You will have to start the level over. When you click on the crabs left side the second time and he grabs the can but it DOES NOT knock the hair dryer in the water... the level is stuck and you have to start it over.
When you short out the battery that opens the door, then click on the left red button above the crab two times to lower it in the water then click on the right red button to raise it back up.
THEN click on the crab's left side ONCE and it will grab the can and it will swing to the one eyed creature. It will then get a hair dryer from somewhere and start drying it's three hairs.
THEN click on the left side of the crab again and the hair dryer falls in the water and shorts out the flash light fish and it dies.
Then the game will finish and it is beautiful.
I'm having trouble with loading the game. the start's fine, but I can't go past

ok all better now.
AAARGGGGHHHH! I just wrote a long comment about my frustration and it got destroyed by the captcha. No way to get it back.
To put it shortly and without appreciable spoilers,
(a) the timing puzzle in LENOCHOD seems to require clicking in an extremely small space where the cursor is active for about a microsecond
(b) I'm sick of it and I quit
(c) the impossibility of the timing puzzle made it difficult to figure out if I was even doing the right thing
(d) too many point-and-click designers include a timing puzzle like this. Think about it! I wanted to play a game that was entirely "you must click the mouse at this precise instant" I'd play "Click once a minute"! Timing puzzles are OK but you should either make them forgiving, build up the difficulty gradually, or explicitly make your game impossible like Hapland (which also gives you some reward if you click at the wrong time, with animation). I play point-and-click to exercise my mind, not my reflexes.
(And if it's a browser/computer issue, DESIGN A GAME THAT WORKS IN ALL BROWSERS. Though I've tried this in Firefox and Safari.)
[Edit: Sorry, Matt, about the captcha issue. If you create an account with us your comments will appear immediately and you'll never have to deal with the captcha again. cheers. -Jay]
Cute ending!

Level: Striga.

Whaty a truely lovely game this is! Full of humour, very creative, and the creator if this game (and also the first one) has a very incisive mind. Beautiful graphics and adorbale to play.
Is it impossible to do this game with just a touchpad on a laptop? I am having the same problems as others with catching the red ball in the pitcher. Has anyone figured this out?
