In Memoriam 2 (known as Evidence: The Last Ritual in the US, In Memoriam: Le Dernier Rituel in FR) is an adventure game for Windows platform, and is notable for its Alternate Reality-style gameplay, in which the player receives e-mails from other in-game characters, including the game's main antagonist, as well as being asked to find a lot of information and clues to the games' puzzles on the internet, both from real websites, and from specially-created websites that have been mixed in with other "real-world" domains. In addition to these, the French version of the game (only within France) offers (for a one-time fee) to send SMS messages to the player directly to their mobile phones, as well as the ability to call any of the characters and have a real phone conversation with them.

[edit] Plot

The game finishes the same story previously started in Missing: Since January. In this game the notorious serial killer “The Phoenix” is back and the authorities need your help to catch him once and for all. This time, Jessica Moses is searching for her missing brother, Adrian; who suddenly disappeared 6 years ago. On the other hand, Jack Lorski, the Journalist who had been previously kidnapped in Part I of the game is found dead and mutilated. A couple of weeks later, the authorities received another DVD from the Phoenix full of clues, murders and Jessica's movie with different riddles and engimas. In order to stop him, you have to play his game.

The puzzles are similar in nature to those of the previous game, which incorporations from newer services and websites, such as Google Earth and Mapquest. Several features are carried over from the previous game, such as a the 8 mm film that was central to the previous game, as well as many improvements, including the ability to replay video clips that had previously been seen, which frustrated many fans who operated under the premise that the clips contained clues, but could only be viewed once.
