{{quote|''“Hello, adventure game fans. The spyware that we have installed on your computers is telling me that a lot of children are sitting at the monitors tonight. That’s why I won’t be telling the story I had originally planned. That’s really too bad. It would have been a good story, full of [[Stuff Blowing Up|entertaining explosions]] and a [[Humongous Mecha|giant robot opossum]], but also with a lot of expletives and gratuitous violence. The story I’m going to tell you instead is a little different. It is about Lilli, the best-behaved girl in the whole world…”''|'''The Narrator''', introducing us to the game}}
 
'''''Edna & Harvey: Harvey’s New Eyes''''' (''Harveys neue Augen'' in German) is a [[Gaiden Game|spin-off]] of [[Edna and Harvey The Breakout|Edna & Harvey: The Breakout]]. [[Artifact Title|Despite the title]], Edna and Harvey are no longer the main characters. This place is taken by Lilli, a little girl living in a convent school which doubles as a [[Boarding School of Horrors]] and an [[Orphanage of Fear]]. Edna does, however, feature as Lilli’s only friend. You see, Lilli is not particulary popular among her fellow students. Even the mother superior, [[Child-Hater|who hates children in general]], has a particular resentment of her. And as if all that weren’t bad enough, Dr. Marcel, the evil head of the asylum from which Edna escaped in the previous game, is invited to the school to perform some new therapy of his on the children. When Edna finds out about that, she decides to go into hiding — and no moment too soon, because Lilli falls victim to said therapy: Via hypnosis, Dr. Marcel places a set of [[Restraining Bolt|commandments]] on her:
 
* Thou shalt not contradict adults.
Line 19:
It is now up to Lilli to find her only friend and put a stop to Dr. Marcel, all the while working around the commandments that have been imposed on her.

== Tropes featured in this game include (spoilers ahoy!) ==
* [[Adventure Game]]
* [[Ancient Conspiracy]]: Frank suspects a church conspiracy behind everything.
Line 39 ⟶ 37:
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: {{spoiler|Birgit, after Lilli has gotten her into trouble with Mother Superior Ignatz.}}
* [[Dual World Gameplay]]: Lilli’s subconscious is an alternate version of reality. In each of the three acts it has a different theme: Prehistoric times, [[The Wild West]], and [[Tabletop RPG]].
* [[Copy Protection]]: The game comes with a [http://www.daedalic.de/images/Harvey_FLAP.jpg code wheel]{{Dead link}} that looks suspiciously like the Dial-A-Pirate wheel from ''[[The Secret of Monkey Island]]''. However, this one is more complex: Every face consists of ''three'' layers rather than two and you have to match up ''two different kinds of faces'', which is why there is a set of faces on ''both'' sides of the wheel. Fortunaly, you only have to go through the copy protection once every twenty-four hours.
* [[Extreme Doormat]]: Lilli
* [[Foreshadowing]]: You can see the asylum in the background of most outdoor scenes.
