story
9 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe story follows soldier Rokiahi, who is stranded after a failed mission and aims to return to HQ, continuing the narrative from the previous game, "Banzai Escape." While the interconnected levels and entertaining dialogue add some depth, the pacing suffers due to lengthy walking sections and frustrating AI partner mechanics, detracting from the overall experience.
“This is a direct sequel to the first Banzai Escape in terms of story and characters.”
“The story of the game picks up from the last game and it's nice to see Benci in this game too.”
“+ quite entertaining dialogue and storyline”
“The mission's puzzles are probably the only passable part of this game, but sadly there are very few and are padded by very long walking sections and confusing objectives.”
“There are these almost unbearably long elevator rides to and from missions and it essentially kills any motivation to do them all.”
“Each level is directly connected to the next, so there is no mission select; you just walk/run from one area to the next.”
