“I honestly love that these games teach their mechanics through level design, with Hook 2 having its main new mechanic introduced in such a charming and organic way. It just shows the developers have a real passion for level design and their games.”
“It took me 2 hours to complete the game, but there are new puzzles to come according to the end credits. The puzzles aren't frustratingly difficult to solve, and there are some nice puzzle-solving mechanics. All in all, I'm satisfied with what I got.”
“The final levels don't really have much of the previous mechanics, but the reason for that is that the final levels are a complete eyesore full of buttons to press and hooks compacted into a small area that gives me a headache.”
