Critic Reviews
Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number review
Restrictive design decisions sap the energy from a series that revels in it, and technical issues deal the killing blow.
57%Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number Review
Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is the type of game that will get your heart racing and test your reflexes at each and every turn. It's late-80s-early 90s-infused world proves that arcade-style gameplay isn't dead -- it just moved.
80%Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number Review
In trying to go bigger and better with Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, the majority of what made the original so good has been lost. Levels are far too large, many enemies cannot be seen, and the mask system is effectively done away with for a poor substitute. This is still Hotline Miami; it's just not as exhilarating. Ironically, the planned level editor may be what saves it, where fans can potentially create surpassing stages akin to those found in the first game. For now, though, if yet to taste either title in the series, definitely make sure to buy the prequel over this for the ultimate and most thrilling experience.
