story
56 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
30% positive mentions, 65% neutral mentions, 5% negative mentions
The story in this sequel expands significantly on the original, featuring a more complex narrative and fully voice-acted characters, though some players feel it lacks the straightforward charm of its predecessor. While many appreciate the depth and integration of lore through collectible cassettes, others criticize the overwhelming number of side quests and collectibles that detract from the main storyline. Overall, the game offers a mix of engaging quests and puzzles, but opinions vary on its execution and coherence compared to the first installment.
- “Loved the story and the difficulty of some of the challenges.”
- “A sequel that took everything great about the first game and made it even better, from the music, the gameplay, and the surprisingly good story.”
- “The devs tell the story through cassettes scattered all over the levels, which is both entertaining and shows you the story without just straight up telling you what happened.”
- “The first game was simple with the mission of just killing spiders; this game is a confusing mess with no direction.”
- “Focused too heavily on a story it doesn't bother to tell you and not at all on gameplay.”
- “Not enjoying the themes/story and challenges in this one as much as the first one; the first game was a bit simpler and, in my opinion, a lot funnier.”
gameplay

37% positive mentions, 56% neutral mentions, 7% negative mentions
The gameplay in "Kill It With Fire 2" has evolved significantly from its predecessor, introducing a collectathon style that emphasizes exploration and side content, though some players feel it strays too far from the original's focus on spider elimination. While the game features a diverse arsenal and varied mechanics, it has received mixed feedback regarding its pacing and the balance between main tasks and collectibles, with some levels experiencing technical issues. Overall, the gameplay is praised for its chaotic fun, humor, and innovative features, making it a worthwhile experience for fans of the genre.
- “Absolutely love the gameplay and all the secrets and other side stuff.”
- “The gameplay is great with more spider-killing weaponry than I imagined possible; for completionists, this game will keep you busy for quite a while unlocking the laser sword, collecting alchemy recipes, etc.”
- “The combination of chaotic action, strategic gameplay, and offbeat humor makes it a must-play for fans of action games.”
- “They tried being different from the first part and not just copy everything and change graphics; I respect that, but they did it too much. The gameplay doesn't even feel like it is about killing spiders anymore.”
- “It feels like a very loose spinoff rather than a sequel, having very little of the original gameplay loop, instead stitching five different games together and kind of failing at each.”
- “Also, the gameplay of the game had to shift a little more into the quest elements. In addition to burning out spiders and collecting equipment, you can also perform additional tasks on each map, which often involve finding something, but sometimes require you to turn into a spider and practice platforming, brew a potion, or run away from the SCP statue during challenges.”

- “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
- “It's tedious.”
- “The objectives are tedious and nearly every time all they do is grant a piece of compound x which feels really unfulfilling and annoying.”

- “The intro of the game is great, as is the main musical theme, which became more epic compared to the first part.”

stability
3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100% positive mentions, -67% neutral mentions, 67% negative mentions

- “The game runs smoothly, and I've experienced very few crashes.”
- “I appreciate how stable the game is; it allows me to fully immerse myself without interruptions.”
- “This game was in early access for three years, but it wasn't even buggy; it wasn't even a game. It was a tech demo missing 1/3 of the content (real number, by the way). I'm pretty sure I 100%'ed what's available, and my save only says 65%. I've been waiting for the levels that were supposed to drop in summer 2023 or something. I loved 'Kill It With Fire'—it was probably one of my first 100%'s—but this game just follows the same old pattern: the sequel is so much worse than the first game.”
- “Don't get me wrong, it's perfect, but I suggest waiting for the full release because of glitches and a boring feel. Trust me, it's better if you just wait.”
