  • Strong and engaging story with an interesting character arc for Max, combining humor and depth.
  • Improved and well-designed puzzle mechanics with multiple solutions and a helpful hint system.
  • Great art and presentation improvements over previous games, with catchy music and detailed character sprites.
  • The story pacing towards the ending feels rushed with many rapid plot reveals and could benefit from a breather chapter.
  • Lacks a gallery for CGs and has fewer romance scenes compared to the first game.
  • New characters received mixed reactions and some reused art assets from older games affect consistency.

    The story of Max's Bigger Bust 2 is an engaging and humor-filled visual novel that balances a complex, twist-filled plot with lighthearted, quirky characters and playful fanservice. It offers a blend of mystery, romance, and fantastical elements, keeping players intrigued through unexpected developments and detailed world-building. While some may find the rapid plot progression intense, the narrative’s charm and clever writing make it a standout and enjoyable experience.

    • “The story is written in such a way that both those who like theorizing and those who go with the flow should enjoy it.”
    • “This is a larger story than the previous max, making good use of foreshadowing both for itself and setting up future titles.”
    • “To say the plot was interesting, with difficult to predict twists, is insufficient to describe the experience of this title.”
    • “Honestly, even if you have played the first two games, this game still feels a lot like watching a DVD and accidentally skipping 5 chapters forward through the story and finding yourself in a weird situation where you recognise the characters, but they're dealing with situations that are so far removed from the initial plot, that they practically feel like different people now.”
    • “The other puzzles feel forced into the story.”
    • “Some parts of the story may turn off the reader.”

  • humor

    The game is widely praised for its strong, consistent humor characterized by hilarious, often self-aware comedy, clever jokes, and frequent fourth-wall breaks. Fans appreciate its quirky, lovable characters and over-the-top, sometimes silly humor that embraces playful absurdity without losing charm. Overall, the humor is a standout feature that enhances the engaging story and creative gameplay.

    • “Humor, comedy, jokes, no matter how you call it, is a strong point of MBB2; the whole visual novel is very self-conscious about being comedy and doesn't let it stop from being even more hilarious.”
    • “There's still the incredibly charming and funny writing (I caught myself laughing out loud a few times already) and most of the same characters are back (even flamboyant dancing guy) as well as a lot of interesting new ones that spice up the story.”
    • “No anime or visual novel trope is safe from either ridicule or hilarious overuse.”

  • gameplay

    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    33% positive mentions, 34% neutral mentions, 33% negative mentions

    The gameplay is polished and well-executed, showing significant improvement over previous entries with fewer bugs and errors. It features enjoyable and engaging puzzle mechanics that enhance the story, offering a variety of interactions that add depth and keep players interested. Overall, the gameplay is a notable upgrade, providing a fun and immersive experience.

    • “The puzzle mechanics were a nice improvement from the first and there were quite a lot of interactions depending on what you were doing, which was great for me, a text fiend.”
    • “The bigger pros to this is the puzzle solving mechanics are a lot more engaging than the first game, which was one of the weaker points.”
    • “I think the biggest difference is probably the quality of the work; the last two games felt like they were held together with bubblegum and shoelaces, but this one feels properly polished, with no abundant bugs or spelling errors, as well as various mechanics that would have probably required a lot of time to write up, program, and test.”
    • “The new mechanic, while very simple—'look here,' 'talk to this person,' or 'use money to buy a bag of chips'—is very simple but does spice things up.”
    • “Gameplay wise, it plays very much like the latter.”

  • graphics

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics feature a mix of old and new art styles, with noticeable improvements and appealing revamps for key characters. While some minor character designs are less polished, the main artwork is well-received, and future patches are expected to enhance older designs. Overall, the art style and humor are appreciated, contributing positively to the visual novel experience.

    • “Loving the art style and humor!”
    • “Lots of new artwork including revamps of Max, Ember, and Bonnie.”
    • “Art style changes to some characters are much more appealing to the eyes while not having disfigurations that can be pointed out for a funny moment.”
    • “Would not be so bad, but the art styles (old vs new) are noticeably different.”
    • “The graphic is alright, there are some minor characters that aren't drawn very well, but the main ones are good; future patches will probably update some older designs.”
    • “Visual novels are a tough thing to do right - they either need enough branching paths to make them effectively a graphical choose-your-own-adventure book or have intricate puzzle sections to justify charging more than a pittance.”

  • music

    The music in the game is praised for being catchy and enjoyable, effectively complementing the sound effects. Players appreciate the new tracks, though some express a desire to hear specific songs performed by the protagonist.

    • “In addition to the art, sound effects are used more liberally and the new music tracks are quite catchy.”
    • “The new art is great, the music is catchy and fun.”
    • “My only complaint is that there are fewer CG art than the original and now I want to hear the protagonist's hit song.”

  • emotional

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users felt the emotional experience shifted from a detective-like curiosity in the first part to a more sneaky, burglar-like tension in the current puzzles. This contrast highlights a change in the game's atmosphere and player engagement.
