    • “The controls and game mechanics are also just really weird.”
    • “Like how randomly my character drops an item while I'm holding it for no reason, how awkward it feels sometimes when the two of you try to move a single object together, how annoying it is when you try to rotate the character while holding an item, and the tossing mechanic is just as frustrating.”

  • story
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is considered weak and somewhat inessential, with users noting that it primarily serves as a backdrop for gameplay rather than a driving force. While the camaraderie among players is tested during challenging optional missions, leading to humorous blame games, the overall narrative remains simplistic and similar to previous installments. However, the game offers significant replayability through varied missions, keeping the experience engaging despite the lack of depth in the story.

  • graphics
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are praised for their creative and quirky art design, which complements the gameplay without needing to be overly realistic. Subtle upgrades and changes in physics enhance the overall experience, while well-designed levels contribute to the fun and replayability.

    • “The optimization is lacking, leading to frequent frame drops and stuttering.”
    • “I experienced significant lag during gameplay, which really detracted from the overall experience.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with many players noting a shift to a monotonous theme that lacks the vibrant 80's style of the original. Additionally, the absence of voice-over gag lines has contributed to a less engaging auditory experience, leading to a sense of disappointment among fans. Overall, the soundtrack feels repetitive and fails to enhance the gameplay as effectively as before.

    • “The music theme feels mono-tone unlike the 80's style from the first game, which was its greatest feature.”
    • “The music is decent but gets old real fast.”
    • “A few hours in and I've noticed that the voice-over gag lines are gone, the music theme feels monotone unlike the 80's style from the first game, and the greatest feature was cut!”

  • atmosphere
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere is heavily focused on puzzles, creating an engaging experience; however, many levels require players to complete them at least once to fully grasp their mechanics.
