“I wish it was easier to skip the story and dialogues, but if that's your sort of thing, you'll have a great time with those.”
“No matter how much they've tried to upgrade the experience with graphics, music, story, quests and upgrades, the core puzzle of the game just isn't fun anymore.”

“Lots more to do, more worldbuilding, and the game mechanics are different enough that it doesn't feel like a repeat of the first game.”
