    I loved the first chapter, but the second one is very different, and will disappoint players expecting a similar experience.

    First, this is only a very light metroidvania, as it's essentially linear. Second, and most important, this is a hard platformer (much harder than the first), with artificially difficult mechanics. The designers added a grappling system that is very hard to

    First, this is only a very light metroidvania, as it's essentially linear.

    Second, and most important, this is a hard platformer (much harder than the first), with artificially difficult mechanics. The designers added a grappling system that is very hard to use, and require the player to use it a lot. It gets frustrating very quickly, especially, because it's hard to see what's ahead.

    This game could be a good hard platformer, deserving a high rating, but should not be part of the Guacamelee series.

    Какой-то обычный платформер с элементами бит эм апа. Игра не представляет ничего нового. У разработчиков, походу, кончились идеи.

    The developers decided not to tamper with core gameplay and most of the additions they introduced feel forced and water down the experience instead of enhancing it. It’s a solid platformer but it failed to surpass the original Guacamelee! [11/2018, p.84]

    Guacamalee 2 is a wonderful sequel who takes the core gameplay of the previous title to the next level by addressing every single issue and adding a lot more stuff to it, and even though it may not feel like a fresh experience as its predecessor did, it still has a lot to offer.

    Fans of the first title will be thrilled that there’s more Guacamelee in the world, and there’s new mechanics and challenges to play with. New players should go back and experience the first Guacamelee and enjoy that, but there’s definitely enough backstory and tutorial in Guacamelee 2 to make any player comfortable with playing. With the only downside being that this may be one of the harder platforming experiences in recent years and therefore not for everyone, Guacamelee 2 stands out as one of the finest, and funniest titles of 2018. Don’t let this one skip by.
