    Mary Skelter 2 is built upon those corridor-view dungeon RPG games, where the monsters appear in front of you during combat, but your own characters attack without making a direct appearance on the combat field.

Of these type of corridor-dungeon games, MS2 is the best of any that has been made to date. The game includes massive party and character customization, and quality of life upgrades including auto-pathing to a map location with customizable option. This is great for taking the tedium out of going back and forth between locations. The dungeon visuals are great, and the audio is not bad. I like seeing the characters in their different outfits for each character class change. The combat is very deep for this kind of game, and you can even set dungeon modifiers to create a greater challenge. The game lets you progress the story at your own pace, so you can build up your characters at any time if you prefer doing that to get ahead.
    The game also includes a copy of Mary Skelter : Nightmares, for an incredible value. It is very difficult to get a physical copy of the game, so I bought it from the Switch store and haven't regretted buying it at all. I have regretted buying many a game in this style, but this one has redeemed my faith in the game-play style.

    Estamos ante un juego de compile heart y por tanto con fan service para saturar varios cerebros así que avisados estáis. Si pasáis por encima de esto, lo que tenemos es un RPG de tipo dungeon crawler que cumple sin pena ni gloria. Para ser un dungeon crawler el juego es bastante sencillo exceptuando algún pico de dificultad absurdo (eso no quiere decir que no vayas a ver la pantalla de game over unas cuantas veces por tus propios descuidos). Al principio solo tenemos disponible el Mary Skelter 2, y tras completar este juego desbloquearemos el Mary Skelter 1 con la posibilidad de ver el final verdadero gracias a una mazmorra extra que une a ambas entregas y concluye la historia. La historia es interesante hasta cierto punto, cumpliendo su cometido, pero quedando algunas incógnitas después de completar ambos juegos (que asumo tendrán respuestas en el reciente Mary Skelter: Finale).
    Aunque es un juego sencillo dentro del genero al que pertenece, hay muchas mejores opciones para introducirte en él (por tema de dificultad los remakes del etrian odyssey o el etrian odyssey 3, o el smt strange jorney si te atreves con una dificultad más elevada pero que merece la pena por ejemplo). Si te gusta el genero y no tienes nada nuevo a lo que jugar, mary skelter: nightmare con su doble pack puede mantenerte entretenido bastante tiempo. O si eres un fan de compile heart, tengo entendido que este es uno de sus mejores juegos (es su único juego que tengo, así que no puedo asegurarlo)
    No lo recomiendo para otros tipos de públicos

    Extended dialogue sections are unbearable and enemy graphics are painful to look at. I don’t expect a graphical powerhouse in a game like this but that mid 90s look on the character models is horrible.

    Mary Skelter 2 is a well designed dungeon crawling RPG that brings a healthy mix of varied mechanics and tactical combat, as well as the original game thrown in with no additional cost. Fans of this variety of RPGs will find a very enjoyable title with a captivating plot and a demanding learning curve, resulting in a game that fits like a charm in the Nintendo Switch catalogue.

    Mary Skelter 2 brings an experience that complements the original in a lot of ways such as story and gameplay. Each title by itself are good games with some flaws, but the whole package is an unique DRPG that is worth playing especially if you are a fan of the genre.

    Not all of its ideas are great — and again, they’re mostly recycled from the series’ first entry — but it’s still interesting to see a dungeon-crawler willing to try so many new things.
