    If you like Limbo, Inside, etc. this game is for you! Perfect mind scrambling for players of all ages. Addictive but not super challenging, ideal before bed time. Highly recommending.

    I played the demo a while back and was totally charmed. Fast forward a few months later, I pick it up on sale and was started somewhere in the middle of the game. I went back and forth frustratingly stuck for my first hour with the game before I realized what happened and figured out how to restart. So I was pretty soured on the game from the start.

I went back and forth frustratingly stuck for my first hour with the game before I realized what happened and figured out how to restart. So I was pretty soured on the game from the start. So realize my review will be colored by that experience.
    Eventually, when I got into it more and learned how to get past the area I had started in. I relaxed and really started enjoying it. It is definitely a clever take n the metroidvania. You don't get powerups or keys, you just need to learn new ways to use what you already have.
    Unfortunately, some of the puzzles are long and take multiple steps and you may need to redo a lot if you accidently hit the wrong check point. That plus a couple of glitches and the aforementioned rough start stopped me from enjoying the game as much as I could have. Also, I never new what the point was other than getting to another area so there's less investment. And as far as I can tell, there's no end credits so you don't even get that satisfaction of closure once your done.
    Still, it is in some ways quite brilliant and I would be cautiously optimistic to play a new installment should it be made.

    I've literally just created an account here so that I could give praise to this beautiful game. I honestly didn't know much about the series before, just kept seeing it on the eShop until I decided to give the original a try. Loved it already, and then read some praise about the second part so I went and bought it too. Now it's become one of my favourite games on the Switch.

    The levels and puzzles are so well crafted and expertly designed that they make you feel so clever after solving them, especially the most difficult ones. It's the best sense of achievement you can get when playing a puzzle game, and this game delivers so many of those moments. Add in beautiful, vibrant graphics and a great atmospheric soundtrack, with really interesting compositions and melodies that never feels repetitive, and you have one of the best games you can get for the Switch. It's such a feel-good experience. Seriously, get it - you won't regret it!

    It's pretty good but the gameplay gets quite repetitive over time. It's the kind of game you don't play for a long time, but in short sections, After a while it can become quite boring, but before that it's alright.

    Toki Tori 2 is a perfect little game for playing over time not only because of the format, but because it’s practically impossible to forget how it plays and how Toki Tori moves.

    Taken at face value, Toki Tori 2+ is an incredibly well-designed platformer with a distinct Metroidvania vibe. However, it is let down by its visuals and sometimes frustratingly slow progression and backtracking due to certain puzzle sections.

    I should have never slept on Toki Tori 2 when it first came out, and if you've been interested on it, but never had the drive to grab it, let this review be the thing that pushes you. The improvements and extra things brought to the Switch version make it the most complete and enjoyable way to play it (though the game is also available on PC and PS4). Any puzzle fan's library would be greatly improved with the addition of this game!
