    Although I liked this game it has its major flaw. The scenes in the background of the children hiding from abusive parents is to me very disturbing. I grew up in an abusive home in California and I would rather not see that in my video games when I am trying to get away and immerse myself into a game. Yes the little string characters are very cute but I would not recommend this game forAlthough I liked this game it has its major flaw. The scenes in the background of the children hiding from abusive parents is to me very disturbing. I grew up in an abusive home in California and I would rather not see that in my video games when I am trying to get away and immerse myself into a game. Yes the little string characters are very cute but I would not recommend this game for children as they do not need to see that kind of thing, whether they come from a good home or from a home that is abusive it isn't right for them to see. Games are meant to distract you from reality. If the background of these games continue to be depressing I will no longer buy this designer's games as I do not want my children to see that.… Expand

    I have played the first one which I found extremely boring thus haven’t finished it. Big thing going for the sequel is the ability to play it with a friend/loved one which is especially valuable in currently somewhat starved couch co-op/split screen niche market. And while the purely mechanical and gameplay wise execution is brilliant and engaging, I can’t help but gasp at how uninspiredI have played the first one which I found extremely boring thus haven’t finished it. Big thing going for the sequel is the ability to play it with a friend/loved one which is especially valuable in currently somewhat starved couch co-op/split screen niche market. And while the purely mechanical and gameplay wise execution is brilliant and engaging, I can’t help but gasp at how uninspired and mediocre the world building is (past the first chapter) and how downright terrible the music is. Whoever was responsible for the audio part of the game, seemingly made sure to make the player think that the music is as unrelated to the game as possible, as if seemingly taken from another title or perhaps some background elevator stuff. Rarely you find these days such a misfire when it comes to music. It affected immersion so much that I had to turn it off. Story is unnecessary and feels artificial. It’s like the developers didn’t coordinate their work and just slapped together whatever elements. If you can look past that (I couldn’t), then there is much to enjoy in this game.… Expand

    Fans wanted Unravel Two on Switch and they got it. While it took some patience, the wait was certainly worth it. [Issue #39 – May/June 2019, p. 30]

    Unravel Two is a fun and unique (as far as the Switch goes) puzzle-platformer that feels right at home on the console. This is a great choice for playing together with any member of your family.

    If you’re a genre fan, Unravel Two would be a very good choice, even more so if you have someone to enjoy its puzzles with via co-op. While some of its choices didn’t quite hit the bullseye – much of the folk music clashes with the on-screen action – it offers a solid amount of high-quality content. And again, Unravel Two will leave you thinking, which is another plus.
