    Perfectly balanced fights in a small package, we just wish there were more stages. [October 2018, p.83]

    Nidhogg has always felt like the promise most fighting games make but set the bar way too high to actually deliver: two highly skilled combatants that have not only mastered their technique, but can read their opponent and counter accordingly. No memorization of strange combos or endless character variations, just simple controls with a highly balanced set of rules that make for a learning curve so smooth it’s practically nonexistent. Nidhogg 2 adds some small but mighty innovations to the gameplay, making it feel fresh without ruining what made it so special in the first place.

    Nidhogg 2, despite the criticism, is an evolution of the formula that improves in all respects on its predecessor. Its bizarre and colorful aesthetics give it its own personality, and its refined playability and frantic action make you want to play again and again.
