Overview
- Two outlets published first reviews that praise the sequel’s brainteasers and visual style while questioning its narrative weight.
- The puzzles draw kudos for multi-step logic, note comparison, and a helpful in-game journal, with an optional hint system that nudges rather than hand-holds.
- Reviewers say the game looks striking with a bright, painterly look that contrasts typical cosmic-horror gloom and includes varied settings across six chapters.
- Critics fault the writing for shallow character work around returning figure Harry and newcomer Evie, blunt dialogue, and a heavy-handed villain portrayal involving Nazis.
- ComicBook.com rates it 3/5 for excellent design but weak storytelling, while DayOne calls it a worthy sequel with slow pacing and rough 2D cutscenes, and both note publisher-provided review code.
