The Fall is a saga that speaks very well of certain topics that I had never come to consider. In addition, he manages to create very realistic situations in a world of science fiction. I am fascinated by how well they have done it in that section, and if that was the reason it have a better score from me. But it has several failures that have been quite annoying

Some of the first game's issues continue to haunt The Fall 2 but no need to think about them too hard as The Fall 2 tells a great sci-fi story. I can't wait to see how Arid's story will conclude.

The Fall Part 2: Unbound makes a great second game in The Fall trilogy. Dealing with more complex issues like AI sentience, from both the human and AI points of view, is a welcome addition to the story. While I would definitely recommend the series to those interested in side-scrolling adventure/puzzle games, I might also suggest perhaps waiting until Part 3 releases if you haven't already played the first game. The Fall Part 2 took 4 years to come out after Part 1, and with the continued tradition of ending on a cliff hanger, it might be better off waiting for the full trilogy to release.

The Fall Part 2: Unbound picks up the formula of the predecessor and leads to a new and unsettling original adventure, but there are some roughness still to blunt.

Setting and story make you think, without any moral club. The gameplay part, however, is still expandable.

The Fall Part 2: Unbound repeats all the good from its first part and the less good. With great weight in the great setting, the interesting plot and the brilliant narrative, but with the tare of the action sections, inherited from its first part, and although totally subjective, perhaps the game feels long. However, we are facing another great science fiction work where we will have to solve a great variety of puzzles, quite a few of them new and ingenious, while we look for the person who is attacking us. Recommendable.

Anyone who's looking for a narrative driven experience dealing with character development or just like point & click games in general should give this a look. Luckily, it does both fairly well. What's been said about The Fall Part 2: Unbound leading up to its release is the heavily coined term "Metroidvania" being applied to it. Sure, there are bits of that to be found, and bits they are. It's more like sprinkled on top for a bit of flavor. Despite a few issues relating to bugs and controls, if you're seeking sci-fi, narrative and point & click puzzle solving... it's a solid package.

The Fall Part 2: Unbound goes deeper narratively than its predecessor but suffers from oversimplification of some mechanics

Great part two in The Fall series, and leaves the door open just enough ready for part three. If Over the Moon continue with the improvements they've made to the next installment, then the trilogy should go down as a true classic of its time.

Final Thoughts Although I can't compare it with the first game (yet), it feels to me that Over the Moon Games have built a better game on top of an already good game with The Fall Part 2: Unbound. It's take on AI is really captivating, almost as much as its story, and there are enough gameplay and story twists to keep you interested all the way to the end of A.R.I.D.'s quest.

At its best, The Fall Part 2 feels more humanist and tactile in its approach to discussing self-preservation and how such desires lead to the defining of one's self.

The Fall Part 2: Unbound is a return to the formula of point and click games, this time with a sci-fi plot involving forms of artificial intelligence in a story that could somehow take place in the real world. Thanks to its quality writing, the plot really stands out as the main element of the game and this will certainly appeal to fans of point and click games, as well as to those who enjoy science fiction stories.

If this sequel improves on numerous points, The Fall Part 2: Unbound isn't technically better than the original game. However it doesn't prevent players to have some continuation from The Fall, and hopefully, we'll be getting a third chapter to close the loop soon.

The Fall Part 2: Unbound is a solid follow-up to its predecessor with a moving story and interesting puzzles. It is held back somewhat by occasionally obtuse solutions and bland action sequences, but is well-worth the price of admission for players eager to continue ARID's story.
