Unravel Two is a charming, great looking and fun 2D platformer on PlayStation 4 that improves on what its prequel did, giving us a better experience that introduces new elements into the mix to give us a more dynamic game. The available co-op mode, where someone can join at any time during your run with the game, is certainly a welcome addition, and a great way for friends or family members to join you on this adventure. Be sure to check out Unravel Two today!

Unravel Two is a great platform game. It presents cooperative mechanics that are excellent in two players, but that can be very well used in the single-player mode. The campaign can be relatively simple, but there are challenges that will require effort from the player(s). The downside is the few stages and the story that the game wants to tell that is not very interesting.

It feels like devs really wanted to make a sequel to Unravel but didn't know how to do it. They added a local coop but the story became worse. And the low amount of levels is compensated by a big amount of challenges. But did we really want them?

Unravel Two is easier and shorter than the firt game, but the artstyle is still beautiful and cooperation works pretty well.

Like the first game, Yarnys explore a hub world (this time a Lighthouse) and enter pictures to play a level. There are seven story levels in total, each within 20-ish minutes. Additional challenge levels open up once you finish the main campaign. Oh, and it’s also done by about five hours or so.

When it comes to impressive video game sequels, Unravel Two is up there with the best.

Despite the beautiful and fluent gameplay, the game has its flaws on the Switch.

Unravel 2 is amazing thanks to clever puzzles and fantastic coop. It's beautiful and has some great gameplay, but playing alone lessens the experience. The music is the unsung hero, because it's majestic throughout the entire playthrough.

Unravel Two is too continuous that if we have already tried the first title, it does not contribute anything except being able to play it accompanied. Even so, you will like it if you like cooperative titles (be careful! It's only local), platforms and that make you think a little bit .

Two are more than one, as topical as they are real. The decision to bet on two characters at the same time is a wise one. Coldwood Interactive conquered us with their message, and now they're doing it again with a big difference: Unravel Two is superior to its predecessor. The puzzles and use of physics remain intact while, surprisingly, we're faced with a much more dynamic and platforming experience than ever before. No matter how much you strain, nothing and no one can break the thread of love.

Unravel Two is a worthy successor to the first Unravel game, but aside from the co-op, it doesn't really bring much new to the table. If you're fine with that or not is up to you.

A delightful puzzle platformer that retains the charm of the original and improves everything else for a grand time.

GREAT - Unravel Two is a charming game with compelling level design and fun gameplay mechanics. This isn’t your typical action-platform experience, as you’ll encounter plenty of small puzzles to solve to progress though the stages. Another great game for the Switch!

Though dialling back the frustration and amping up the breezy enjoyment is the key to Unravel Two being an overall more satisfying experience than its predecessor, the inclusion of co-op really is the pièce de résistance. It transforms an already endearing indie platformer into a gleeful social experience.

I really suggest you to buy this amazing product named “Unravel 2”. Yeah, you could find it nor really long lasting, or even too simple for your “standards”, but the message behind the kindness of the actions of the two Yarny, ready to help each other, is maybe more important…and once you get to end of the lighthouse, you’ll understand why.

The original Unravel surprised many people when it originally released and Unravel Two is an excellent continuation of that game. The game may feel quite similar to the first one, but there is still plenty new here to enjoy for both those that played the first or those who didn’t and just want a fun new puzzle platformer.

Unravel Two may have lost its cathartic charm but in its place, you’ll find refined mechanics more befitting to its genre.
