Critic Reviews for Guacamelee! 2
Colourful, characterful and disarmingly charming, Guacamelee 2 is a hit.
Guacamelee 2 is a hilarious, challenging, and rewarding follow-up to Drinkbox's original. It expands on the first's ideas in so many great ways, and marries a complex but understandable set of moves to both its combat and platforming.
Guacamelee 2 is another champion-grade Metroidvania, provided you can handle some corny humor and retreading of old mechanics.
Only a small improvement on the first game but this is still one of the most original Metroidvanias around, in terms of both its setting and its gameplay.
Guacamelee 2 nails the Metroid formula while including its own style of combat and a great sense of humor
Guacamelee 2 doubles down on what worked in the original and presents the most formidable challenges yet.
Guacamelee 2 builds on the same charm and platforming core as the first game.
