The aspect the game excels in is the presentation.

Sharing nearly everything in common mechanically with the original Distraint, working as a story-driven journey, this sequel stands apart because of its themes and exploration of the main character's pretty complex emotions...

DISTRAINT 2 is an interactive, visual novel, horror game that deals with some deep issues. I don’t want to give too much away about the story in this review because part of the beauty of this game is riding the highs and lows of the plot. However, I feel it would be remiss of me to write any more about it without first giving a content warning: this game’s events centre on a suicide attempt and past trauma.

DISTRAINT 2 completely breaks with the phrase "second parts were never good", since not only is it good, but it even surpasses the first installment in terms of plot quality and moral. In the rest of the sections it is still quite continuous and perhaps something really new is missing, but it does not need it either since we will enjoy it in the same way.

Distraint 2 is a simple and efficient adventure game with beautiful graphics and exquisite soundtrack. I venture to say that the title goes even further: it is a journey that teaches us about the importance of overcoming pain and looking for hope in the most difficult moments. Despite being a short title (approximately two hours), it is an observation on having faith, understanding our fears, insecurity and remorse, in addition to analyzing the role of greed and ambition in our life.
