In terms of gameplay is virtually the same game as the first one. However the intention of this game is clear and it is not to give us the more revolutionary mechanics or frenetic movement but to tell us an original and unique story, and I think it succeeded. The graphics are outstanding that’s out of the question, no other game today looks like this and you could doubt for moments if that landscape you were seeing was a real photo or if that person that’s looking through your screen was real, the detail is out of this world; the music and sound are magnificent and both together are capable to immerse you deeply in the head of Senua letting you feel her anguish, hope and doubt, this is an experience that you can feel. It’s kinda obvious combat wasn’t a priority for the developers and it does get to feel repetitive but the choreographs you can achieve when you enter into battle are impressive and each one is very enjoyable for the eyes. Puzzles are quite simple but they’re harmless, they might only work to remark the mental state of Senua but yes, they can get to feel repetitive. It’s worth mentioning and taking in count all the work they did studying Senua’s condition, taking you into a world where you can’t trust even in your own eyes and ears. If I can found a problem with the story is that I think the end is kinda rush and it doesn’t let process all that’s happening. Despite its flaws (because no game is perfect) you can see that’s work and love behind this title and it’s good to see original ideas like this have this level of production. I’d be glad if I get the chance to explore this mysterious world through the eyes of Senua one more time.
