    Graphics and history are OK. Gameplay could be entertaining for moments for being a puzzle. But lacks that something to really get into it. Average at best but nothing more than that. There´s no the unforgettable moments of classics indies. It was between like meh and in the meanwhile there´s something to play for a passtime.

    It's hard to believe how much the artistic direction changed between Unravel and Unravel Two. While the first game was an atmospheric and nostalgic platformer for adults with gorgeous and memorable world design and beautifully authentic yarn physics, Unravel Two is an action platformer for kids, with still beautiful but rather uninspired and forgettable world design, and horriblyIt's hard to believe how much the artistic direction changed between Unravel and Unravel Two. While the first game was an atmospheric and nostalgic platformer for adults with gorgeous and memorable world design and beautifully authentic yarn physics, Unravel Two is an action platformer for kids, with still beautiful but rather uninspired and forgettable world design, and horribly unrealistic physics. There's nothing wrong with games for kids as such, but the shift in direction is staggering, and unfortunately this game had much less value for me than the original. The background storyline was so background that I barely registered it, the difficulty in the main story was nonexistent, and the game was actually significantly shorter than the original. What ultimately saved the game for me were the optional challenges at the end, which provided almost as much playtime as the main story, and actually exploited the physics and puzzle potential of the two-Yarny format.

    To summarise, Unravel Two would probably be amazing fun for a couple of kids in co-op, but for me (a young adult looking for immersion and engagement), it was overall rather unentertaining.

    The gameplay is extremely linear, and forces you to beat levels in a specific order.Touching story but cliche.I'm fed up of this kind of games.

    A co-op puzzle game with terrific art direction and simple controls. The puzzles are too easy to be enjoyable

    This game played coop is very fun, not sure why anyone would choose to play it alone tho.

    I would say it is ahead by a nose from being a common game. Although, It is still enough to be recommended:
    -Story telling
    It has a style, but not a successful one.
    -Graphics
    I would say pretty, but art design is not standing out.
    -Game-play
    Fun, yet it is repeating itself pretty fast.
    Also it is rather short game.

    A beautiful platform game, that is not perfect, but you can definitely enjoy it at least in local co-operation. The sequel does not have the "wow effect" of original game, but it still works. [Issue#287]

    Coldwood Interactive changed a lot of things in the sequel, but somehow failed to add more variety or make puzzles less trivial.

    Unravel Two offers some good new ideas and has the good taste to be equally playable alone or with a friend. But the magic can’t happen twice and Unravel Two sometimes feels repetitive and predictable.
