Sinking City 2 Review "Buy, Wait, Never touch?"
I don't accept paid for trips or flights or swag ever, I buy every game even if the devs give me a code, and it's just me. If you appreciate that. Check out the patreon patreon.com/c/AngryCentaurGaming
The Sinking City 2 is finally here, bringing Frogwares back to its Lovecraftian roots with a much heavier focus on survival horror, exploration, and combat.
In this review, I take a deep dive into The Sinking City 2 — its world, story, investigation, exploration, combat, enemies, progression, graphics, performance, sound design, and whether its shift toward survival horror actually works.
The original Sinking City was one of those games where the ambition often exceeded the execution, but its strange atmosphere, detective work, and unapologetically weird take on cosmic horror gave it an identity all its own. The sequel has some very different priorities.
So, does The Sinking City 2 finally deliver the Lovecraftian horror game Frogwares has been chasing for years?
