Much more frustrating than the first towards the end, and a lot of reloading due to sparsely-placed checkpoints. However, I loved the majority of this game, and considering the price, it's pretty good. I still recommend getting heavily discounted due to the play length and because of how lackluster the endgame is.

Nice
I've owned this game a long time but never played it seriously cuz I didn't understand you have to hit the corpses in the nightmare portion with a combo lol Once I did that, I was able to get into the party and see ALL HELL break loose This game gets really, really good once you get to that part and it's only the first hour or so of gameplay I haven't finished the original Obscure cuz I got stuck in a room where you have to manage switching characters to solve a puzzle and I've been too stubborn to look it up, but I really should finish game 1 because this game controls FAAAR better than it This game really does feel like a genuine sequel and has better tension/horror, better controls, and switching characters here feels more optional than forced... that aspect of gameplay felt forced in the original Obscure I'm def gonna try and finish this game because it has all the hallmarks of an amazing horror game
Bad Camera angles, most of the time that I clearly could've avoided damage I was just caught off-guard by surprise due to camera issues. Unlike the previous game, this one suffers from bad character design overall, The gymnast is the only good character combat-wise, everyone else sucks and will lose tons of health while attempting to engage in combat. Some Keywords: Obnoxious puzzles, Keyboard nightmare, Wonky Combat system. Obscure II is the reason Obscure III never became a real thing. The game also starts with a strong drug apology, with the main characters being saved from the infection early story because they just had smoked some new junk and everyone else who didn't smoke the new junk gets infected and turned into monsters themselves. Again, the game sucks. period. Do not be misled by the fake positive reviews.
flower good
