DNA: Episode 2

The game retains its side-scrolling beat-'em-up combat, with an emphasis on fluidity and strategy. One of the standout aspects is the expanded combat system, which introduces new moves and combos. Leo can chain together attacks more smoothly, making for dynamic and satisfying battles. Recommend for fans of action-packed RPGs who enjoy a combination of fast-paced gameplay and thought-provoking storytelling.

This Review would be based on someone who enjoy anime pt 2 (pt 1 is for Episode 1 XD). In the first episode, we get to play as Leo and its still the same on this second episode. This game use simple hand drawn animation that easy to follow and enjoy. Making the game actually immersive and easily attract me to the story. Gameplay wise, I think there should be some more guidance on what button is what action based on real time tutorial. Or at the very least, give the game a built in tutorial screen in controller that show what button is what action. I use a controller on the first episode and for episode two I use a keyboard and mouse since the steam page say it's not controller supported even if there is controller settings in the controls option. In my opinion, keyboard and mouse is way easier to play compared to XBOX controller. Enemies is a bit more variative compared to the first episode but it still the same bland fight since there are no interaction if you hit or get hit. Maki...

The story deepens, and the challenge ramps up! Episode 2 introduces tougher enemies, making combat more intense and rewarding. Controller support is flawless, and the smooth gameplay keeps the action engaging. The anime-style cutscenes continue to impress, leaving me eager for the next chapter.

Amazing game, loved both episodes so far! Episode 2 ramps up the challenge with tougher enemies, making fights more fun and engaging. The controller support works flawlessly, and the combat feels smooth and comfortable to play. The story keeps pulling me in, and the anime-style cutscenes are still top notch. Can’t wait to see where Episode 3 takes Leo’s journey. Great work from the devs, 100% recommended.

I ended up playing longer than I planned. It’s got that charm — the visuals, the pacing, even the way scenes play out feels personal and kind of nostalgic.
