Enjoyable sequel to the first Guacamelee, being another Metroidvania game with new story, increased puzzle complexity and improved visuals Based around luchador culture in Mexico, visual style is taking inspiration from lots of Mexican patterns and animals - very bright and colourful Combat and exploration gameplay is still smooth and responsive, although the requirements for the harder challenges do require quite a bit of skill and timing - controller is highly recommended Achievements can be done in 2 playthroughs - all except the "beat Hard Mode" and "get all achievements" can and IMO should be done in the first Normal Mode playthrough

About This Game

Explore a huge, hand-crafted world inspired by Mexican culture and folklore, filled with sassy new villains and weirdos (and a few old friends!). Learn a deep repertoire of bone-crunching moves to fend off the skeletal hordes and overcome a multitude of platforming challenges.
...and who said anything about a Chicken Illuminati? Certainly not us!
Key Features:
- New moves like Eagle Boost, Pollo Shot and more add to Juan’s arsenal of combat and platforming abilities.
- New powers for Juan’s chicken form! Ridiculous chicken-based platforming, combat and exploration. More chicken than you’ll be able to handle (probably).
- An epic adventure through the worlds of the living and the dead, across rifts in time and space -- more gorgeous than ever thanks to a fancy new rendering engine.
- Bigger maps, twice as many enemy types as the first game, and a roster of eccentric new bosses.
- Discover “trainers” from around the world, defeat their challenges, and upgrade your abilities.
- Soundtrack featuring new music from the composers of the original Guacamelee! OST, plus tracks from special guests Mariachi Entertainment System!
- Drop-in / drop-out 4-player local co-op through the entire story.

The base game is pretty fun, with creative platform, solid combat and a really good sense of progresion. Neither of the DLCs are worth it, though.
