Game information
Our Verdict:
Similarly to its predecessor, a striking presentation is not enough for Layers of Fear 2 to overcome a jumbled menagerie of cliches, jump scares, and overwrought writing.
The Good:
- Gorgeous graphics and stellar sound design
- classic film references can be fun to identify.
The Bad:
- Maddeningly linear, with nothing much to do but walk forward and trigger jump scares
- narrative attempts to be mysterious and evocative end up stripping the story of personal impact
- trial-and-error chase sequences
- forgettable puzzles.
