Reviews for "Cat God vs Sun King 2"

Copy and paste. no thanks

Nerdook, sorry, but this was just disappointing after the bombshell that was Cat God vs Sun King.

Nerdook, I love you, man, but... not so great. I like the two player aspect, though.

Sorry, but this game doesn't even come close to the original. Granted, it's fun, and it's more challenging than the first one, but as a sequel, it's really poor. The fireball mechanic is all right, but it's not as good as in the first game. And as for other powers that were transferred over from the first game to this one, it was a very steep downgrade, considering you have to collect scarabs to trigger them. While this does get easier as you get stronger, it's still annoying and not nearly as efficient as the mana system in the first one. Some powers, like Curse, are absent altogether, which I am really sad to see. The Divine Pillar of Flame was basically just the Lightning power from the first one, and also seems like it'd be more befitting to give the Sun King. Which is another qualm I have about this sequel. In the first game, it felt like the Cat God was on a mission to stop the evils of this Sun King, and when the Sun King appeared it was really the final battle. But in this game it just feels like the Cat God is, more or less, playing a poor prank on them and the Sun King isn't even all that boss-like anymore. It's a shame to see such talent wasted. However, it's not all bad. As I said before, it's more challenging than the first one, which is a welcome addition, and some of the new powers and the addition of a two player mode were nice as well.

tl;dr? The Cat God seemed less godlike in this one and more like he was bored, and everything just seemed downgraded from the original, including the Sun King itself. It's got good things, but I feel like they're all in the wrong places.

Same concept has been used over and over. Gameplay is repetitive and it makes no sense that each game mode has just one stage (difficulty setting).
Yet music is really catchy and fit, and graphics are nice.
