What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The new graphics are gorgeous, from the backgrounds to the menus themselves there is some really good work her and I like the grotesque look, I think the characters themselves are hideous though and would rather have had soemthing a bit simpler, a bit less stylised.
With its distinctive art style, refined gameplay mechanics, and engaging multiplayer mode, Nidhogg 2 delivers a fun and frenetic experience that stands out in the realm of competitive games.
I think the game's biggest strengths are in the multiplayer, but the fact that the FPS dips, the long wait times, and lacklustre design, it all leads to just a frustrating experience.
- Memorable Soundtrack and Audio Design:
It's way more enjoyable to play this with a game controller, so invest in one.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 3 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
