Should you play it?

Ghat's story is far from over: Zeno Clash 2 picks up where the deliciously brazen first game left off. After 4 years of waiting, the sequel to the surreal first-person brawler brings more variety in combat and levels, and even more bizarre storytelling into the beguiling world of Zenozoik.

What works

  • Unique and surreal world design
  • Satisfying and improved melee combat

  • Engaging story continuation
  • Creative weapons and abilities

Things to keep in mind

  • Short campaign length
  • Occasional bugs and glitches
