First leg was delightful as is the entire game for the most part. The quality is beyond what I was prepared for. Check. Adventures, exploration, and eccentric. Check. It is of manageable length, not overly too long or vice versa. At any rate, when having not played the first one at the time, I ā€˜pickedā€™ this one up and was blown away by the amount of fun I had, it was sick. I never wanted to put the game down as playing it was so addictive, the story just kept me interested in different ways every time.

One of the greatest games made 'in it's genre'. Very debatable what that means but i dont really care to elaborate more. Psychonauts 1 set the bar so high back then i didn't even believe the sequel could possibly top it with all the modern day slop coming out surely this game will also get entangled in bad game design and monetization and what not. Nope. It is great. Just what you would hope for. More polished even than the first one. Incredible feat considering how easily one gets let down and it also helps that game is sold for rock bottom prices during sales. I see no flaws whatsoever here if you like colorful, elaborate 'different' platformers with varying mechanics and tasks you need to perform. 10/10 game. 'In its genre'.

This game is high budget cinema on the same level as Dreamworks, Pixar and any other studios who made groundbreaking animation in the last six years. This game has the craziest art, music, scenario, game design choices for the entire genre of platformer games. This game has a unique perspective on mental health issues with recognizable humor from Double Fine studio (thank you, Tim Schaefer). Absolute love and respect for devs, original backers of crowdfunding campaign and also publishers (Starbreeze Studios and Microsoft) who (all of them) helped deliver this project as a finished title!

1. This is a comedic, psycological and a platformer type of game. 2. Boss fights are easy but you will die a lot when jumping on platforms. 3. This game is completely bug-free. 4. I think the story is good. 5. This game have lots of collectables to complete. 6. This game takes less than 30 hours to complete ( Main story + some side activities) 7. Would recommend buying this game on sale. 8. For me this was 8.5/10.

Loved it!! From the start to the ending, this game kept me invested with a good gameplay, overall design and story. The comedic moments were very funny and the final act quite intense. I highly recommend playing it, and if you have the time, playing the first Psychonauts game to get into even more in its Universe and get some of the references is also a good thing. 10/10 for me! (:
