Just a wonderful and creative platformer. It's been a while since I've stayed up late to finish just "one more level". The game is a perfect mix of challenging and fun. If you liked the first Psychonauts, you'll love this one as well. I really hope it gets a 3rd installment.

First Psychonauts is one of my most favourite games I’ve ever played, and honestly, I feel like this game is even better. Game polishes and enhances every aspect of its predecessor, gives depth to (most) of its character, new and recurring, as well as has an amazing, thought-provoking story. If you haven’t played the original, buy it and play it. Then immediately after play this one. Both are worth your time.

More like a movie than a game,
At-least half of it is watching cut-scenes.
The other half is a good story with better combat than the original and none of the brains (levels) I visited felt like a miss.
Platforming took a step back to let these other elements shine.
I don't think it's better than the first game, but it's good on its own merit.

It's a very fun game! yes it is quite long as I only have 12 hours in it so far, but each level/mind is definetly worth it in the long end.

It took way too long for me to finally be able to play this game, and it did not disappoint.
+The game play is smooth and bouncy.
+Animation is crisp and full of character.
+The characters are all wonderfully cartoony, while also being fantastic representations of human struggles.
+The story is enthralling from start to finish. You WILL feel the feels before you reach the end.
+The music is still stuck in my head even after 100% the game.
The only downside I can see is the same for any collect-a-thon. If you're going to go for 100%, be prepared to hunt down that last figment or that last nugget of wisdom that you just can't seem to find. The Otto Camera will help you, but it'll still be up to you to use your brain and get them.
Conclusion? PLAY THIS GAME!!

Very unique and amazing game. First game really made me feel weird with it's ending. I expected 2nd game to come out soon. But oh well, at least finally I could beat it.

I originally found this game after watching a random moist critical video. I immediately fell in love with the artstyle, gameplay and voice acting. I've never really been into platformers on a whole, but this game has changed my opinion of them. I would like to play other platformers, such as hat in time.
The combat was nothing special tbh and was quite easy at times. It wasnt bad or amazing, just average.
Overall i would give the game a solid 8/10. It was very fun, but the combat and story could use some improvements in future titles.
Please make a psychonauts 3!
