Creative platformer with strong thematic design and engaging puzzles. Combat is functional and fun despite not being the primary strength. Diverse abilities, upgrades that meaningfully change playstyle, and excellent world-building create an enjoyable experience overall.
Beaming ray of unbridled imagination with excellent level design and storytelling.
Creative level design and fantastic character moments; memorable experience.
A massive labor of love and sequel 16 years in the making that successfully delivers engaging platforming, excellent humor, thoughtful handling of mental health themes, and improved combat mechanics. Both reviewers consider it one of 2021's best games.

“Blake covered a 4-6 hour preview of Psychonauts 2, describing it as having an amazing world and imagination but frustrating, imprecise platforming mechanics. The game's narrative and world-building are strong enough to pull him through despite mechanical issues that feel loose compared to other modern platformers.”
