Costume Quest 2

Charming and light hearted type of game. Not necessarily have to play the first game. The story is nice and short, especially well designed for a younger audience. Also perfect to play during the holidays, especially with the costume designs and story themes. However the combat while in the beginning were cool, since they decided to change it up from the first game, the fights take too long and are heavily repetitive. While the title screen is unique its a bit annoying after the first few times of starting up the game again. Would recommend buying when both games are on sale! Works great on the steam deck. Achievement wise nothing crazy and only one will give you trouble (candy corn one). Easy to complete under 10 hours and that's with messing around

Druhý Costume Quest se nese přesně v duchu jedničky - na hráče opět čeká humorné dobrodružství, několik kostýmů k objevení, které se poté na bitevním poli mění ve skutečnost a otevřený svět, se sem tam nějakou tou vedlejší aktivitou. Hra je o něco delší a větší, ale stále to jde celé dohrát vcelku rychle, což je opět plusem. Zase je to i velmi přístupné, i když tu je achievement, abyste celý titul dohráli s jedním oblekem, který neumí útočit, tudíž jsou aktivní jen dvě třetiny vašeho týmu. Ale i tak je to spíše "výzva" než výzva, protože je hra opět velmi přístupná a nováčci zde rozhodně neostrouhají. Pokud se vám líbil první díl, tak tenhle vás určitě nezklame.

Before playing this I saw mostly negative reviews comparing it to the original and while I do prefer the original this is definitely better in just about every way. The costumes are all better across the board and while still simple the story and combat are better as well. However it IS NOT worth full price in the slightest, get it on a sale and you'll have a good time!

Both of which slow down the gameplay since you need candies to buy upgrades and cards and the save point can be a bit far and you have to go back and forth everytime you done battling. (2) Enemies class mitigate damages also slow down gameplay (3) Creepy Cards system cooldown only when you battle combine with previous Health system is a bit annoying (4) Power move cannot be save and can take a bit too long to generate

Практически ничем не отличается от оригинала. Почти все те же пошаговые бои, все та же сказочная атмосфера, все то же приятное чувство во время и после прохождения и все так же забудется через месяц.

A worthy successor to the first game. If you enjoyed it you'll enjoy this one as well. My only real complaint is the acheivement for having someone wear the candy corn costume for the whole game. The costume means the person cannot do anything. It doesn't make the game overly difficult - I imagine without it the game would have been quite easy. Nevertheless, I found it annoying to not be down a person. Granted it was my own choice to get the achievement. Overall though the story is entertaining, there's a decent enemy variety, it's lighthearted, fun, and needs more games in the series. Verdict: 9/10

This was a fun rpg and I really hope for a costume quest 3 or a game like it from the developers cause this is halloween fun

Es divertido si no los comparas con el 1, pero si lo comparas con el 1 es inferior, o sea el sistema del combate del primero era mas simple pero funcionaba bien sin complicarte la vida haciendo cosas raras que tampoco es que sean dificiles las del 2, pero no aporta nada que digas, o mira que pedazo de innovacion en el sistema del combate. En cuanto a las cartas, eran mejor los stickers por ser pasivos, perder un turno usando una carta y luego tener que esperar varios combates para volver a usarla acaba siendo aburrido, eso sin contar que al final acabas usando casi todo el juego las mismas cartas, en mi caso caramelos, experiencia y reseteo. En cuanto los disfraces, meh, los del primero eran mas molones y tenian mas identidad, aqui metieron una chorra de mejora de trajes que no aporta nada real, solo un pequeño bonus de mejora y un cambio estetico. En resumen, si hicieran el 3 como no usen las mecanicas del 1 seria un completa patata, eso sin contar que necesitamos un postgame, eso de matas al boss final y se acabo, pss, dejame seguir jugando y ponme algo para hacer luego leñe xD

This is my first impression review (after finishing the original costume quest): why "fix" something that wasn't broken? graphics have "improved", though I already fully loved the classic look of the game. story involves time travel, and there are lots of new mechanics. The story feels more like a reboot. Haven't played that much yet, I might change this review later. so far, kind of disappointed, but I still recommend.

Short game to play if your looking for a fun RPG turn based game. Not hard in the slightest even with having the candy corn as you're 2nd teammate for the whole game. Combat does get a little repetitive and the removal of battle stamps for creepy treat cards is not my favorite edition. I will say im a little biased as I played this game before the 1st, but if were talking technical wise, the 1st game has its better qualities. Despite this I loved this game and played through all of it in 1 day. If your looking for a fun turn based to take up some time this is your game!
