Tormentum II

I loved the art and enjoyed the puzzles. If you liked the first one its more of the same with story impacting choices to be made. I think some of the writing was a bit long but it didn't impact my enjoyment.

It's a positive review in advance, buuuuut... Every game from this dev has been incredible. From what I've seen in the demo, this one is on the same level. The art is gorgeous, the atmosphere is there, and the sound is on point. I'll update this review when I finish the game.

I love this game! It is an example of how a sequel should be. It does everything that the first game did well and does more. I love the multiple endings, although it is overwhelming to track them all. If there was a poster on the main menu tracking all the options and endings then that would help. If you like visual novels with choices and killer art, this game is for you. Overall rating: 11/10

Tormentum II — 90 minutes in and already gripped! Thanks Dev for this wonderful game that I am really enjoying. Woke up in a prison on a remote island, trapped inside a nightmare world I apparently built myself — and that hook alone had me leaning in. This is a hand-drawn, dark fantasy point-and-click with real psychological horror undertones, and the Giger/Beksiński-inspired art is genuinely impressive — every scene is packed with fine detail, like each background took real time and care to paint. The puzzles have been a highlight too — there are a lot of them, and some are legitimately challenging, not just filler to pad playtime. I've only explored a couple of islands so far, but the choices already feel weighty, with nothing clearly right or wrong, hinting at different endings down the line. Standalone story, no prior game required, and so far it's earning every bit of its dark reputation. Excited to keep going.

The first Tormentum was hands down my favorite point-and-click adventure game, so when I heard about the sequel, I was suuuuper excited. After 100 years, the sequel is finally here, and let me tell you, just from what I've seen so far, it's a banger. It feels so much smoother, the responsiveness is quicker, the atmosphere is unsettling, and the music is *chef's kiss, tongue and everything*. If you enjoy point-and-click puzzle games, the Tormentum games are by far TOP TIER. It's amazing to know that this one was primarily created by one dev, and their hard work shows. Oh, and all the art in this game was hand-drawn, so suck it AI. Suck it long and suck it hard. 10 points out of 10 clicks

As a big fan of the first game, I kept hearing about a sequel and finally it has arrived and I really enjoyed it. The art and story style continue the excellence from the first and I enjoy the point & click gameplay. Very Excellent. Recommend.

Une énorme déception après 8 ans d'attente... J'adore le premier Tormentum, je l'ai fait et refait un nombre incalculable de fois (je l'ai même refait juste avant de lancer cette suite). Mais là, je n'accroche pas du tout. Le gros problème ? Le jeu est devenu un roman à lire. Ça parle, ça parle, ça parle tout le temps, c'est extrêmement chiant. Là où le 1er était génial avec un côté minimaliste — très peu de dialogues, mais tout était clair et compréhensible —, ici c'est un mur de texte permanent au point qu'on a juste envie de tout skipper. Et le pire, c'est qu'avec le système de choix moraux et de fins multiples comme dans le premier, se dire qu'il faut se retape de tels pavés à chaque partie... non merci, la flemme. C'est vraiment dommage, ça faisait 8 ans que je l'attendais. La seule chose irréprochable, c'est la direction artistique : c'est toujours aussi sublime et magnifiquement sombre. Mais pour le reste, le plaisir de jeu n'est pas là.

Loved it! Tormentum is one of my favorite games and the long wait for the second game was definitely worth it. c: I'm usually not an achievement hunter but I'm planning to get them all, hehe. The game is also surprisingly long, especially since there are also multiple endings that you can get. I'm personally not a big fan of multiple endings but I'll make an exception when it comes to Tormentum, lol. The soundtrack is also great (the German metal song got me by surprise, hehe) and overall the game just looks gorgeous. ^_^
