Curious Expedition 2 Review

Curiouser and curiouser...

If you’ve been craving adventure, there’s few ways to satisfy that urge right now that are better than playing a game like Curious Expedition 2. As I’m sure you’re all too familiar with, our world is not currently one for exploring, but even if we could venture forth, I highly doubt you’d find anything as interesting as the world this Maschinen-Mensch title delivers.

Curious Expedition 2 opens with you travelling the seas, seeking out treasure and knowledge in equal measure. In the distance you spot an island that’ll provide sanctuary from a fearsome storm. During your expedition, and not soon after you dock, you stumble across some natives who take you back to their settlement; this is a great chance to build up a good relationship with them so be mindful of your choices. Once you eventually leave their camp, joined by one of the tribe members, you’re better able to traverse the unknown landscape.

Summary
Overall, I really like where my successive adventures into Curious Expedition 2 took me. There’s a few minor bugs to iron out, but I found that the game was mostly a smooth ride from beginning to end (by which I mean when an expedition failed and I quit the game). There’s enough depth here that you feel invested in the fate of your character, and even once I finished playing, I kept thinking back to my latest run and what I could do differently. 

Score: 9/10
