THIS. GAME. is so much fun!! No like, seriously, this game has become my favorite 2D platformer ever (and as a Sonic fan, I enjoyed it more than Sonic Mania). The gameplay was very engaging and much more fast paced than the first game, though, I feel like that Milla and Neera also should've had their own campaign instead of having Lilac's exact story except with slighty different dialogues and cutscenes. It's a shame that the only character that has a different story from Lilac's is Carol but oh well. Speaking of gameplay, Lilac, Milla and Carol's gameplay has improved so much from the first game, especially Milla. Her gameplay in the first game was painful from start to finish because of the limited movesets but I'm glad Milla is a much more enjoyable character to play as now, Neera though is my least favorite to play as, not saying her gameplay is bad, I feel like her movesets are way too basic for my liking, I still enjoyed Neera's gameplay but I much rather play as Lilac or Milla instead. The SA 2 inspired story was very welcomed, Sonic Adventure 2 is my favorite Sonic game ever and Freedom Planet 2's story being inspired by SA 2 made the experience even better, of course, I won't spoil the story, otherwise this review would've been flagged as "contains spoilers". Overall, Freedom Planet 2 is a chaotic fun house from start to finish, though, I recommend checking out the first game to understand the story better

Something doesnt match here, and I don't really understand the positive reviews. The overall cohesion of the universe is not good: it is difficult to see the logic between the different levels, the bestiary is strange and uninspired and the level designed is very far from the classics of Genesis (like the game pretented to be) Gameplay is sometime clunky and the desire to do action phases and “sonicish” phases doesnt work that well That said, OST is fine, charadesign is good and some levels have good ideas in their mechanics

A long-awaited and unquestionable masterpiece that effortlessly surpasses the expectations set by official Sonic games, and more importantly and impressively, the superior standard set by Sonic-inspired games. Easily one of the greatest games of all time.
