Figment 2 is a game that takes everything the first game did and makes it better, it takes the visuals, and makes it better. The game looks absolutely beautiful, especially compared to the first one. It also improves in the gameplay in a good way, the game is a bit shorter than the first one, but it feels less repetitive and it cuts out some of the more annoying puzzle mechanics from the first game. Overall this one is a lot more enjoyable, especially on replay. The combat didn’t get any significant changes though, the enemies are better but the combat mechanics themselves have gone mostly unchanged. The story feels a lot more engaging, the first game had a good story, it was engaging, it was fun. But this one feels a lot more like an actual ‘story’ I’m not gonna get into spoiler territory here, but I really like the story. Just like in the first game, my favorite part of the game is the soundtrack, the first game’s soundtrack was already what made it one of my favorite games of all time, je this one improves it so much, the music is just incredible and compliments everything I already talked about. The game may Be a little expensive for some people, I bought it at full price at launch and I think it was totally worth it, but you may want to wait until it’s on sale.
Figment is an incredible little indie game, it was one of the first games that got me into playing indie games And to this day it’s still one of my favorite games of all time. One of the best aspects of the game is the soundtrack, this soundtrack was the one that got me to look at video game music, and just music in general, in a different way. this soundtrack made me realize that music wasn’t just something to put up in the car, it can be something beautiful, it can be something that brings out emotions complimenting the incredible stories in figment and other games and movies. Speaking of the story, it’s simple yet effective, it gets you invested in the characters and it. Long story short, figment is a game I couldn’t recommend more to anyone.
