The Sinking City 2Really enjoyed it
The Sinking City 2 confidently shifts the series toward survival horror, combining a deeply atmospheric Lovecraftian Arkham with rewarding exploration, clever puzzles and much stronger combat. Resource management and enemy weak points keep encounters engaging, while excellent sound design constantly reinforces the tension. Its reduced detective depth, uneven bosses and a few narrative weaknesses hold it back, but Frogwares’ new direction ultimately works very well.

The Sinking City 2 trades much of the original’s detective focus for a darker survival horror experience, combining atmospheric exploration, clever puzzles and improved combat in a memorable Lovecraftian Arkham.
