"What can I say? I'm full of surprises. And mostly good ones."

Good game that desperately wants to be a movie while simultaneously ripping off half a dozen of them in the process. While it’s not a mechanically very complex game, it was a thoroughly enjoyable and exceptional coop experience. Played this with one of my best friends and we were constantly shooting the shit by letting the story take a backseat and mess around with all the (optional, mind you) interactions the game offered, like playing arcade games, Darts, Banjo Hero™ and cracking jokes at Leo’s ENOURMOUS NOSE. I’m still docking one star because the story is stretched very thin and neither my buddy nor me really liked the plot twist and continuation of the story, thereafter, foreshadowing or not.
I’m so grateful there are still dedicated developers creating unique game ideas that don’t waste your time with a constant need for player engagement and let players have fun playing.
Game gets a total recommendation if you want to have a few hours of fun together.

Oh great, another lIvE SeRvIcE GaMe!

Since we're talking Monolith, then NOLF2 is to NOLF what F.E.A.R. 2 is to F.E.A.R.: not a bad game by itself, but a massive drop in quality compared to its predecessor.

--- Addendum ---
I don't particularly condone piracy, but since this game has been in legal limbo for (close to) two decades now with no way of buying this digitally: search for "NOLFrevival" to acquire a copy that works great out of the box, as this also comes with the NOLF Modernizer patch.
