This review contains spoilers

Anodyne 2 combines true escapism with themes grounded in our own world. Its use of nostalgic mechanics, art and music are hard to ignore. I found myself recognizing concepts everywhere, though I'd never played the game before.

During my experience, I constantly found myself surprised. These surprises were always pleasant, never the kind of easy story-changing twist that can lessen everything else.

I would recommend this game to anyone who played and loved Playstation or PS2-era games, or those who want to play something totally non-modern.
