Finally got around to playing this game after replaying the hell out of the first one a good few times. It goes insane.

It's a crazy pretty game, the visual style is just perfect, they went for something different than the first game and they just nailed it dude, I would stop moving sometimes to just look at stuff, it is GREAT. Every area is just full of detail and personality and stuff it ROCKS.

The new characters are all just really nice, there's a lot more going on than in the previous game, I love Lolo she's epic awesome she's Lammy coded... I used to think the design for Klonoa himself was weaker than the og but honestly they were kinda cooking with his fresh new look...

Music is incredible just like before, lot of variety in sounds and it's just really cool all around. There were a lil couple instances of penis music later in the game but not enough to really complain about it.

I loved that bit in the first game where after you finished a level you'd get a lil tune depending on how many guys you saved and it's not here and it made me sad ngl I love the lil music guys.

As for gameplay they added a lot of cool new mechanics and they really take advantage of em and it makes for really cool puzzle platforming, was having a blast, but I kinda didn't fuck with the gimmick board stages that much? Not that they're bad they're just whatever I guess.

All in all it was a really damn good game, I just kinda liked the first one more, it felt more consistently good even if 2 goes harder in some areas.

Also with it all being 3d models you'd think it'd translate better than the first game to that phantasy reverie remaster but NO they just fucked it up BAD holy cow. Please play the og if you do ever play it PLEASE.
