Originally released for the Playstation 4, and later for the Nintendo Switch, Mary Skelter 2 found its way into PCs on January 13th. The title developed and published by Compile Heart, Idea Factory, and Ghostlight is a dungeon-crawling RPG. Players will be met with challenges, puzzle-solving, and strategic turn-based combat throughout the entire title.

The Walls Are Alive

Mary Skelter 2, is an alternate story of the first title of the franchise Mary Skelter: Nightmares, and it largely follows the same formula as its predecessors. Most versions of Mary Skelter 2 have a remake of Mary Skelter: Nightmares, and it is highly recommended that players play the original game before starting their journey with this game. The game tells the tale of the Blood-Maidens powerful fairy-tale-like characters that are trying to escape The Jail while being constantly chased by monsters.

The story illustrates informs us that The Jail is a living prison, that is ridden with Marchens, and Nightmares terrible creatures that feed people to the prison itself. The game begins when a group of humans goes on a mission to save a girl named Alice and a young man named Jack, but when their efforts become pointless, they set out to challenge fate. And here is where players jump in, guiding a group of prisoners through the halls in an attempt to cheat certain death. Escape Your Fate, But Don’t Escape Your Legacy.

This first-person dungeon crawlers is extremely similar to other games of the same genre, that have originated in Japan. It has clear visual and gameplays influences from JRPG, throughout the entire game. From the characters, menus, combat, skills, and art everything screams JRPG. And that’s actually fine, because everything looks polished, and well designed. Developers had a clear goal, and clearly achieved it.

This sequel has at least five unique, and new mechanics that differentiate it from its predecessor. Even if, it isn’t enough to stand entirely apart on its own, the game has its own identity aside from the successful first title. Mary Skelter 2 doesn’t truly bring enough novelty to the table, and might not meet the expectations from players of the original in the same fashion. But, there’s enough here to attract and convince veteran players.

Mary Skelter 2 offers good mechanics, and a decent variety of classes, weapons, and characters for everyone. As you progress, you’ll undoubtedly notice that not everything is balanced in a way that allows ease of progression in whichever way you so choose to play the game. The combat system and dungeons themselves remain fairly simple and direct, which makes the game accessible to everyone, but also transforms the title into something hardcore gamers might not enjoy, or get quickly tired of.

SUMMARY

This is a game for a very specific niche of players, in fact, I would go as far to say that liking JRPGs and Dungeon-Crawlers is a must. But, people who will truly love this game are those who enjoy Idea Factory games. The game has faced some criticism but has since received support and update from devs which corrected most performance, and graphic issues once reported.
