Sept. 2025

It's just okay. This feels like a big dropoff from the first game, feels a lot shorter than the first, and the quality isn't there, especially for a 2015 game. + Pretty much the only improvement was a better map/quest finder, so you didn't feel as lost as you do in the first game. - My biggest gripe is that it's a lot more open with how you kill people, which is cool, but not when you're unsure as to what you're actually meant to be using. You end up wandering around a lot, looking for specific items in hopes they'll actually kill someone instead of glitching out. - Bugs. I don't understand how a decade old game could still have bugs, but it does. Keys are constantly getting lost and falling under the map, not a great time. - Very strange jokes. Even in the first game, there were a few "pop culture" references; it was expected to carry on into the other games, but these specific ones made the game feel a little...odd, one of the achievements being a reference to Michael Jackson being a pedophile, okay haha funny I guess, but then there's another achievement where you have to be hit by a car...driven by Michael Jackson...with 4 naked kids in the back of it. I get it, funny pedophile MJ jokes, but it's an odd choice for a game made in 2015; it feels very 2009 South Park. There are some great references, like Kitty from That 70s Show being one of the nurses, which make the game really fun, but the MJ stuff in particular takes away the fun aspect and "seriousness" of the game. - Graphics and voice acting are somehow worse than in the first game?? I understand this is from an indie studio, but really?? Half of the voice actors sound like they recorded their lines underwater and are incapable of feeling human emotions. Somehow, Critikal is the best voice actor in the game. Despite my issues, I can't bring myself to rate this negatively. I still (somewhat) enjoyed the game, but it isn't what I was hoping for after playing the first game. Maybe if it just had a tiny bit more time in the oven.

Lucius II is the action-packed brother of Lucius I. Where as in Lucius I you solve puzzles to devise your actions and plans, Lucius II is more of an arcade free for all. Constant actions and events with gore and shock scenes. Much less puzzle elements involved but honestly this game was much more enjoyable for me than Lucius I and is my favorite of the series. If you look for the same game as Lucius I you will be disappointed. If you seek its expansion, you will enjoy Lucius II. The main negative about this game for me is the performance. This game was never meant for large open spaces and it shows, dramatically. Even in the lowest settings, the towns and larger environments will give you significant frame drops, even with good hardware. You also do have game-breaking bugs that can occur, such as keys falling down elevator shafts, and I did experience a crash that reset my progress.

June 2025

The first game was better. This game has more of an arcade feel with the mass killings and is more buggy, but I'm still having fun.

Dec. 2024

Tries to be really serious but ends up just being comical instead, i mostly just really dislike the mid 2010's edgy humor. In terms of gameplay tho this is absolutely a fun time, the creative ways you can kill make it get pretty close to being an immersive sim, jank included! Obviously be careful with your purchase, i recommend being patient because sometimes what you want to do doesn't work but these devs certainly tried and i respect that.
