Just like the game before, this game was good too, still have a phone and still feel's like your going through someone's personal life from their phone. I do think it has WAY MORE than the fist game, as in there are more music, which was fine all around, the actors were... Eh. I think the best actor was the detective. The "glitches" was a big thing in the first game that made it scary, and this time I think they wanted it to be more different, and I don't like it. Some of them were actually pretty good though. The story in this game as well was probably the main thing for this game, and it's indefinably more different than the first because we were a random that found a phone our doorstep. This game you either be a detective or a reporter - which only changes a few dialogue's, I do wish there was more deeper stuff about those two, like different puzzles because your not a detective or maybe different evidence because your a reporter - and you are looking into a closed case about Maya Crane. I only had a big issue with the actors, maybe how the camera was as well in the cutscenes? But beside's that, I think it really hold's up for being the second game, i don't think it's better for many reasons, but I don't think it's worse as well. It sits alongside with the first game for me at 8/10. Well, that's all folk's and have a good day or night!

i loved the simulacra games, simulacra 1 was my childhood, i loved the concept of going through someone's phone because im nosy as heck, checking every clues and hints which others might find boring which is understandable everyone has their own tastes. gameplay was fun. the acting on this one was not the very best but i love that there's more to check out on this game. till this day im still in love with this type of gameplay it was cool. anyways, mom im gay.

Downgrade from the original and the acting was below passing. However, I liked the new UI for the phone and the puzzles were neat to solve. Overall, another solid game, but the first one is so much better.

SIMULACRA 2 is a puzzle game where you have to find what happened to a dead girl thru her phone. Check her messaging, emails, social media, videos, pictures, etc and talk to her friends to find the truth... It's kinda like a A normal lost phone game but more complex, more suspens in a horror ambient... the story is great and there's multiples endings. The sound effects and the graphics are nice, I highly recommend it!!! 💗💗💗
