Really lackluster title

First things first. I've played this on Xbox, not on PC. Imo first was fairly decend adventure/walking sim so I had quite high expectations for this one. But in short it sucked. There's quite a lot of backtracking to conceal small gameplay area. Story is only thing that semi-succeeded me (in the beginning hour or two) playing this through and part of me waited throughout when things really kick in, but it doesn't. Puzzles are ok at best. Luckily game is quite short to not waste much time for it. Very boring and anti-climatic experience. Absolute skip unless you're huge fan of walking sims. Oh and that survival aspect that is advertized is virtually non-existant feature at all and even the "scares" failed constantly.

Only for hardcore fans off the original

I loved the original Kona for the most part -- everything but the ending. The main part of that game was full of mystery and storytelling, with a semi-open world and soft survival mechanics that made it thrilling and created a satisfying sense of exploration. Until you unfreeze the ice-wall, and then it descended into a pointless chase game by the wendigo to the end. Kona II is sort of a reversal; here, the main game is fairly boring, but it has a pretty exciting finale. I wish this fina sequence had been placed on the original game, and not have two games. Look, Kona II is beautiful, it's polished, it has great narration and music. But whereas the original game hinged on mysterious supernatural happenings, this game tries to explain them all away with a sci-fi explanation about corrupt corporations and Frankenstein-esque meddling. It ruins the horror of the first game. And unlike the original, here the exploration is mostly linear and tendious. No clever puzzle solving, no piecing-together contraptions. The survival elements too are mostly extraneous; I never felt in danger of death at any point. The weapons are massively overpowered, and the enemies occasional and unthreatening. The vehicles look and feel great -- a motorboat and a dog sled -- but there's nothing interesting to do with them except go from A to B. Again, the original game is really good, and if you're super into this studio and their games, then by all means play the sequel. But it's nowhere near as good a story or as absorbing gameplay.

It's not just like Kona, but it's great!

I haven't finished playing yet but for now I can say that the game is really atmospheric - and I mean *really*. The music and sound design are awesome, the vibe pretty spooky. I like the full narration and appreciate that the player can choose between 3 difficulty options, and 2 "levels" of narration. The story seems engaging, I really like the world building. I'd say it's different from the original Kona, but it's still a very nice game. My only issue is with the controls but that might be because I'm using mouse+keyboard, it might be better with a controller. Still, overall it's a very cool game!
