Reed 2
SCORE: 63
Do you recall my review of Reed
Remastered. That game must have done well enough to earn it a sequel.
Family Friendly Gaming was given a digital downloadable code for Reed 2
on the Nintendo Switch. This exact version of Reed 2 is also available
on the Playstation 4, PS Vita, and Xbox One. Reed 2 is only available in
the digital downloadable format in the United States of America at the
time this review was written.
Reed 2 is a side scrolling 2D action adventure puzzle video game that is
extremely challenging. There are fifty-two levels to conquer in Reed 2.
They get difficult very quickly. Our quirky little character must jump,
and double jump his way around these levels collecting information cubes
and getting to the exit. We must avoid a plethora of deadly items to
collect these cubes and get to the exits in each of the levels.
The indie graphics are paired up in Reed 2 with some creepy music. If
you can get into the groove while playing Reed 2 then you should fly
through some of the levels. One mistake, or one mis-step and you will
die in Reed 2. We must do all of the level over again from the start.
This is what led to my frustration. In fact Reed 2 can lead to rage
quitting. I rage quit quite a few times while playing Reed 2 on the
Nintendo Switch.
I am being completely honest about Reed 2 triggering me multiple times.
I guess I am not good enough at certain times on certain levels to
progress. The only thing that made me feel better is watching others
fail over and over again at the same level. I will be open about
something. I do not find that to be much fun. Losing over and over again
is not fun for me. Finishing a level did not help me much because I ran
into the same problem a level or two down the line.
Hardcore gamers may get into Reed 2. If you like to be challenged,
frustrated, and sometimes confused then you might get into Reed 2. If
you like Reed or Reed Remastered then you might also like Reed 2. I
honestly hope this series stops here. No more Reed games please.
