[Review] La Mulana 2 (PC)
Tumblr media
The perfect sequel.
I ended my La Mulana review wishing for improvements in the sequel, and boy howdy I got them! The cinematic intro and slick new interface gives a good first impression, and it doesn't stop there. The tired Indiana Jones pastiche protagonist has been swapped out for an action heroine with fun unlockable costumes. Lumisa's physics have been reworked, giving her—for example—greater air control and mid-air ladder grabbing, making for a much better play experience from a play control standpoint.

What surprised me most about La Mulana 2 was how similar it was in look, feel, and structure, but how much improved it was in less obvious ways. There's nice quality of life features, a deeper focus on story, the map actually makes sense, and most importantly the puzzles feel more fair to the player. I certainly had fewer "how was I supposed to know that?" moments. It's still a difficult platformer with intricate, game-spanning riddles, but I enjoyed my time with this immensely more. Some diehards apparently prefer the first game, which now is unfathomable to me.
Tumblr media
As before I played along with a few friends watching. Having a veteran prompt you to reread certain clues, or tell you when certain things can or cannot be solved, is a great balm for the rough spots, and I'm eternally grateful for them. I will look back fondly on these sessions.
While the story seems like a copout at first glance (there's a new ruin, which is the original that the other ruin was based on!), it provides an effective avenue for a rich exploration of concepts that were only brushed over in the last game. A plethora of NPCs provide hints, comic relief, and lore about the races and cultures that preceded humanity. They even have interactions and evolving stories that encourage repeat visits! The mythological sources skew Norse this time, but there's still a broad set of influences besides that, including Mesopotamian, Japanese, and Egyptian.
Tumblr media
I would love to recommend playing this over LM1, but it relies so much on building on its predecessor, reinterpreting things it did, that to play it in a vacuum feels wrong. LM1 can be such a struggle that I would be tempted to suggest light use of a guide to get through it, if only to increase appreciation of this sequel. The DLC is also nice to pick up as it is full of silly jokes, pisstake traps, and some clever/stupid puzzles. LM1 seemed like a flawed one-off, but given the confidence shown in this sequel I'm now really hoping Naramura and Nigoro revisit this kind of concept at some point and take it even further. But even if they don't this stands as a great accomplishment.

well I still struggle with kujata
previous LM2 runs got me to About Post-Kujata and then I remember falling off due to getting stumped on where to go
I did give up pretty easily though so I'm feeling more optimistic this time around
think I need to find an earth spear vendor so I can just get the meatballs from below
alternately I could buzz around and see if I can find an alternate weapon but I have my doubts
