Episode 2 follows the first with only a couple of extra bells and whistles but not enough to push it into that higher echelon. The drop in price easies the pain but a subscription service would have been a bit easier on the wallet. If you want to take this ride again, an extra Insane Mode has been added that will test you as well as reward those who dare make it through. You can also import your old character from Vol. 1 with a little bonus, but it's not a deal breaker if you don't have him. All of this is nice but not necessary.
Don't get me wrong, this is still a great game packed with just about all the humor, puzzle, and RPG-elements that an avid nerd could want from a downloadable title. Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness Episode Two is the type of game that makes you want to dust off that green felt cloak and curl up with a sack of dice.
