Shelter 2 Review | Hooked Gamers

HG:

I missed the Shelter hype back in 2013. The game aimed to introduce the player to the responsibilities and emotions of motherhood by having them play as a mother badger taking care of her cubs. You had to feed and protect them, and hopefully, if you did everything right, they might even make it through alive. In Shelter 2, you again play as a mother taking care of her cubs, but this time, the dynamic is a bit different. You’re a lynx and while you have to keep your cubs safe from other predators, you also have to hunt and kill to feed your cubs. While the gameplay, aesthetics, and music are things of beauty, one cannot help feel that the game misses the opportunity to delve deeper into the heartless reality of nature.
