GameSpot: Exit 2 Review

Though it doesn’t improve on the original in any meaningful way, Exit 2 is still a very good puzzle game. The 22 new scenarios and three stages from Exit comprise a whopping 250 levels of puzzle-platforming for a mere 800 points ($10). Fun and frustration abound, though fortunately the latter generally comes from a given level’s fiendish difficulty rather than the slightly clumsy controls and insufferable sound effects.

The survivors’ abilities and environmental hazards are woven together in so many clever and diverse ways that there’s always a nagging compulsion to try it one more time, or to give the next level a quick try. The unique visual presentation pulls it all together nicely, making it a pleasure to don Mr. ESC’s yellow fedora once again.
