Infinite Bits Review: Loco Roco 2

Loco Roco 2 is the quintessential videogame sequel. IMO this is what game franchises should aspire to do: creating follow-up games which follow from the original, but really expand upon it. All too often sequel games are either just straight continuations on their predecessor (expansion pack anyone?) or worse, awkward re-imagining’s of the original concept–because clearly there are no new ideas. LocoRoco 2 breaks this mold by taking what worked in the original, and truly adding to it. The mechanics are basically the same, the game feels familiar; but there are new enemies, environments and challenges to overcome, along with a new character and new resources at your disposal.
