A big step up from the first SteamWorld Dig, which was already a very fun game
A big step up from the first SteamWorld Dig, which was already a very fun game. Unlike its predecessor, which had a randomly generated world (except the puzzle rooms), this game has a huge, fully designed game world, filled with enemy encounters, puzzles, and lots of secrets. The game follows the familiar formula of digging out treasure to sell, and earn money to buy upgrades, which enables you to dig deeper and explore new areas. Some upgrades are locked away behind difficult challenges, and others require collectible cogs, which can be distributed freely for a bit of customization to your gameplay. The story ties into the SteamWorld universe, and follows the side-character Dorothy from the previous SteamWorld Dig game. It might therefore be a good idea to have played the first game, if you want to dig into the lore of the games. However, I think the game can be enjoyed on its own as well, since I enjoyed the story a lot without remembering much of the first game. As usual, the SteamWorld games work great on Linux, and I hope to see another Dig game, as these are my favorites of the SteamWorld series.

A textbook example of what a good sequel should be
A textbook example of what a good sequel should be. It has better graphics, better music, expands on the upgrade system and gives you new tools to play with while removing the frustrating aspects of the first game. Another outstanding game by Image & Form. Definitely a must buy if you liked the first one.

A quiet favourite
SteamWorld Dig 2 is the perfect example of what all sequels should be: keeping the core elements which made the previous iteration brilliant and distinctive, and improving the formula on almost every aspect. Playing StemaWorld Dig 1 first is highly recommended. Pros
