It is beautiful, well-written, and terribly effective.
A gameplay that has not aged a bit and has managed to incorporate very clever new game mechanics.
Devilishly well thought out riddles
A philosophical adventure out of time, like few others encountered.

The story and its characters are magnificent and captivating.
Invites to deep reflections that delight knowledge enthusiasts and even life itself.
The puzzles are exceptional, with unparalleled creativity.
Due to its semi-open structure, the exploration and search for secrets perfectly contrast with the challenge of puzzles.
At the audiovisual level, it is one of the most incredible titles of the last decade, with immeasurable artistic value.
The scenarios are literally divine, taken from the most fantastic interpretation of science fiction.
This is a complete and absolute improvement of everything that was seen in the original game.

This is a complete and absolute improvement of everything that was seen in the original game.
The movement, considering the size of the maps, can become slow as the campaign progresses.
The structure of the campaign is very episodic and "video game-like", which takes away from the naturalness of its immersive experience.

Strong puzzle design and new mechanics add to the complexity of things.
Narrative and gameplay beats are paced perfectly and to the player's urgency.
Talos 2's storytelling pushes its message clearly and the relationship it has with your choices and the cast is remarkable.
Great art and environmental direction alongside a pleasant score.
