Iterating on the first game, The Room Two adds multiple puzzle boxes per room to the equation. Like the first, it is gorgeous and nice to play through. The 'lens' in this game I find considerably more noticeable and irritating however it is not really that bad. This game starts to move away from puzzle box and moves toward puzzle which can be seen as a negative by some. my only complaints from this edition were the longish switching animations and THAT DAMN TYPEWRITER; LETS WRITE A 107 LETTER WORD ON IT AND WAIT 4 YEARS FOR IT TO WRITE ITS RESPONSE

I've always liked puzzle boxes. So when I found out I could do a nice intricate one on my PC I immediately went for it. Its always satisfying to find that one piece or unlock that one puzzle that sends a cascade towards opening the box fully.
Game is gorgeous and the controls feel intuitive enough, my only complaint is when animations cover when you think you can interact with something, but that happens rarely in the first edition of this game. People might say this is not worth the asking price, but for a beautiful one off experience it is more than worth it, and encourages the devs to keep up the good work. Some will say that it is too easy and that just clicking everything will get you places, but that is kinda the point, to try everything, to get the thing to unfold and release its secrets, as for difficulty, some thought out of the box is needed.
I suggest turning hints off especially for the first and second game as the two are more puzzle box experiences than the third. but if you chose to leave the hints on, they point you in the correct direction but in a reasonable subtle way - instead of "put the key into this section", it is more along the lines of "That key might be useful" "I wonder if it fits this hole" "stick the key.. etc".

This game is a fine intro into the room series and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys puzzles.

Very nice, puzzles as good as the first, decent graphics on full settings, ran very smooth on a gtx 770. not ultrawide friendly sadly :(

Look forward to the 3rd sequel

Not exactly sure why this was a stand-alone dlc, this could have easily fit into SRIV and would have had the added bonus of adding mechanics such as wings to SRIV.

Missions follow very similar style to SRIV but have their own twists.

Unlike others in the SR series, money is very limited at the end, making 100%ing difficult but not impossible. Similar to other SR games, weapon/power specific kills become very difficult at the end as enemies become fewer and more difficult as noteriety rises.

Despite this, it is still a great addition to the Saints Row series.

Worth how much I paid? ✅
Would I pay for additional content? That's what this is.

Very well made puzzle game, and it's free! It is also one of the few in the category of 'Co-op Puzzle'.

Controls were ok, however some things such as rotating objects, flicking levers and spinning wheels required lots of effort.

Sadly this game has almost zero replay value despite most puzzles being randomised, though once a puzzle is figured out, it is very easy to complete again and again.

I would love to see a sequel, even if it was paid.

Worth how much I paid? ✅ 'Tis free
Would I pay for additional content? ✅Definitely

Re-writing my review as the devs have gone through and fixed a bunch of my main gripes.

Viscera cleanup detail is what it says on the tin; A cleaning simulator focusing mainly on small details and viscera. The game offers a large range of maps to clean, all of which will require a decent level of time commitment, ranging from an hour to up to four. Of course, when you start getting good at the game and start planning properly these times will drop. It can be a great "no-brainer" game, some might even call it soothing, but is equally, if not more fun with friends.

I would definitely recommend this one, and it's dlc add a worthwhile amount of content.
