The Sinking City 2 Review | A Great Game Despite its Lost Identity

Описание: The Sinking City 2 is great. It's an incredible achievement to have made this game during the invasion of Ukraine.

It's clearly a better video game than the original even though it lost something unique in its pivot to survival horror.

Let's talk about it.
