“This mess killed the whole point of the first game. The good: amazing music as always, combat's better than the first game. The bad: On the contrary to the first game, this one's filled with a completely forgettable…”
“Music was mostly good. Gameplay was mostly good. I cannot bring myself to care about the story. The levelling up and repeat combats are annoying.”
“Everhood 2 is by no means a bad sequel, a lot of people say the gameplay improves but the story heavily falls short. The way I see the Everhood's is Everhood 1 is the curse of immortality and Everhood 2 is a different…”

“All is Vanity. This game is such a slap in the face in so many ways, and I adore it for that. If you want to see a review of the gameplay, music, story or whatever, just look over to the reviews around this one. The…”
“I absolutely recommend this game if you've played the first Everhood, or played a rhythm game similar enough to this one, though this one may actually be a bit more challenging at times, depending also on difficulty.…”
“Fun combat with a unique, chaotic storyline. Lots to do and, really, endless fun. Going through a period of fascination with psychedelics, this game really hits all of my interests.”

“i didnt find it fun or interesting and just super boring its no secret the first game is 3x better then this game theres no "main" character, fighting in a rhythm game ruins the WHOLE GAME, no main character = bad…”

“Gonna be honest, this game didn't click with me I loved the first game and was hoping to like this one too but it just feels like a downgrade in every way except for the combat system. the story didnt motivate me to…”
“A wonderfully bizarre musical game where you use the beat and rhythm of songs to fight. The music is great with visuals to match. The story however, leaves much to be desired. Thankfully the gameplay makes up for it and…”

“I prefer the experience and story of everhood 1, but the battles are so fun in this game and there's so many of them, so I give it a recommend.”

“I really don't understand the hate for this game. Everhood 1 wrapped itself up in a neat, tight package that any direct sequel would've trampled over. Everhood 2 is more of a spiritual successor, heavily inspired by the themes and visuals of its predecessor. If you find the…”
— a player, Steam review · 12 hrs played“Everhood 2 is a devine comedy. Okay now that I got the flashy hook I should actually explain why I think this game is the best you could want from a sequel. The original Everhood is a game that can't really be followed up, any mimicking of the same message would be an antithesis…”
— a player, Steam review · 16 hrs played“I dragged my feet on writing this and decided now, for some reason, almost a year later, that I'll write this. I bought the first one on a whim and beat it entirely in one sitting. It is one of my favorite games of all time, and I have recommended it to so many people. I listen…”
