Q.U.B.E. 2

Qube 2 is a very decent puzzle game, in the same genre as "Portal 2" and "Magrunner: Dark Pulse".
It has atmosphere and a story that make the simple map design feel alien and bearable.
If Portal was about robots and Magrunner was about aliens, then Qube is about robot aliens :D
I haven't played the first Qube game but its boring white tileset seemed too boring and reminded me of bathrooms.
Qube 2 on the other hand reminded me of The Backrooms.
My only gripes could be:
Wish there was a workshop for community made levels like in Portal...
Also wish there was a button for running. Normal walking is so 2005, come on.
Heard the paid DLC are good but they are paid DLC..
Overall, a good enough game.
Puzzles were challenging but not for someone like me who is coming fresh off of custom Portal 2 levels.

QUBE 2 is an outstanding puzzle game, featuring some truly ingenious challenges, particularly towards the end when you unlock a certain upgrade. The puzzles are well-crafted and engaging, making it a must-play for fans of the genre.
However, the game does have a couple of notable drawbacks:
Limited Advanced Mechanics: The game lacks the depth of advanced mechanics that could have made it even more compelling. This might leave some players feeling slightly disappointed, especially considering that the first game offered more complex and varied mechanics.
Mediocre Plot: While the story is serviceable, it doesn’t quite stand out. This isn't a major issue, as crafting a consistently intriguing and thrilling narrative is one of the most challenging aspects of game development.
As a huge fan of puzzle games, I wholeheartedly recommend both QUBE and QUBE 2. Despite its flaws, QUBE 2 delivers a rewarding and satisfying experience

Pretty good puzzle game and sequel in general. Graphics are phenomenal, mechanics are pretty straightforward, puzzles are fair and quite easy if you've played a lot in the genre. Overall a decent game, would recommend on sale.

Nice puzzles, great visuals, and, in contrast to the original Q.U.B.E., a story.

It's a decent game, but man, they should stop copying the esthetics of Portal and find their own calling.
Talos Principle managed to did it with worse puzzle mechanics, hence their success
The game itself is surprisingly short, managed to get to both ending in 5h
Nitpicks:
* Slow walking speed: It is really awkward for the puzzle platformer genre since you need to explore the levels throughly, not just taking in the visuals/feels like in a walking simulator
* Head bobbing: It can cause nausea even without VR, as normally your eyes are focused on a fixed point even if your head moves
* Physics based puzzles were in the uncanny valley of not what you expect from real physics while still sometimes hindering the puzzle with randomness
* Every time there is the same reactor with rooms to power it up, really?

8/10
Good game. Very much in the way of Portal. Not too difficult, and I only needed to consult a guide twice, both times was due to forgetting a game mechanic.

So I beat this in less than 7 hours but man it was a nice change of pace. Lots of puzzle games are either pretentious, too easy, or unfun. This game's puzzles were not too hard, but I still felt great solving them. A fun brooding story that was odd, but not too wordy, and just enough to keep me going. I wish more puzzle games were like this.
