Sludge Life 2 PC

Sludge Life 2 is a humorous first-person adventure game and a sequel to the graffiti simulator from 2020, which originally debuted on PC, later on receiving a Switch release. Just like its predecessor, it was developed by Adam "Doseone" Drucker and Terri Vellman - this time working alongside Kid Ciggy. The game was published by Devolver Digital.

Plot

Sludge Life 2 is set some time after the events of the first game. The player character is, once again, Ghost, a talented graffiti artist. His friend - Big Mud, a humanoid frog - has unexpectedly disappeared. Suspecting one of Slimetown's reigning corporations, Ghost heads out to find him.

Mechanics

The game makes use of the first-person perspective (FPP). Aside from its new storyline, Sludge Life 2 is more of the same - more tags to paint, more NPCs to meet (which there are to be three times as many compared to the first game), more tracks to listen to, etc. During our exploration of Slimetown we gradually uncover the truth behind Big Mud's disappearance.

The game also includes a range of optional activities, such as taking photos or playing basketball with Ghost's friends. The roster of gadgets used to traverse the city has been expanded with items such as Double Js (granting double jumps and a faster run speed) and the Portable Launcher (lets the player launch themselves high into the air).

Technical aspects

Just like the first Sludge Life, the sequel only supports singleplayers. The playable area, however, has been significantly expanded, with the game offering several more hours of content. Its cartoonish graphics and sense of humor make the experience much more enjoyable.
