Biped 2 is an adventure game for PC and consoles. It is a sequel to the first Biped, and it still stars Aku and Sila, the same two bipedal robots in the original game. Together, they embark on a journey filled with challenging puzzles to solve and obstacles to overcome.

Biped 2 shines in co-op mode and heavily emphasizes collaboration and working together as a team. You can play it between two or four players, or you can even dive into it solo if you choose to do so. The theme of the story is about friendship, cooperation, and teamwork.

Collaborate and work together

In Biped 2, Aku and Sila are once again recalled for duty when a strange signal from a faraway planet is calling out for help. The two brave robots then set out on a grand adventure across the galaxy to prove themselves again. The journey encourages teamwork, and it is definitely more fun playing with a friend or three other people to get the most out of the experience.

If you plan to play with friends, only one of you needs a copy of the full game; the others can just download the Friend’s Pass, and they can join for free. Working with friends allows you to maximize the pair mechanics, which lets you unite with your partner and take on the role of either “arms” or “legs” to get past some puzzles.

There are also new movement types introduced that weren’t present in the first game, such as gliding and using a grappling hook. However, they are frequently used and become too repetitive after a while. The camera also pans out awkwardly at times, and zooms in at moments where you least expect it, causing a bit of dizziness and nausea for those with motion sickness.

Great for playing with friends

Overall, Biped 2 is a great choice if you like cooperative, puzzle-adventure games with cute graphics and colorful visuals. The emphasis on teamwork and collaboration does make it a social game with friends, since you have to communicate and work together to complete puzzles. The design of the game really focuses on that due to the constant use of the pair mechanics.
