‘The Man in the Park 2: The Second Man in the Park’ is the sequel to The Man in the Park. The premise is quite similar to the first game. You travel through a lonely park in the middle of the night, but this time you can encounter 2 different people sitting on park benches. The player has to decide who he is going to trust and this time there are even 6 different endings.
So far this sounds like a noticeable improvement to the first game and in some ways it is. The Man in the Park 2 is not as criminally short as its predecessor and there is at least a little more gameplay to it. The gameplay is nothing interesting, but something is certainly better than nothing.
My big problem with the Man in the Park 2 is however how it doesn’t take itself serious. It tries to be a self-aware Horror comedy, but is neither funny enough for comedy nor does it manage to create a Horror atmosphere. So in a way it has the same problem as the first game, but for different reasons.
Result:
Longer, more gameplay options and yet The Man in the Park 2 doesn’t really improve. There might be more of it, but the gameplay is just boring and the story lackluster nonsense (like a bad Reddit fanfiction). The first game at least attempted to be scary.
3/10
