![]() ![]() If you are aiming to unlock and upgrade your equipment, completing the game’s puzzles will be necessary. Each cave is different from the others, requiring problem-solving skills to finish, but doing so will reward you with artifacts, cogs, and high-profit materials. While completing quests is important, exploring caves is equally so. It makes traveling a lot easier and less complicated. There are now more indicators for cave locations, completed caves, and tube locations plus, it’s more colorful. Moreover, the game’s map has also been improved since SteamWorld Dig. Retracing your steps can be a chore, but the game has set up tubes from the surface to various parts of the underground, which makes getting around much quicker. When exploring, you’ll be doing a lot of backtracking when doing quests and finding artifacts, cogs, and materials. Not only can you upgrade Dorothy’s weapons, you can also display enemy health bars, reduce your fall speed when flying, teleport back to the game’s town, and enhance dodging falling rocks. With the cogs, you have the ability to re-use them for other modifications to your gear. In SteamWorld Dig, once you use your orbs for your gear, you never get them back. While SteamWorld Dig uses orbs, SteamWorld Dig 2 has cogs. Rare items that are obtained by exploring the mines are typically hard to find, but they are worth the hassle. While not essential, it’s another opportunity to upgrade your equipment. By earning blueprints, you can unlock enhancements for your gear. By collecting them, you can exchange them for blueprints. One of the newest features in the game is collecting artifacts. That said, players will need to be careful since falling from an extreme height can kill your character. To regenerate your gauge, you’ll just need to land and wait. The gear does not require water to operate, but there is a limit for how long you can fly. The ability to fly is one of the best upgrades the game has to offer, making traveling across platforms a lot easier. Unlike SteamWorld Dig, the water source never runs out so you may return back to the original spot if needed. When it’s empty, simply place your character in water, and the gauge will automatically refill. Fortunately, you can upgrade it to hold more as you progress. Most of the gear requires the use of water, which is governed by a gauge. While some gear is simply used to help break apart tough walls, others are more unique such as flying and powering-up golems. Like its predecessor, Dorothy can upgrade herself with steam-powered gear. You can still turn in materials to earn money to upgrade your weapons and accessories, though. For example, instead of turning in materials to level up, Dorothy now does it by defeating enemies. SteamWorld Dig 2 has made many improvements both great and small that help enhance the gameplay. Dorothy and Fen must fend them off to stop the earthquakes, and some of these encounters will lead you to the enigmatic world of Vectron, a creepy and eerie place from which no robot has ever returned. Among the more interesting ones is the comical but serious cult of robots that are seeking the end of the world. ![]() From the robots that live peacefully on the surface to the humans that dwell deep in the mines, despising them, each character has a personality that will guide or go against Dorothy and her companion. Just like in SteamWorld Dig, the characters in this game are amusing and mysterious. Upon finding out that machines are causing the earthquakes, Dorothy believes they are related to Rusty and ventures into the mines to find them and Rusty. However, Rusty’s disappearance isn’t the only problem earthquakes have been happening quite frequently since he went missing. Think of Navi from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time but more comical and less annoying. Fen, however, doesn’t follow Dorothy around and stays inside her robot body until key moments arrive. Fen comes off as a sassy little sprite that likes destruction and always suggests to Dorothy that she hurt herself. In her search, she stumbles upon Fen, a remnant of the once high-tech world of Vectron. You play as Dorothy who is searching for Rusty, the protagonist from the first SteamWorld Dig. SteamWorld Dig 2 is a world filled with robots and steam technology. While mining is the same objective, this Metroid-styled game has received positive upgrades, making it not only a successful sequel but a must-own game for your gaming library. It’s been four years since the first SteamWorld Dig was initially released. ![]()
