![]() Players trek through the calcified hallways of a demented brain dentist's delusions, a film noir bowling alley/city, and a Woodstock acid trip. Since the game is all about delving into character psyches, each mindscape tells a deeply personal story veiled in creative metaphors. While the story of "Psychonauts" 2 is leagues beyond what you find in most platformers, the main appeal is its levels. The narrative tackles plenty of mature subjects that might go in one young audience member's ear and out the other. The characters might come in a rainbow of skin tones with heads of every geometric shape imaginable, but don't let the aesthetic fool you. But more than that, "Psychonauts 2" tells a compelling and hilarious story. The game is a throwback to 3D platformers of old, complete with collectibles and an ever-improving host of psychic powers.
