Make no mistake, though, as the handholding ends early in this game. You’re introduced to simple obstacles to become familiar with the controls and a few robots beep and boop at you to transmit essential story elements. You begin by taking control of Dorothy, a miner robot in search of Rusty, the apparent protagonist of the original SteamWorld Dig. I’m pleased to say I jumped right into Dig 2, was instantly hooked, and everything about the story flowed sensibly (well, as sensibly as a robot mining platformer can flow). This does a few things for us: if it’s a good, standalone game, it wouldn’t be necessary to go back and play the original (which, by the way, is not available on the Nintendo Switch) however, if it’s disjointed and requires that background experience, it would become quickly apparent. I felt I could provide a critical analysis completely separated from previously formulated expectations and opinions.
Everything you need to know is right there in the title, and it’s catchy, to boot! You control a Steam-powered robot, exploring the World by Digging… and because every great game deserves a sequel, this is installment number 2 (3 if you include SteamWorld Heist)! This is our SteamWorld Dig 2 review for Nintendo Switch.Īdmittedly, I hadn’t played the original SteamWorld Dig, but I was just as excited to write this review for that same reason.
