As a Metroidvania, Beyond the Ice Palace 2 does not necessarily stand out visually, but it does impress with its modern mechanics, extensive moveset, and authentic soundtrack. Unfortunately, the already dark experience is unnecessarily overshadowed by the erratic difficulty level and, crucially, platforming that does not always feel fluid. However, for those unafraid of a tough challenge in a Castlevania-like game world, there is certainly fun to be had here.
