Crypto returns to take on the world of free love, the Cold
War and other 60's era clichés, causing destruction around
the globe with an upgraded arsenal of alien weaponry and enhanced
mental abilities - battling a variety of enemies from secret
agents and giant creatures, to Soviet Forces and ninja warriors...
The
sequel to the widely acclaimed hit Destroy
All Humans! enters
the swinging sixties with all new game features, expanded
open-world gameplay and a co-op multiplayer mode. Set a decade
after the first game, Crypto is dead but his clone is alive
and well and itching to carry on where his predecessor left
off.
For
the most part this sequel is very similar to the first game.
However, there are quite a few tweaks that make playing the
game a whole different experience. For starters a few new
weapons have been introduced - including a disc locator. This
handy weapon fires a disc at your enemy which picks up anything
in it's path and throws it across the room, while the disc
itself bounces off walls looking for another victim.
Other
areas that have been tweaked include your ability to blend
in with the humans. Instead of creating a holo-human, as in
the previous game, you can now bodysnatch a human and walk
around pretending to be them. You only have a limited time
inside their body, and should anyone see you snatching a body
(or spot you as an alien), you'll have to perform a mass hallucination
(called "Free Love") which makes any witnesses dance
like crazy and forget they ever saw you. While inside a human
skin, you can make other humans follow you (so that, when
you have used up the time in the body you are in, you can
make a quick body swap without having to scour the surrounding
area for another victim) or you can make a cop or army officer
"protect" you. This means that should anyone realise
who you are and start attacking you, the official who is protecting
you will open fire.
You
can also jump in your space craft at any time and grab a few
humans to experiment on in your gene lab these help to give
your character ability upgrades.
This
time around your adventure is not confined to the USA. If
you complete enough missions you'll soon be saucering off
to Japan, the UK and Russia in a bid to cause more mayhem.
And should you get tired of causing trouble alone, you can
invite a friend to help you cause destruction - thanks to
the game's co-op mode.
There
are still a few niggles I had with this game - the most annoying
being the length of some of the missions. Get killed and you
have to start from scratch again - usually by going to find
your alien leader and taking your orders again.
If
you were a fan of the original game then you'll totally fall
in love with this upgraded and more intense sequel.
