Our take on A Fisherman's Tale 2
The body-as-puzzle design gives the game a distinctive central mechanic, but also narrows its puzzle vocabulary: players looking for varied conventional puzzle tools may find the approach repetitive.
What is A Fisherman's Tale 2?
A Fisherman's Tale 2 is a VR puzzle-adventure about uncovering Bob’s past through Nina’s childhood.
Players explore locations and solve puzzles by using their own bodies as part of the puzzles. Hands can be detached and controlled, or replaced with attachments found in the world. The game combines these body-based mechanics with a story and exploration of varied settings. Its central puzzle approach involves taking apart and reconfiguring the player character rather than relying only on conventional objects. This is a sequel to A Fisherman's Tale; the game was previously titled Another Fisherman's Tale, with the title changed but the content unchanged.
