Is Stick 'Em Up 2: Paper Adventures worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Fans of side-scrolling shooters who want platforming mixed with varied set pieces
- Groups with extra controllers or a shared local network for multiplayer sessions
- Players seeking cooperative or competitive party play rather than solo-only gameplay
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players looking for a game beyond side-scrolling run-and-gun platforming may find its core format narrow
- Players who want online multiplayer instead of controller-based or local-network sessions will hit a format mismatch
- Players seeking a standalone single-player adventure may not want its emphasis on campaign cooperation and versus modes
Our take on Stick 'Em Up 2: Paper Adventures
The bounce point arrives when a group expects internet-based multiplayer: the available setup uses extra controllers or a local network. Players without either arrangement may be unable to use the cooperative and competitive modes with friends.
What is Stick 'Em Up 2: Paper Adventures?
Fight through paper and card-themed stages as stick-figure characters in a side-scrolling run-and-gun platform game.
Scenarios include firing rockets from a helicopter over city rooftops, jumping between pirate ships with a sword, and driving buggies on the moon. The game supports one to four players using extra controllers or a local network connection. Players can cooperate in the campaign or compete in VS and Team VS modes. Friends without the game can join a network session through the Starter Edition, which is available for computers, smartphones, and tablets. The listing also mentions Hero Team, a planned spiritual sequel with online 4v4 play and loadout customization.
