Additionally, the game features some seriously good-looking water physics, making it look even more gorgeous than it already was.īesides the visuals, sound design is also a big plus for Oceanhorn 2. The graphics look impressive here, with soft shadows and global illumination looking just as pretty as they do in most console games. Chockfull of attention to detail, this beautiful world is a true testament to the advances of mobile gaming.

The game takes place in a world called Gaia, and this land is one of the game’s many redeeming factors. Even though exploration can feel a bit shallow sometimes, the world of Oceanhorn 2 still manages to be interesting enough to immerse yourself in its characters and lore. Thankfully, Oceanhorn 2 manages to keep being its own thing thanks to the game’s unique setting that combines technology with classic fantasy tropes. From the art style to the not-so-great combat, one can’t help but feel like the developers envisioned this game as a “Breath of the Wild lite.” While the first game seemed like a love letter to the earliest Zelda games, Oceanhorn 2 is more than a bit inspired by the popularity of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. That said, it’s almost impossible to talk about Oceanhorn without mentioning its clear nods to the Zelda series. However, Oceanhorn 2 is an evolution of the formula, now featuring an explorable, more interactive world and a traditional third-person point of view. Its prequel, the original Oceanhorn, was a top-down adventure game, that while charming, still had the usual limitations that can be expected in mobile gaming.



Oceanhorn 2 continues this trend with its epic scale and solid gameplay. In recent years, we’ve seen how mobile games become nearly indistinguishable from triple-A console titles.
