Set in the Roaring '20s, The Sinking City 2 is a survival horror steeped in Lovecraftian dread. Defy an eldritch deity and explore the drowned alleys of Arkham, stalked by the dead, as you weigh one life against an entire city.

About
The Sinking City 2 is a third-person survival horror set in 1920s Arkham. Deliberate, tense, and resource-lean: pressure builds as you push deeper, relief comes in brief refuge, and fear is something you manage. Mind your inventory, take on unnerving puzzles, and double back via unlocked shortcuts for supplies and upgrades.
A Roaring ’20s port city buckling under a supernatural flood. Tide-stained avenues and battered Art Deco. Speakeasies gone dark. Districts feel lived-in and water-worn, with routes by foot and skiff, shortcuts behind collapsed seawalls, and secrets tucked in boarded parlors. You’ll navigate a hospital where science hides its face, a fish market where the merchandise bites back, and descend deep below the city to where eldritch horrors stir.
A ritual gone wrong trapped her soul in the Dreamlands, and now malevolent forces have stolen her body. To rescue the woman you love, you must walk a dangerous path through catastrophe to the source of the flood — her presence always felt, but rarely seen.
The Slither animate the dead. Deep Ones surge from dark water. Shadows bend space and test nerves. Some fights must be met head-on; others demand a retreat to rearm, retune your build, and return better prepared. Or take on an optional investigation and come back with an upgraded gun.
Exploration is the key to survival. Read ritual residues, sift through grisly clues, decode journals that shouldn’t exist, and pry at masks that won’t come off. Optional cases never gate progress — but they unlock safer routes, hard supplies, and upgrades that change how you endure the next encounter.
The Sinking City 2 draws on Frogwares’ detective roots to deliver survival horror that runs deep and hits hard. Shaped by studio obsession and community feedback, it’s a faithful Lovecraft experience: myths made manifest, and the inconceivable fear that results.

Le jeu est extrêmement bon . Les graphismes, l'histoire, le gameplay sont excellent. Juste dommage pour la vf intégral qui n'est pas présente.
Si eres fan de Lovecraft y te gustan los survival horror este juego te va a encantar, si vienes del primero y vas buscando lo mismo tienes que saber que este cambia bastante respecto al primero, deja de ser un mapa abierto que puedes recorrerlo a tu gusto y pasa a ser un juego mas pasillero, también se acabó el modo investigación del anterior juego, este es mas sencillo y menos libre. Aun así es un muy buen juego.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 4: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

+ mega klimat + fabuła + zagadki + odczuwalne braki w zasobach jak to w survival horror + grafika +- gameplay dowozi - jedyny zarzut jaki mam to czasem za dużo wrogów napiera i robi się lekki chaos ale do ogarnięcia
I've never played any Resident Evil, and I guess it is the good part. Because as a new Player in such a genre I received everything: survival, detective, Chthulhu mythos and great atmosphere. The first game was good for its time, but this is a breath of fresh air for the Chthulhu fans. I really feel like the game is challenging me all the time, yet giving me just enough resources to survive and continue the journey. I don't want to leave the level without cleaning all the POI, and it says a lot because of the everlasting enemies all around. Considering the game was made during the war I feel like the quality is just over the roof. I fancy the Sherlock series, but this one is giving back more than I could have asked for. And the subtle hints of Ukrainian culture really bring a tear to my eyes. I wish the dev Team all the best, I wish them Victory, peaceful skies above and more such projects, which prove the Ukrainian gamedev is rising high and proud. Фрогвери назавжди в моєму серці ще за вул. Степана Бандери в Оукмонті. Дякую вам за згадку ветеранів в кабінеті протезування, дякую, що просуваєте нашу культуру, і дякую, що ви такі є. Ми переможемо, бо інакше не може бути. Слава Україні!
Level design is great, good RE style combat, stomping enemies like in Dead Space never gets old, no frustrating puzzles so far, looks great and is really well polished. I enjoyed the original but this sequel is the go to for survival horror fans. Also, I'm pretty sure HP Lovecraft makes a brief appearance early on.
С пивом пойдёт
Nach knapp 7 Stunden wider deinstalliert. sehr fades Game. Nichts was ich schon in so vielen anderen Spielen gesehen hätte. Und nein -dieses Game hat GAR NIX mit einem Resi -evil zu tun-Gar nix. 50Euro eigentlich für die Tonne. Wen man wie ich schon 25 Jahre Games zockt wird es immer schwerer Noch wirklich NEUE gute Games zu finden die mich reizen. Wen ich es mir das so angucke ist SC 2 einer der Games die ich am schnellsten wider deinstalliert habe.
Just a good Lovecraftian game. More linear then the first one, but also more focused.
Challenging at times. Great Atmosphere, Story, Graphics and Riddles so far.
다 필요없고, 후반부 붉은 우상 퍼즐 푸는 힌트 메세지 수정에 대해서는 매우 긴급한 패치를 하는 게 이 가격을 주고 산 구매자들에 대한 예의고 도리라고 본다.
