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.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
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.

love it!
Decent game, not quite perfected as the RE games but still good. Combat is a little jank. I'm excited to see what they do next for I'm sure they've learned a lot from this. My critique of the game really boils down to a couple things. Defense/Horde sections were not fun. Enemies in the game can get pretty beefy and take a lot of resources to deal with. While these sections make sure you don't have to worry about that, it still becomes annoying to do them. Sometimes I wondered if the game wanted to be action horror or survival horror. Story wise, sometimes the dialogue felt like it was written by two different people sometimes. Its not terrible or anything, just sometimes feels off and sometimes feels right. This could just be me so take it with a grain of salt. I don't know if anyone cares and I don't know if the devs intended for us to reach any analytical conclusion from the game but I enjoyed the idea that the city/destruction is an allegory for the war in Ukraine. When you boot up the game, they give a wholesome message to us about how the war has affected them and they are proud of the game. I won't spoil anything but there is a part in the game where you stumble upon some photos that are from the war. I couldn't stop thinking about the connection between Ukraine and the the city being decimated and evacuated. Maybe that's just me being overly academic but it made the game feel more real to me.
9/10 A FANTASTIC game and a huge improvement from the first game, if you like Resident Evil you will like this game. They really did make it feel like a proper survival horror game, unlike the first one. Limited supplies, spooky monsters that feel killable, dodgeable, and terriying because you know you wont be able to take them all on with your limited supplies, and a great story on top, without the need for multiple pointless endings like most the cthulhu games have.
Spooky
Práce s inventářem je strašna.Musel jsem si stáhnout mod abych se stím netrapil.Jinak poměrně zábavná hra ve stylu Resident Evilu jen poměrně krátká herní doba okolo 9 hodin.
The Sinking City 2 is a very good survival horror game similar to RE. The exploration, items, puzzles, and the environment are very well designed and on par with RE. The only thing that falls a bit short is the combat. It is almost there, but needs some extra polish. Because of this I recommend playing the game on normal or hard, but not on the hardest.
good game survival like resident evil good action with little horror nice experience
