Bendy and the Dark Revival

The game is actually really good! I really liked it. Completed it a few times now, and it honestly gives you a challenge :) I hope you guys enjoy the game too!

Also, Meatley, you're a G.O.A.T.! :) Have a good day! ^^

This game is one of Bendy games ever made and is worth buying at full price But there are some things i don't like about the game.The Ink demon's mechanic is annoying and a can a pain to deal with when hiding spots aren't around or your in the middle of a fight.Second you only see the ink demon about six times(not including being killed by him) in the entire game.The rest of time is of him talking.But i do like the fact the ink demon never says the word demon and calls himself the ink dem.The hardest and my least favorite part of the whole game the is the keepers segment towards the end of the game.Everything else about the game is great.

имба игра дошел до конца с 13-30 фпс, за то понравилось особенно с русским языком.... 10 чернил из 10

I would not go as far as to say its better the the original but I really want to
1:Great storyline way better than the first! (in this aspect)
2: new mechanics that make the game feel fresh and more polished than the first one
3: way longer than the fist BATIM and I came back to play it through again.
overall 6/5 stars (only get this game if its on sale though full price is just too much)

i play 2 hours in then my freaking game just crashes and i cant reload my saves

Great game i really had a great time playing it i recommend it if you like poppy playtime you will like this too

put down what you are doing or if you are debating getting this game, just do it, you won't regret it

Somehow this is better than Bendy and the ink machine very good game and story. I would highly recommend it.

Fantastic sequel. I love it in almost every way, except one. Anyone who tries this, download the Smoothness mod on Nexus. It makes the game 100% more playable.

everything you loved about the original but better. the stories definitely the highlight and the amount of times i freaked out over seeing a character I recognized isn't countable. the best of mascot horror.

Fun and unusual games. Love it.

THIS IS A FUGING A W GAME EVER it so good dude u nearly have hearts attacks bc some ghost type thing jump scares u ever single 1hr or 30 min

this game is very adventurous and amazing! please do play this

the first game was an og this one is ? sadly hasnt played it the only reson i have fou ours is cuz i accedently left me pc on

a nice improvement to the origanal. better visauls, nice music and not a fetch quest. awesome!

it's buggy and doesn't allow for smooth game play. A waste considering the game it self is not that bad

A definite step-up from the first game in terms of overall quality, though there are some bad design choices that drag the game down. The game has basically no real horror value, so don't expect a haunting atmosphere and a scare around every corner. This is definitely something this game does worse than its predecessor. Speaking of which, the core gameplay has been majorly changed and not really for the better. BatDR has more of a focus on combat, which was one of the weaker aspects of the first game. However, this iteration of the combat is barely different so the game ends up having a weak core. It also keeps some of the more unfortunate collectathon aspects from the first game which doesn't help. The story is pretty interesting, but the "Lore" has become dumbed down in comparison to the previous game, which isn't a huge thing to a lot of people, but it really feels like they took the easiest to write path. Last gripe, some of the solutions in the game get obscured if you're in hard mode, and you would have to already know the solution in advance since they don't all make sense. I've seen several YouTubers get stuck at those same points and this is a really strange design choice.

For what it does well, the graphics are a lot better than the first game, and the voice acting and animation are a lot more professional. It also leans a lot more into the survival horror aspects of the game which were things it did well in the first game. There's no aspect it does especially poorly in.

TL;DR It has higher highs and lower lows than the first game. Some questionable design choices in the gameplay. If you liked the first game you'll probably like this one. It's a bit different, but keeps some of the first game in its soul.

Great game, don't get me wrong, awesome sequel. One thing I think is a bit odd is Mister Ink Demon himself, so far most of my deaths have been to Bendy just existing out of nowhere, normally when I just arrive in a new area where I've not learned the locations of the hiding spots yet. Inevitably I would end up getting killed just before or right as I find a hiding spot. Probably a skill issue, but I swear that Ink Demon is spawn camping me sometimes. Great Game Though!

the original was better in every way they destroyed the lore and henry for me

I love the graphics of this game!! It also has a whole munch of stories connecting to each other and If theres another game thats coming up, i cant wait to play it

Completed the game in 12 hours. This is one of the best horror games I've ever played!

This game is hundreds of times better than Bendy and the Ink Machine. I got an amazing experience from this game and I recommend it to everyone. This game is worth every cent fr
An interesting upgrades system, diverse gameplay, locations and enemies, and amazing overall game quality. This game was made with love
Imo this game is something like a mix of Bendy, Alien Isolation and a little bit of Outlast
My final rate - 9/10

And btw I really enjoyed the moment where Bendy said it's inkin time and started inkin everywhere

The sequel of BATIM

Gameplay: 10/10
Graphics: 10/10
Story: 10/10
Voice acting: 10/10
Map: 10/10

I really recommend you to play this game!

The game is super awesome! Just at the end, I defeated Shipahoy dudley but I can't return to the game after I defeat him. I'm stuck in his lair and I can't escape. Please help me

It's a pretty good game. I really enjoyed myself with this one. If you've played the first one "The Ink Machine" and had fun with that game I'm sure you'll enjoy this game just as much if not more.

However, I did have to install a mod from Nexus Mods. Mainly because the game was extremely laggy and jittery in a few parts of the game like some beginning areas and some Mid parts of the game. So this mod helps with stability, and adds a few neat things to the game. It's called; "Smooth Bendy 2 Dark Revival" It adds the much needed Field of View sliders, and even a few shaders to the game. If you don't like how heavy the blue colors are in the game. And miss the color scheme from the first game. Making the game look like this.

It's highly recommended you install the mod. It's just one file and it's a drag and drop install. I hope the game gets these updates by default. Other then that the game is pretty fun, a little short but a good play non-the-less.

Now I'm off to beat this game on hard mode. And the Ink Machine again!

ONE OF THE BEST GAMES IN HISTORY. Good quality and great story line with a lot of lore to uncover, just a true masterpiece.

Honestly a really good and awesome sequel! Loved and enjoyed every second of it, but if im being completely honest, its not somethiing id replay, its best if played once, to truly enjoy it in my opinion, but thats just me, besides that, GOATED sequel!

Short but fun game. I enjoyed the story and the game play.

i keep getting kicked from the game once i reach the "heavenly toys" area. i would love a refund or for this bug to be fixed

I'm not having any great first impressions in the slightest, the gameplay is a huge step down from the original, it tries to focus more on combat while they knew deadass BATIM was not known for it's combat, so the entire experience feels really janky. I'm seriously not having fun, I was stuck on Artist's Rest for an entire goddamn hour because I had no direction on where to go or what to do, and the Crawler fight was nearly impossible as from my gang rape of lost ones, I was dying after every single phase, by the way, can I just say, can we please choose another type of spider enemy other than just a fucking headcrab reskin? I'm tired of seeing a fucking headcrab reskin in every game I play.

A map mechanic along side a inventory system for food etc would've been a good addition to the game


But even not having all that. This is a decent game

I think it's a legitimate downgrade from the first one. Substandard boss design, story writing, enemies, stealth, collectibles/achievements. The first one did it better.

A huge improvement from the previous game. It no longer feels like a glorified walking simulator as there is actual game play involved this time, comparable to the one in BioShock with both a loud and a stealth option available for the player at any time. There are also some parts where stealth is just mandatory, but they never feel too overwhelming.

My biggest complaint with the game is its length and how rushed it may feel at times, but this is perfectly justifiable by the fact that its an indie game made by a decently small developing team that has like 2 games under their belt.

Overall, great atmosphere and an okay-ish game play loop. Maybe get it on sale if you are not the biggest Bendy fan.

I've said this in my BATIM review, but I've never been a fan of mascot horror games because I just don't like the vibe of most of them.

However, the art style of this series caught my attention, I gave these games a shot, and I love them. While BATIM was a solid first entry, Bendy and the Dark Revival feels like it refines some game mechanics and really starts to figure out what it wants to be. It has a bit of a Bioshock feel to it as far as the story and vibes go so if you liked the Bioshock series, you might like this one.

My ONLY complaint of the second game is that I liked how the Bendy mechanic worked better in the first game. In the first game, it felt like he was actually chasing you and like he was a real part of the environment; sometimes you'd turn down a hallway and suddenly see him standing there, "infecting" the world around him and it really got your heart racing. His appearances were also more unpredictable. You'd have to actually run away from him as he chases you, hopefully finding a hiding spot and waiting it out inside as you watch in horror as he slowly pass by.

They don't do that in the second game. Instead, the mechanic changed to intervals where the screen suddenly darkens a bit and a message pops up telling you he's coming and you have to hide. You have a set amount of seconds to hide, wait it out, and then it's over. That's it. You don't really see him in the environment much. He just felt so much more interactive and part of the world in the first one. It also feels much more predictable than what it was in the first game. Sure the first game also had a "if you hear a certain sound, hide" mechanic but even then, you can see him interacting with the world in a way that really added to the horror. In the second, it's just kind of a random pop up and after a while, it just becomes a mild annoyance rather than something that scared me. I found myself often going "oh, it's been a few minutes, let me wait for the bendy pop up next to this hiding spot before I continue my task". It got to the point where I got really good at predicting when he appeared and just waited for about 20 seconds next to a hiding spot while browsing on my phone. I no longer felt that fear and anxiety like the first game made me feel.

Again, this is my ONLY real complaint. Still a great game despite that; the game was fun and I'm really REALLY looking forward to the third game! I love the style, world building, and characters. Definitely want to see where the story goes.

The graphics are really good, and it is a fun game to play, you should try playing it. I think you would like it.

I can run it on my lower quality laptop with minimal lag when I adjust the graphics! I'm so excited to play through the whole game because even in a lower resolution and with low graphics, it's BEAUTIFUL

good quality and graphics love the models hope to see more soon!

Absolute great sequel to the first game, it showed a lot of new and old faces. The story building, twists and turns as well as the overall story of this game series so far is top notch. Can't wait for the next one!

The game has brought me more questions than answers, and thats just lovely

but I truly love it because of the artsyle

Love the gameplay and the spooky atmosphere of the studio. Gives me the scares and I love it.

Honestly just not as good as the first game. Some parts can be frustrating and some parts just have enemy spam for no good reason. The teleport ability doesn't even work properly half of the time.

The game is lacking in options such as being able to change the controls. Seriously, nobody uses C for crouch, what is wrong with you? Luckily I was able to set up a bind in iCue but some people might not have that option. The story is okay, nothing spectacular. Voice acting is pretty decent although some dialogue is a bit cringey.

Visually its alright and it runs well, didn't really come across bugs or glitches aside from at one point the ink demon spawned right as I was going into a cutscene and it killed me after the cutscene was over which was very annoying because the game doesn't give enough checkpoints so I had to do a portion over again, the game doesn't even have a quicksave so you have to manually open the menu every time you want to save and that's stupid.

The gameplay is okay I guess, you have like one weapon but you can't really block or dodge so most of the enemies will end up hitting you unless you kite them around corners to avoid their attacks. There's also a lot of stealth segments so its like why give me a weapon if I can't use it? pointless. There's also an enemy that's entire purpose is to just randomly pop up out of nowhere and jumpscare you, its more annoying than anything.

The game is mostly linear however at certain points it gives you the ability to go back to a couple of previous areas and do some sort of side quest which just seems a little hollow and unnecessary like go all the way with side exploration or not at all in my opinion.

Overall its an alright game, if you care about the story and stuff in the first game you might like it but from a gameplay standpoint its just not that great in my opinion. Definitely only get on sale. 6/10

Absolutely had fun playing this game. Although The Projectionist was missing, we got Searchers, which I liked as much as got scared of, especially when trying to find the second part of the music box, but totally loved the map design, more corridors, ladders. I loved the Lord Amok cult and wished there was more to it and some cutscene of Audrey being crowned and something more when she sat on the throne, because nothing happened. Also, when she got out, some of other Lost Ones who you could now recognize as Lord Amok's people, could have not attacked Audrey and when regular searchers attacked her, they'd help her out. But still it was a lot of treasure Audrey found in Amok's little kingdom. I also wished there was more in the rooms at Wilson's Mansion and perhaps a short movie of Wilson and Betty at the dinner table, that he talked about, where he could have told the rest of the story, instead of him and Betty right away telling her Audrey everything at the arrive. When asking her to rest, we got the book in her bedroom, I read it all and wished we could click on the pillow to sleep and have this story appear, as a short game, that turned into horror and evil Betty appeared, slightly like Alice and she made Audrey wake up, to find Berry already there waking her up for coffee or something or to give a message. Because Audrey didn't get to rest otherwise. I loved Alice's puzzle in the North section of the house and the boss fight. I did miss having the Axe in this game. There were very few Gent Cards to be found and we had to rather exchange our tools, which we needed for Gent Pipe Upgrade, especially the Tool Pouch that is rarely found and is much needed in the upgrade. I loved the Abilities and the idea of upgrading Audrey and the Pipe and the hidden passages through walls. Enjoyed listening to the Lost Ones talking. All these backstories in the audio logs and Lost Ones talking made me want to see more of the Gent story from those days.
Definitely would love a game that allowed us to play Susie and Henry in the real life studios and then warping to the Ink world as the Ink Characters, like in Shadow Man, you play Live Side and Dead Side and in Soul Reaver you have both realms you can shift between. Seeing some inactive Linker Portals, I wished we would find a hidden place to obtain some device to activate the Linker portals to reach other areas in the game and inside some houses in the city near Gent office. Always wished to see what was going on when you knocked on the door to annoy someone inside.

A very great sequel to the original BATIM, showcasing everything from that game but taking it 10 steps further with great visuals, storytelling and mechanics. 9.5/10

also bendy now has a way more epic and cool sick design :))

the visuals are epic, the story line is great, the Characters are great and if you want to play this, i recommend Bendy and the ink machine first because it helps learn the story properly

SO MUCH better than the first game. The pacing is way better, the game actually looks great (first game had cool art direction but still looked super lack luster), and the story is better (not good, better). There's actual gameplay this time, and the metroidvania-esque map works WAY better than I thought it would. I was very pleasantly surprised!
But it's not worth the $30 price tag. Wait for a sale. Solid 7.5/10.

Oh my god i dont even know where to begin with this game. The story is really good, as well as the voice work done for each character being excellent. I definitely recommend this game to anyone who hasnt played it yet, and is a fan of Bendy and the Ink Machine!

This game is absolutely amazing. Everything from the art style to the voice acting is top tier. It is a perfect sequel to the original; a game I have replayed countless times. Even the music is absolutely breathtaking. Definitely worth the money.

The Machine Must Endure

Great game, totally worth the purchase. Great history, graphics, and gameplay

i like how more open-world it is and how a bit more expressive things are, as well as well. everything in general. currently halfway done with the game and still loving it, though of course it is a bit hard trying to stay alive in the game but eh, trial and error.

A improvement over the original in terms of game play. The graphics are really stylish but sometimes it's hard to find notice things sense the same color blends together. The narrative is better and animations are very smooth.
