60 of 150 · most liked firstThe game had a huge potential, it started out beautifully, Shimoro shot the game, everyone said that it was "the best game based on the movie cube", the cases cost a lot of money, and they were bought often. What is the result? The game seems to have been updated, a couple of traps were added, a couple of everything. Update 1.0 was released, and... and... the game was scored. There have been no updates for ~ a year now. Online is zero, no new traps are added. In general, the game is dead.…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While this game is dead, it's still enjoyable with a few friends or even on your own. It's pretty similar to a horror movie called Cube; if you liked that movie, you'll like this game. With how cheap it is (especially on sale), I'd say it's worth buying for a few hours of fun. It also has jiggle physics.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is perfect for everyone who watched the movie "Cube" and said "I could do this". Equal parts absurd and exciting, this is a game that's best experienced with friends.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Half Dead 2 is, unfortunately, a fully dead game. The concept has great potential and can be fun playing with friends, but that's really it. The content is pretty limited, you'll see and learn everything there is to see and learn in less than two hours, playing it SP is pretty boring and online matchmaking is completely empty, so don't get this if you don't have others to play it with. Achievements can be done alone, pretty easily even, but quite grindy and boring.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really cool concept to have a battle royale pvp mode I wonder if they got inspiration from that one movie... I've never seen that in a video game before really cool guys keep up the good work.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The grind? Surprisingly fun. My achievement showcase? Absolutely ruined. I put the time in, learned the traps, accepted death as a lifestyle choice, and somehow unlocked achievements so rare they now sit in my profile like “why does nobody else have these?” Please. I’m begging you. More people need to play this game so my rarest achievements stop looking like developer-only flexes. Solo play is solid — tense, methodical, and quietly punishing in that “one mistake and you’re paste” kind of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Private co-op standpoint: Awfully buggy, no retry/easy go next Other than that best part about it is watching my friend repeatedly accidentally run into traps If you have trouble with not everyone being in the lobby or different hosts for different people, those that are joining should switch gamemode back to co-op or other and then attempt to rejoin said friend Else -Mouse may bug out and be too slow to use for some people -You can launch other peoples games n such -You just won't get a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Better than the oldest and first part! New traps and rooms. More different cosmetics to collect. And again very fun to play! Always enjoying the time spending on this game. 8/10 Raufasertapete. Schön. Get Goo Goo Alu
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Even if you are a fan of The Cube, this will get boring really fast.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this is a really nice fun little game to play with ur friends
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →IS NICE TO PLAY WITH FRIEDN :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If it’s 2 Half Dead’s that makes a Whole Dead
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I would not recommend this game purely based on the fact that the devs made half dead 3 which is basically just an updated version of this one. The only reason I can see to get this is the carnage game mode, which is basically just a battle royale, except it is completely dead.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i mean im also half alive so yea good game but no boobies
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got all three of these games to play with my husband. The first one was the best but the other two just feel like the same game with extra options, super disappointing. It's a very basic game, and it feels more like a minigame than anything. You go from room to room to try and find the one with the exit. Some rooms are booby trapped, and you only know if they are if you walk in or throw your shoe. Some traps can be jumped over or avoided but some lock you in the room and kill you. It gets…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's good ... More content would be nice
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's alright but not worth 5 dollars (an owner of Half dead and Half Dead 2)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played this game and refunded it within the first 2 hours. The first time you play the game it is exciting and thrilling but as you play more and more of the game you realize how repetitive the game really is. If you ever consider buying this game I suggest that you do not waste your money.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I still lose more shoes in real life than in this somehow.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game feels like it was made to be played by YouTubers. If you're not a YouTuber, I don't see the point. It's fine, it's a decent gameplay loop; it's just missing something without comical banter from parasocial comfort voices.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Half Dead 2: A Game That Changed Me—Mind, Body, and Carnal Desires I thought Half Dead 2 was just going to be another chaotic, physics-based death maze where I’d lob shoes at spike traps and get electrocuted in a futuristic hellhole. I was wrong. This game didn’t just kill me repeatedly—it awakened something primal inside me. It started with the thrill of dodging flamethrowers and narrowly avoiding being diced into futuristic sushi. The tension, the anticipation, the raw, visceral…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game, but my stinky winky friend returned it cause he loves men......smh
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this is just the movie Cube in game form and it's amazing.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →*This review is based on solo play only* Quite an enjoyable game set in a dystopian future very reminiscent of the Cube films; Cube 2/Hypercube in terms of room settings, but the first movie, Cube, in terms of traps and atmosphere. You wake up in a square room, technological and surreal, and you must move from room to room looking for an exit to the next level, and eventually, escape. Rooms vary from safe to deadly, and a variety of dangers in-between. You toss your shoe into a room as the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awsome game to play.Seen the movie the Cube.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is a fun game especially when trying to escape with friends and has a decent amount more content than the original
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →EXTRMELY repetitive.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →With the first one I already felt half dead playing it so naturally I convinced a friend to buy the second one with me but who could have expected he felt half dead 2
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Half Dead 2 takes everything that made the first game compelling and refines it with broader environments, improved mechanics, and more strategic depth. Arena layouts are larger and more varied, encouraging exploration rather than rote memorization. While traps can still kill instantly, the level design often gives just enough visual context that learning feels fair — not arbitrary. This sequel leans into environmental storytelling and risk-reward decision-making in ways that keep runs…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun! *IF* you can get friends to play with you. I love what this game once was, but as it is now it is basically dead in the water. Though I love the game... I cannot recommend it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun at LAN parties!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game's multiplayer is dead, but its not that bad for what it is. If you are a fan of the "Cube" movie franchise, you will enjoy this at least on the once or twice with a friend. the game isn't exactly a triple A title its menus could use polish and things feel a touch jank here and there but it has plenty of potential to be great.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Reminds me of the old movie "The Cube". I think this game was heavily inspired by that, and it's actually pretty fun. You go from room to room, avoiding traps and certain death. You can play it solo but I recommend getting friends to play with you as it makes the experience better.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Get it if it's free. There's no one on the servers to play with so you better find a few friends.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →AWWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWA GOOD GEAM
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I didn't play this game for too long , but when I did , it was honestly a nice experience especially with friends. If you enjoyed this game you should watch the movie it was inspired after too , "The Cube". The game itself is fun and really cheap for what it offers , it's really good.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →at least my top half is still alive... 😔
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun for a few matches but get's boring quick. Just like with alcohol, consume with moderation
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What is this ????
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →better than the first one 7,5/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Play with friends, but not for too long, or it'll get boring and stale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →man 1: Cube? man 2: Cube. end scene
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →really enjoyable game to play with friends
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →he jiggle physics is great

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don't waste your money.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →is good game for a while but basicly to put it out there its crab game useing half life refrences
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →worse game i ever spent money on it was on sale for 3 dollars and it still was not worth the price. Make the game free then it is still a bad and boring game you just go in rooms and that's all. :) !Don't Buy!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is cute for like, 10 minutes, which is longer than 9 out of 10 attempts will last.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Deadly rooms await Each choice tempts another trap Hope unlocks the way
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Still, Half Dead.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →thanks, i hate it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It was a great little concept and I have good memories of playing this a good amount of times just trying to get through the levels and different traps. Would have been nice if this got polished, but unfortunately, seems it will stay a buggy mess.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is so dumb, but so entertaining. A simple maze escape concept that is super fun to play with friends. Dumb ways to die in a maze.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun with friends
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The most challenging of the series when you crank the difficulty. The main mode is still the bread and butter and the others are ok. Recommend this with a friend over solo.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i survived cube.
