Reception

The game received favorable reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings.[1] Next Generation called it "a very solid second effort that sets the title well on its way to becoming an established brand – if [the developers] can keep improving the game this much every sequel."[10] (Ironically, this is the last game in the series.)
