Flashback 2
A cyberpunk action-adventure that leans hard on 90s platformer DNA, expect rotoscoped animation, puzzle-solving combat, and backtracking through sci-fi corridors that feel more methodical than frantic.
GamerScout Verdict
For retro action-adventure purists only; everyone else will find the pacing deliberate to the point of tedium.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Flashback 2
I went in expecting pure action, but Flashback 2 is really a deliberate puzzle-platformer wrapped in a Morphs-versus-humanity wrapper. You're working through interconnected environments solving environmental challenges and combat encounters that reward patience over reflexes. The rotoscoped animation gives it a distinctive look, though it demands you learn enemy patterns rather than button-mash. Backtracking is frequent and the pacing feels deliberately slow-burn. This is a game for players who miss the mechanical depth of 90s action-adventures, not for anyone chasing arcade thrills. It's niche, uncompromising, and occasionally frustrating when puzzles overcomplicate what should be straightforward progression. If you vibe with that era's sensibilities and don't mind a deliberate pace, there's something here. Everyone else should probably pass.
