Badland 2, the sequel to Apple's 2013 iPad Game of the Year, is out now on iOS.
Available for £3.99 / $4.99, this enchanting fantasy adventure casts you as a floaty sprite avoiding all manner of environmental hazards such as buzzsaws, flamethrowers, magma, oil and more.
Like its predecessor, Badland 2 is an on-rails physics-based platformer/endless runner (or rather floater, as you hover in mid-air). The difference is that the original game tasked players with only moving from left to right, whereas this sequel allows you to float in both directions. You'll generally only be moving in one horizontally-scrolling direction (usually right), but occasionally you're tasked with descending or ascending vertical chasms, so the two directional inputs are essential and offer a greater sense of agency through the game's scripted obstacle course.
