Visit 2: Dark Tower is a sequel to Ted's puzzle platformer which was released two months before, where players must solve block puzzles in order to progress from one screen to the next. Use the F1 function key to review the controls, and press the S or down arrow key while standing over a save point to change colors. Tap the left or right cursor key twice to push a block.

The shift key can be used to switch buddies at any time. Press the space or enter key to view the world map, while full screen mode can be enabled from the options menu. The entire adventure should take roughly two hours to complete. (download instructions)

Uuhh... The graphics just scream Knyt to my ears. The gameplay is too slowpaced and simple and the puzzles aren't that imagenary... just pushing some blocks from one place to another.

I thought the same thing about the graphics. When I saw the screen cap I was like "Yeah! A new Knytt game!"

Some of the puzzles are pretty good. It's just the first few are really easy.

I don't like the way the background and foreground are all made up of similar squares. Sometimes it's really hard to tell what you can and cannot stand on.

When you get to a room with a big statue (after a blue switch in the previous room), you have to turn on the music ('M'), else the game crashes. You can turn it off again when you've moved on.
