123 Slaughter Me Street 2

I can't believe I'm actually writing a review on this and taking it seriously but this game pissed me off more than it should. I bought this game because I remembered it from back in the day. I had just turned 11 when this game came out a few weeks prior. There were many youtubers I saw play it, and I eventually played it myself but refunded because I thought it was too difficult. So, Christmas/New Years sale comes around and I see it in my recommended games tab and thought ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ wow I haven't thought of this in years!!! And so I regrettably ended up buying it and played through the entire thing. Trust me when I say this is actually one of the worst games I've ever played in my entire life. I would like to try the other entries in this series (particularly 1999, as it seems the most appealing to me) so I'm not entirely put off. But this entry is genuinely so bad I can't stress enough. It's funny because it does so little in a short amount of time, a lot of the reasons I can boldly say such a thing is because of poor optimization, lazy design, horrible AI, and a generally stupid concept. I played the demo of SMS 1999 and was actually impressed by how it played compared to this…

Ah yes, Hide and Seek with demonic Muppets. Out of the original games back in the day, I would say this is my favorite one out of the two. (Technically three with the original SMS Retro) While this is literally hide and seek as I previously stated, this game keeps you on your toes with the objectives. Especially in the lights out mode! Sure, like the first Slaughter Me Street, this game and the models are dated, but that never stopped me from liking and enjoying my time with it. And once again as I stated with SMS1, I am highly looking forward to this series when it makes another comeback after the release of SMS 1999 last year.

For 5 bucks it isn't terrible but it has a lot weighing the game down. The first game wasn't the best it had a lot of issues but one thing I liked about it was that it had a unique gameplay loop. This one doesn't really. Hiding seek is kinda unique but it's basically run around a house with spooky monsters and just sit in an area for a little bit. It can be somewhat fun trying to scout out the next safe zone but it's not much. The monster designs also aren't bad but I do think they are a little more forgettable. Each level usually has a different amount of monsters in it besides the last couple which have all 3. I think the game does introduce each monster well enough before shoving all of them into a level. Speaking of levels while for the most part they are the same every once in awhile the lighting changes and there are some small details like the older models appearing. One level I wanna bring up is level 8 which from what I know makes your flashlight piss poor and makes the house really damn dark. The level was annoying but it is beatable, but lights out mode is AWFUL. Basically imagine level 8 but take away the eye icon that indicates an enemy has seen you and take away safe …

123 Slaughter Me Street 2 is a tense and deliberately unsettling indie survival horror experience that leans heavily into atmosphere, stealth, and psychological pressure rather than spectacle or combat. Developed by Nate Sanders and John Kolbek and published by Impulse Game Studios, LLC., the game serves as a prequel that expands on the minimalist concept of the original title, trading its singular, linear chase for a more methodical and anxiety-driven structure. From the opening moments, it establishes a bleak tone that emphasizes vulnerability, confusion, and the constant feeling of being hunted. The game begins with the player awakening in a decrepit, blood-smeared house with little context and even fewer resources. Armed with nothing more than a flashlight, you are immediately made aware that survival depends not on fighting back, but on learning how to hide, observe, and move with caution. The environment feels claustrophobic and oppressive, with narrow hallways, dark rooms, and unsettling ambient sounds constantly reinforcing the idea that danger is close, even when unseen. This sense of helplessness is intentional, pushing the player into a mindset where every decision feel…

Awesome game, I really like the gameplay loop and the monsters in this game, along with all of the 2d artwork in the cutscenes and tokens. Not a fan of what the Lights Out update did to the fur on Stalker but that's like one of my only complaints. The Lights Out mode is really cool and this game is always fun to play around the time of Halloween. A bit jank and a bunch of glitches like the first game but it'll always hold a special place in my heart, I remember being really scared of it on release in fact!
