I’ve never played the originalSludge Life, so I went into the demo knowing it’s got graffiti.

The grainy, lo-fi style of the game wedged the disconnect between me andSludge Life 2even wider.

And then I played it again, and it somehow just clicked.

Sneaking around to tag walls in less-visited places forces you to explore each corner of the environment.

If you need inspiration on what to do, the demo offers a short to-do list.

The greatest part of the demo, for me, is Gato Mago.

A minigame you could install on your in-game laptop, you play as a wizard cat in a dungeon-crawler.

I have no idea if this actually exists in the demo, but hey.

I’m begging you, if you’ve found it yo tell me where it is.

I need more Mago Gato.

I’m in love with the anarchist the demo is bringing out in me.
