Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is the last installment on the "Hotline Miami" franchise and is also the conclusion to the story from the first game. In this review I'll not reveal any spoiler. The main story revolves mainly on the acts after the events of the first game.On this game you can controls multiple characters,everyone with their one story or motivation,the first one is an actor of a "snob film",so every mission with that character is part of a movie based on the mass murder from the first game.Other group of characters are the "Fans",who are fanatics of the first game protagonist,they make the same kind of massacres to random gangs,using masks with the same style as the ones from the las installment. Other important characters are a detective and a writer,the detective is trying to solve the case from HLM1,but in the way he makes the same actions as the murderer.The writer,who is also a friend of the detective,is writing a book about the case,getting information all the way into the game. Other minor characters are: a guy from a national group who is against the Russian mafia,the Russian mafia leader,a Russian mafia member,a character from the first game who is also a "mask assassin" and a group of soldiers in Hawaii(1985). The gameplay on this game is practically the same from the first one,the campaign also consist on the same kind of levels with the same enemies. the difference between this game a the first one are mainly on the story,on this campaign you have a bunch of characters with different stories,not like the first one where you could play with only 2 on the whole game.Other thing is that the story is more clear and less cryptic than the first one,where you didn't had any clue about what was going on until 3/4 of the campaign and even there everything was blurry and ambiguous.Nonetheless,this story is equally involving and psychedelic,and even more brutal. This game is a perfect sequel to an extremely well done game,keeping the same "spirit" of the first one. If you are interested to read my thoughts on HLM!,please visit the IMDb page of the game. Thanks for reading! 10/10
