❤ Gameplay Overview

The open world structure allows players to freely explore the Australian Outback, accessing different mission areas and completing objectives at their own pace. This open-ended approach encourages exploration, with many hidden collectibles and secrets to uncover across the sprawling environment.

❤ Boomerang Combat

Combat revolves around TY's trusty boomerang, which players can upgrade with various elemental effects like fire, ice, and rope. Locking onto enemies and timing boomerang throws feels responsive and satisfying, with the different boomerang types adding strategic depth to battles.

❤ Vehicle Gameplay

In addition to on-foot platforming, players can operate several vehicles, including a car called the "Fourbie" for fast traversal of the open world, and mechs called "Bunyips" that provide unique combat abilities. While some reviewers find the vehicle controls a bit clunky, others feel they work well in the context of the game.

❤ Mission Structure

Rather than accessing levels through a centralized hub like the first game, the open-ended mission structure allows players to choose which objectives to pursue by driving to different areas of the Outback. This freedom is appreciated by reviewers, though the open structure can occasionally feel a bit confusing.

❤ Platforming and Collectibles

Responsive and satisfying platforming challenges players to navigate the environment, while the collection of items like ThunderEggs and Opals (used to purchase upgrades) provides an additional layer of gameplay. Reviewers generally praise these platforming and collectible elements as strong additions to the overall experience.
