What players are saying
Counted from the reviewers’ own thumbs up/down on the 146 English Steam reviews we collected, not by the AI. Valve’s all-language rating: Mixed (728 of 1,125 positive).
Many players find Biped 2 hilarious and fun in co-op, praising its chaotic teamwork. [1][2][3] Some reviewers criticize the sequel for clunky controls, repetitive puzzles, and bugs. [4][5][6] Several posters recommend the first game over this one, citing a lack of polish. [5][7][8]

After the 2 player co-op playthrough experience... For a sequel which was in development for years, this was very disappointing. The new mechanics were half baked at best and the controls were very clunky. Co-operative puzzle elements were dumbed-down and and the new "catch the different elementals" "puzzle" was used over and over and over again which felt lazy from design perspective and felt bad to play. The lack …

As far as the co-op goes, it’s shockingly worse than the first game. Pretty much every new mechanic suffers from a combination of: - clunky controls - confusing objectives - an unclear camera perspective (you can’t tell if a thing that you need to collect is farther away or higher up) - a lack of any actual cooperation or competition, many of the puzzles and challenges are solo-solvable Sometimes all of the above, …

This is still just as hilarious to play as the first one. It's so much fun with friends—the two of us couldn't stop laughing the whole time. Super fun game!

We get 4-player co-op now. A few friends together over the weekend and spend half the time just messing with each other. Good fun. Controls still have that clumsy little robot feel, but the glider and hookshot make moving around way smoother. The fusion stuff really needs coordination though, otherwise you'll just end up stuck. Not as punishing as the first game either, most levels you can get through in a couple …

The controller is very smooth to play with, mainly because it's more fun to play with friends. This generation also has more puzzle solving content, which is more diverse. I will try again with more people later

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Biped 2 took me by surprise with its insanely chaotic ragdoll mechanics and four player co-op. And it got me thinking, this "friendslop" genre is pretty fun when you don't have someone raining on your parade. My impressions:

neutral · AI labelView post →This game has surprisingly fun and engaging gameplay. Some of the situations and mechanics are absolutely hilarious, I honestly haven’t laughed like this in a long time. It’s a great game whether you’re playing alone or with friends, and it really knows how to create unforgettable funny moments. Definitely worth checking out!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What an adorable and entertaining game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →They tried so hard to add diverse mechanics and challenges that they forgot about actual fun. Since the dev asked for explanations, and Steam want allow comments longer that 1000 characters, I will edit the original review. I wanted to take more time to play the game a little bit more and give you a more expanded reply, but since we haven't played any more since then, I will provide my feedback based on the four levels my buddy and I have completed so far. 1.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game is glitchy, hard to handle 4 player perspective co-op, unreachable collectables, and so on. Cute game, first was fun, this one started ok but is just unpolished, unfinished.

neutral · AI labelView post →I can't believe I was excited for this game...after loving the first game I couldn't imagine this one flopping this hard but, wow, was I proven wrong. Pros: Visually great. No real bugs (although some weird stuff does happen with the physics, I write that off as part of the fun with these types of games) Cons: GOD SO MANY!!! First, this game should be renamed to "Elemental Wrangler" as a vast majority of the game is "Go run into this element to 'knock it out' and drag in to the cage."…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This was a disappointing sequel. Everything about it felt exactly like Biped with very few new mechanics introduced, of which the new mechanics felt clunky or unreliable. Even the main menu was nearly identical to Biped. I highly recommend playing the first game. Also the ending of the game was extremely baffling. Abrupt and unsatisfying. It would have been better to have not given an ending cutscene at all.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you are looking for a good co-op and/or puzzle-platforming game, avoid this. Stick to Biped 1, seriously. Unfortunately, Biped 2 is not a good successor to the first game. At first, it feels like they just copy-pasted a lot of the first game, since the music, sounds, menus and many assets are pretty much the same. While the ideas behind the various new mechanics seem creative and fun, many of them feel neither polished nor properly playtested. Some prime examples: - Ghosts: It takes way…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I loved the first Biped and couldn't wait for the sequel, but Biped 2 has been a total disaster. The best mechanics from the original have been either removed or scaled back, resulting in a dull, lifeless, and boring experience. Even after the major April 1st update, the game is still riddled with bugs and feels incredibly repetitive. The new mechanics are a step backward; while the first game required genuine coordination and cooperation, this one just feels random. It’s a total disappointment.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Biped 1 was really fun, skill based, and easily one of the best coop games Ive played. I was really looking forward to Biped 2, however I ran into a few issues that really made the experience horrible. 1. Bugs. There are so many bugs and glitches in this game that often it feels like no matter how skilled you are, completion of a level is dependent on luck not having a bug or glitch send you back to the start. For example: Theres an ice level, where quite often, you literally cannot hold on to…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Did you like Biped 1? This game is quite literally Biped 1, but with a 2 instead of a 1. The Biomes are all the same, the maps are probably identical. The tutorial is literally copied and pasted from Biped 1. The music is exactly the same. The UI is exactly the same. I couldve been convinced that I was playing Biped 1 still, if it didnt have a 2 in the name. Im still not actually sure this game isnt Biped 1 just with a 2 at the end. It might be. It is the exact same game. If you liked Biped…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Biped 1 was a good game, nothing special but enjoyable. Biped 2 is copied Biped 1 with some...let's say reworks done to it to make the previously well functioning mechanics clunky and broken as well as introducing more Bugs to functioning parts like: - Blue/Red Plattforms not changing color when you step - Grabbable stuff not grabbable when it should be - Physics non existent where Biped 1 had at least some parts that felt like they had some If the game is AI created then I totally understand…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Play the first game. This is honestly just a worse, reskinned version of that. The "puzzles" have good ideas, but are poorly implemented and either way too convoluted or have some detail which was overlooked. The walking/sliding around is fun and interesting, but every other form of movement (grappling, gliding, climbing) feel janky and unpredictable. My girlfriend and I really enjoyed the first game, and we'll finish this one, but it is decidedly a step backwards in quality. At least the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →19. Biped 2 There are many games with friends out there, but Biped 2 stands out as one of the most hilarious. Controlling biped robots with quirky controls a la Baby Steps, each level is a coordinated challenge that will have you laughing at each moment while trying to make it to the finish line.
positive · AI labelView post →Really enjoyed the first game and was excited for the second. However, there are a number of things that are incredibly frustrating with this new release. Firstly, the gameplay feels bland and extremely similar to the first game in many ways. The "new" mechanics are repeated so many times that they become very boring and none of them have really felt like a challenge. Playing COOP with a friend, we have experienced a number of glitches: - Clipping into the environment and each other, to the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →DLC flavored game. feels like a boring buggy version of the first one, I regret buying it A common problem I had when playing with a friend, was getting stuck when skating, A LOT. Also the rotating pipes and the seesaws felt more unresponsive if compared to the first game, in the first it was finely tuned, you could make tiny ajustments on speed by pivoting on one foot. In this one it was more all or nothing
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There has been a fresh wave of coop games in the last decade. Some with deep meaning and creative narrative. Other with wacky physics and a focus on funny failures. There is more, with silly horror and uncertain exploration, followed by hectic escapes. And another with the demand for coordinated execution of a precise tactic. And all of them are about chatting, socializing, and party-play, where the game is a justification for spending time with people. Biped 2 is different. Yes, it is the true…

neutral · AI labelView post →I played a lot of coop games with my friend. This game is the worse one we ever played. We definietly don't recommend this one. It is full of bugs. Every single level that they added "special things" after reliease is so ill-considered. Flying is buggy, u cant get all the coins since you are either too high or too far from other player. Some of the puzzles are so annoying just because they decided to add special tornados that push you around for no actual reason. Some puzzles don't load for one…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it's just like what other comments said, the game is buggy. A lot of times, in order to do or get things is only a matter of chance and not skills.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good coop action adventure. I played the first Biped and I really liked it. Do I recommend this second game? - Yes, especially if you can play coop with someone. You will have a lot of fun and have a good time.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nothing beats a great co-op session with friends!🤖✨ Our friends at VICE agree. Biped 2 by Owlcat Games is the perfect game to scratch that itch, even if you're a tiny robot. Play with up to 4 players and try the demo now!

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played Biped 2 with my nephew and he absolutely loved it. The whole game is built around teamwork, and it really feels like you are figuring things out together the entire time. Even simple movement turns into something funny and chaotic in a good way. Each player controls the robot’s legs, which leads to a lot of laughing when things go wrong. Puzzles are clever without being overwhelming, and the game does a nice job slowly introducing new ideas so kids do not feel lost. The levels are…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Biped 2 is a true gem among co-op games! The developers have managed to preserve the charm of the first installment while taking everything to an entirely new level. The game shines with warmth, humor, and a wonderful balance between simplicity and challenge.

neutral · AI labelView post →Is this sequel any good successor? No and heartbreaking no way. I mean, the first half of the game still feels like the first game, but later it appears to be more like "Biped v1.8-PreBeta-Release" or something like that, because while it has quite interesting new ideas, it also feels like the game has been made by a group from middle (or pre-middle) school who just got access to the source of the original game, and they decided to make something for their presentation due to few months. And…

We were then joined by RavenKowai and played Biped 2 for a short bit. We got through 1 level before the game started bugging on us. We finished things off with some Lethal Company
negative · AI labelView post →Not worth the 15 euros. It's one of those cheaply produced, buggy sequels which insult the very idea of the first game. Before even playing the game, you have to read and accept a huge corporate Terms of Service, which - although normal for games - is absolutely stupid for this game. "Hey look at this overpriced, unrefined slop, here are the terms of our corporate overlord." I have never felt so miserable playing a game before. And to think they weren't ashamed while publishing this...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I had been waiting for the full release since the demo, and I’m satisfied. It’s still just as fun and enjoyable to play in co-op with friends. Nice graphics, good music, and interesting levels.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The second part did not introduce any interesting mechanics to the gameplay (although the developers are trying to pass off hang gliding as such), but it still remains an excellent game with pleasant graphics for a couple of evenings. Why buy the second part if the first one is much cheaper or already in your library? Of course, to expand the boundaries of multiplayer gaming, including 4-player co-op and Friend's Pass.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The first one was really fun and I was looking forward to the second, but I was extremely disappointed!!! The game is full of bugs, the gameplay is the same as the first but they made sure to make it worse, there isn't even the possibility of remapping the controls and when playing co-op, the controller experience is horrible! Why isn't there a way to put movement on R1 and R2? It doesn't make sense! When I leave one analog stick still and move the other, it automatically activates running…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a fun game. Controlling a robot is incredibly engaging. Overall, this game can be enjoyable and does so beautifully.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A cute game, both visually and mechanically, perfect for co-op play. There are a lot of levels, perhaps even too many.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I purchased the game for myself and for my friend - nneat game with cute robots. If you like chained together - you should try this one
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is strongly recommended to play using a controller. Using a mouse will wear out the double-click button too quickly. I would only recommend using a mouse in certain specific areas, as it is easier to pass.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Friendship testing! The more players, the merrier—a total must-play for parties!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I finished the whole game in 2 player mode but I felt more joy playing Biped 1. I like some of the ideas in Biped 2, but the execution of the mechanics are horrendous. For some reason, half the levels were changed in a recent update too? After the most recent release we ran into a lot of weird camera glitches as well, with disappearing objects. It's crazy how much the game can change after 3 days
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The puzzles have to be some of the worst designed puzzles I have ever seen in any game ever. The 4-player multiplayer distance limiter in combo with some of the jank platforming is abysmal. The multiplayer consistently breaks and the pace of game is snails pace. People have fun playing this game. Some of my friends enjoyed this game. I cannot stand it
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →We really wanted to like the game, but compared to the first game this is a huge step backwards. Mechanics are wonky, certain parts are not even coop but "you do a thing, then I do the same thing afterwards", which really is not cool. Hitboxes are not good, example: in a lot of levels, when you glide along by pressing both sticks towards a direction you get stopped because there seems to be a small edge in the hitboxes, especially when the level has moving parts. Overall, unfortunately we…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What a load of ♥♥♥♥. CO-OP is broken. Very unstable, kept failing to connect and rubber banding If you aren't hosting, Could not see certain effects but the other play could. The game play is just awful as well, nothing really new from the first game except some kind of herding mini game that got boring very fast. Mostly the same stuff but worse and the depth perception is none existent. Don't waste your money.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very interesting and difficult game, you need to get used to management. I recommend playing on the joystick
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Big improvement from previous part, it is more fun to play and smooth.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →That's really interesting, and the price is very cheap
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very interesting, playing the biped 1 and then playing the biped 2 is not difficult at all, but playing with friends becomes very difficult.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The quality of the game is quite good, and the compatibility with Steam Deck is also excellent. Looking forward to the biped3!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I loved the first game but this one just can't compare. The level themes are all the same from the first game so aesthetically it just feels like a level pack, not a sequel. The puzzles are also overall just the same from the first game or just no fun, in two player mode a lot of puzzles could be solved by just one player doing all the work. I know the devs have done major reworks on part of the games and keep tweaking things but that just rubs me the wrong way, if the game still needs so much…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has it's good points but they're almost not worth mentioning. It puts so much in your way that feels fully unintentional. Like beams on either side of a barrier that you need to pass an ice block through placed perfectly on either side so that if you're unluck the ice block get's stuck and you soft lock. The entire game world has unnecessarily complex collision geometry that is constantly interrupting your movement. All the puzzles are shotgunned with different types across all the…
