Ittle Dew 2 (and later Ittle Dew 2+ for the Nintendo Switch) is a puzzle and action adventure game. It is the sequel to Ittle Dew with expanded concepts, mechanics and freedom of movement. It is available on PC, PS4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch. The game was developed by Ludosity and initially published by Nicalis inc.
Plot[]
Ittle and Tippsie are on their raft wandering the sea. The two look fatigued with Tippsie nibbling on Ittle's leg before rolling over to her side and being immediately flopped on by Ittle.
The two then suddenly hit land, the impact knocking the two over and revealing that they have been wandering in a puddle completely surrounded by land. The raft then immediately bursts as it usually does.
The two are then immediately introduced to Passel, the island's caretaker. He tells the two to leave promptly and not to adventure on the island only for Tippsie to steal a magical map from him and finding out that the island has several dungeons with pieces of a raft.
With a final stern warning Passel announces his poof before the two decide to adventure the island and acquire all the pieces of the raft. Several secrets await them on the island with its quirky cast of workers, dungeons and secrets buried behind journals and dungeons that may not have been a part of the original adventure. It's up to Ittle and Tippsie to find the answers themselves!
Gameplay[]
Ittle Dew 2 takes over several elements from its predecessor and improves upon them. The game is now in a 3D artstyle, and Ittle has much more freedom in diagonal movement. Many of the block pushing mechanics from the previous game make a return, but with a few new changes.
The new Ice Ring weapon spawns a unique ice block that can be cut diagonally and pushed in new angles. The Dynamite weapon breaks metal blocks and can be used to activate crystals from afar. The Force Wand shoots a projectile that shoves an enemy or object in the opposite direction and can be used to push regular blocks at different angles. Ittle starts out with a Stick which can can be upgraded to a Fire Sword and Mace.
Items[]
Ittle can collect four weapons in the game, as well as upgrades for the stick, and tools and items which can be of aid getting through the game.
