SLUDGE LIFE 2 is the grimiest first-person vandalism sim since the first SLUDGE LIFE—but, like, twice as dense. Explore a huger, weirder, gnarlier open world loaded with secrets, weirdos, jokes, and, of course, plenty of spots to tag.

What players say
Absolutely loved this game! So much loved put into a game! So many nods to other games I deeply love as well! Just overall a great time if you enjoyed the first one!
it is most definitely not worth full price, glad I got it on sale. I completed everything and beat the gatomog game. If you got it for free or for sale for like 1-6 dollars then its worth to play and its really fun otherwise anymore money than that is not worth it lol. Idk if they are farming money with this game with that unreal price tag or what.
Loved it from start to end in one sitting, especially from such a lovable franchise as Sludge Life is.
