Zeno Clash 2 is the sequel to the 2009 indie first person brawler, Zeno Clash. It was released in 2013 on Steam, Xbox Live Arcade, and PlayStation Network, and features more open levels, RPG Elements and Co-Op Multiplayer.The story starts a month after the final showdown with Father-Mother. Golem has revealed Father-Mother's terrible secret, that Father-Mother is a male creature who kidnaps babies and replaces them with animals, and has assumed control of Father-Mother's family. Father-Mother himself has been locked away in Halstedom's first civil institution, a jail, but Ghat and Rimat suspect something is amiss, and plan to break Father-Mother out.Unlike the first game, which focused on the trials and tribulations of the Zenos, this game expands on the mysterious Golems who guard the four corners of the Flat World that is Zenozoik and their plans for the Zenos within. As it turns out, the Golems have strife and emotional conflict of their own, and the Zenos were unlucky enough to get caught in the middle of it.Also unlike the first game, it is far more open. While not a true Wide-Open Sandbox, players have far more freedom to do what they want and even have an over-world that can be explored for secrets and collectibles in between story segments.On 7th of July 2021. a sequel titled Clash: Artifacts of Chaos was announced with a new protagonist named Pseudo taking the helm. It was released on March 9th, 2023.

Darker and Edgier: The first game, despite the somewhat brutal atmosphere, ended on a Everybody Lives note, with only the already posthumous Metamoq being an exception. In the sequel, many characters die and one specifically Adrance is left for dead by Ghat and Rimat which is notable even if they did not directly kill him. In addition, it also deals with deeper themes of mortality, forgiveness, laws, justice, and familial abuse.

Hero Antagonist: Golem only wants to bring civilization to Zenozoik, as well as to protect the civilized world from the violent, lawless people of Zenozoik. However, this brings him into conflict with Ghat and Rimat, who are violently opposed to the concept of "laws".

Spiteful Suicide: Threatened by Golem. When it is clear Golem is dying, he tells Ghat and Rimat that if they step foot onto the mainland he will kill himself and take not only them but all of Halstedom with him… ostensibly to “fulfill his mission� but in context it seems it’s simply out of spite that they were able to best him, as at this point they are trying to save him by going to the mainland.

Mad Scientist: Done very subtly with the golems. Each of them (except maybe the golem of the west) appears to be obsessed/intrigued by experimenting on the inhabitants of Zenozoik. Kax-teh with law/governance, Xotl-teh with psychology/behavior and Nahuatl-teh with biology/genetics. Samoro-teh meanwhile is a mystery though it is mentioned that without any preoccupation, the golems would eventually shrivel into dust.

Failed State: Later in the game, multiple tablets can be read, one detailing how when the ancestors of the modern Zenozoik population were exiled, they tried to build some semblance of a civilization, the greatest and most evident being the city of Halstedom, however their society eventually degenerated for some unknown reason into the lawless wasteland seen in the game.

Boring, but Practical: The Chain. It's not flashy, but it does reasonably good damage, has better reach than other melee weapons, and its wide sweeps can get large groups of enemies to stagger back. Borders on being a Game-Breaker if you have the stamina to spam it.

comment
Wretched Hive: Halstedom is back, and somehow even worse than it was in the previous game when it was in a state of semi-anarchy. Without The Family keeping a semblance of order, and the Enforcers not up to the task as their replacement, the situation in the massive sprawling city has deteriorated immensely to the point many are considering or are already in the process of settling elsewhere, something largely unthought of in the previous game.

After being mortally wounded by Ghat, he threatens to finish himself off - which would result in the subsequent deaths of Ghat, Rimat, Father-Mother and anyone else "linked" to Kax-Teh. Which is almost everyone in Hastledom given their reactions upon returning there. This forces Ghat and Rimat to search for replacement organs in order to save him.

Creating Life Is Bad

comment
Creating Life Is Bad: Nahuatl-teh's creation of new chimeras is seen as a heinous crime by Kax-teh and by implication - the human civilization on the rest of Earth, warranting the former's execution by the latter. Given how chaotic and savage many inhabitants of Zenozoik are, it is obvious why nobody sane wants more and potentially worse chimeras.

Alien Non-Interference Clause: While he was not strictly forbidden from doing so, Golem was never supposed to go into Zenozoik. Instead his sole task was to guard the Northern barrier and prevent the people of Zenozoik from crossing it in order to protect the civilized world from the lawless Zenozoik inhabitants. However, he enters Zenozoik with Ghat and Deadra, hoping to bring civilization to it. He eventually realizes this was a foolish and hopeless endeavor and yet also comes to believe that the Zenos are deserving of life, even if its only a life in a lawless wasteland.

 Zeno Clash 2 (Video Game) / int_98c2a8f2
comment
Humans Are Cthulhu: The humans outside Zenozoik are impossibly more advanced than the illiterate Zenos. Golem mentions they can build his replacement in a matter of days. Combine that with their unpredictable, distant behavior towards the mess that Ghat and the Golems stir up during the main plot, and future humanity comes off as being both deeply alien and unfathomably strong. Adding to the mystery is we never actually see any in person, and even if Golem is modeled after the humans of his time, that was a very, very long time ago.

Most of Ghat and Rimat's family now have a more significant part in this game's story, and their relationships are a little more fleshed out. In the first game, the most interaction Ghat had with his family was beating their faces in.

Earth All Along: This is hinted a few times. When you activate Golem's throne and choose to exit the area from it, you are teleported to seemingly another planet/moon, look up and you will see a familiar blue marble. Aditionally, when reading the slates detailing the history of Cenozoik/Zenozoik, the description of the geographical location matches South America, the four natural barriers are: West- the greatest ocean (Pacific), North- endless deserts (Atacama desert), East- impassable mountains (the Andes), South- land of eternal cold (Antarctica). Word of God says that yes, it's Chile. This matches up with the geography of Zenozoik and also happens to be where ACE Team, the developers, are based. It's implied that the events of Abyss Odyssey are canon history for Zenozoik, as it's implied that the warlock never stopped dreaming, terraforming the land and conjuring up the ancestors of Zenozoik's people, and one tribe has taken a hint, digging into the earth to find the Warlock and whatever treasures he dreamed up.

Demoted to Extra: Deadra, Ghat's partner/love interest from the first game, is absent for most of the sequel. She left Ghat after his sulking about the Golem's laws became unbearable, hoping the Golem could bring prosperity to Zenozoik. She eventually becomes disillusioned with the Golem's laws, though, and leaves for the wilderness to start her own town. You briefly meet her about halfway through the game, and you can recruit her as part of an optional sidequest near the end.

Mission Control: In the second half of the game, Golem gains a psychic link with you, grants you the ability to read, and sends you out to find his replacement organs. During this time he acts as this role.

Mind Screw: More than the first game, which was mostly just an understandable (though ambiguous) story told in a surreal landscape. This one has even more ambiguity, weird monsters, and surreal scenes.

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: At the end, Ghat and Golem work together to defeat Xotl-Teh, in a move the other found so unlikely that it actually coming to pass is solely responsible for his entire plan unraveling.

Ghat, This is Your Father: Xotl-Teh brings along someone who may or may not be Ghat and Rimat's real father (in addition to Xetse's) during one of his "tests". They beat the crap out of him anyway.

Taking You with Me
 Zeno Clash 2 (Video Game) / int_caf89e54
comment
Taking You with Me: Kax-Teh does this twice: After being mortally wounded by Ghat, he threatens to finish himself off - which would result in the subsequent deaths of Ghat, Rimat, Father-Mother and anyone else "linked" to Kax-Teh. Which is almost everyone in Hastledom given their reactions upon returning there. This forces Ghat and Rimat to search for replacement organs in order to save him. The second time comes at the end of the game, when he pins Xotl-Teh to the wall and allows the High City bell to crush them both.

 Zeno Clash 2 (Video Game) / int_d7b34c31
comment
Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Kax-Teh, keeping with the conventions of the first game, is referred to only as "The Golem" or "Golem" by various Zenos. Even after Ghat and Rimat find out that he does, in fact, have a name.

Small, Secluded World: Zenozoik. Invoked in Zeno Clash 2, when we find out that it is in fact a tiny part of the actual world. The civilized people who inhabit the rest of the world use advanced technology and live under the rule of law. They believe the inhabitants of Zenozoik are not capable of life under such a system, so they keep them locked in Zenozoik and don't let anyone in or out.

comment
Bait-and-Switch Boss: The entire game revolves around the conflict between Ghat and Rimat, who are fighting to preserve Zenozoik's totally unrestrained way of life, and Golem, who attempts to impose law and order on the land and its people. However, at the very end both Golem and Ghat team up to defeat Xotl-Teh, the South Golem who has secretly spent the entire game dicking with both of them.

comment
Nerf: The weapon system from the first game was redesigned from the ground up. Weapons are now more powerful overall, but they can not be reloaded, can not be put away in close combat, break if you use their mêlée attacks too much, and can not be picked up again to be thrown at enemies if they break or run out of ammo. Overall, their usefulness has been severely reduced.

comment
Chain Pain: One of the permanent weapons Ghat can find is a chain. Its special attack is a good way to hit multiple opponents and stagger them, but does not deal much damage, and costs considerable amounts of stamina. For certain fights it is invaluable, however, as the AI is easily exploitable.

Undying Loyalty
 Zeno Clash 2 (Video Game) / int_f16da697
comment
Undying Loyalty: Rimat has no serious opposition to the Golem's law and order and thinks Ghat's anarcho-libertarian worldview and love of fighting is actually kind of stupid. However, she is undyingly loyal to Father-Mother, and opposes the Golem because he wants to lock Father-Mother up for his crimes. Kax-teh also has strong feelings of loyalty and obligation towards the people who established the laws regarding the golems and their duties towards guarding the Zenozoik chimera reserve.
