Vaster than its predecessor, this sequel unfolds larger dungeons and more powerful demons to capture and grow. Mapping, optimising your party and ferreting it all out fills long hours of methodical exploration. That surplus of content, faithful to the formula, offers a longevity dungeon-crawler fans cultivate.
Complete: box, manual and disc/cart very clean. Lightly handled.

An underrated gem
This sequel loosens up the original's formula with a lively hub and more present companions, without sacrificing any of its tough exploration. Stuck as a niche title on a fading console, it flew under the radar. More accessible and better paced, it'll delight dungeon-crawler fans hunting for something welcoming yet deep.
Is Demon Gaze II still worth playing in 2026?
A sequel to the dungeon crawler from Experience, Demon Gaze II refines the first game's formula by plunging the hero into a city under a tyrant's yoke, where he captures demons and rallies a resistance between turn based labyrinth explorations. The capture system, the party management and a livelier hub enrich the adventure, carried by more present writing and a colourful art direction. The repetitive structure stays distinctive. For a fan of Japanese DRPGs or a fan of first person labyrinths, the title keeps a preserved tactical depth and charm.
