About Strashna 2

Strashna 2 is a first-person adventure game set in a large, ever-shifting mansion. Developed by Renderville Games, it launched November 18, 2025, exclusively on PC. The game tasks you with navigating a house that physically rearranges itself, hiding clues in its walls, furniture, and hidden rooms. Solve environmental puzzles to uncover the mansion's dark past. The focus is on exploration and deduction, with a minimalist approach to combat or action. It’s a slow-burn experience that leans into eerie atmosphere and nonlinear storytelling.

Gameplay

You move through the mansion using standard FPS controls, interacting with objects to collect notes, symbols, and audio logs. The environment resets randomly each session, forcing you to adapt to new layouts. Puzzles often involve aligning symbols, manipulating machinery, or finding keys in reconfigured spaces. A radial inventory lets you toggle between items like a flashlight or journal. Progress hinges on pattern recognition, figuring out how rooms shift to access blocked areas. The camera often tilts unnaturally, adding disorientation. Sessions typically last 1-2 hours, with frequent pauses to document discoveries.

What Players Think

PlayPile users rate Strashna 2 4.3/5, based on 14,250 reviews. Average playtime is 8.2 hours, with 68% completing the main story. Community moods are split: 32% curious, 24% frustrated, 19% impressed, and 14% bored. Critics praise the "creepy, evolving architecture" (Polygon) but call the puzzles "repetitive" (IGN). Achievement completion sits at 72% overall, with 89% earning the "Found All Symbols" badge. 45% of players note the game's "slow pacing tests patience."

PlayPile's Take

Strashna 2 works best for players who enjoy methodical exploration over action. Priced at $29.99, it offers 45 achievements, including a 100-hour platinum. Fans of environmental storytelling and spatial puzzles may find it rewarding. Others might chafe at the lack of direction or mechanical variety. The shifting design adds replay value but can feel arbitrary. Worth trying if you’re into niche horror, but skip if you prefer structured gameplay.
