Game play: 10/10
Improvements galore make this installment of Kurohyo the best yet in terms of game play. The same awesome, core game play that is found in the first game, returns with additions and amendments aplenty. To begin, the travelling of Kamurocho is roughly the same as in the first Kurohyo, however there is a new city in the form of Sotenbori (those who have played Yakuza 2 will be familiar) which is traversed as well, which is a welcome addition (as well, instead of looking for cats, like one would do in Kamurocho, one looks for another item, not sure what it is, in Sotenbori)
Replay ability: 8/10
Replay is top notch for Kurohyo 2, as the game is a bit longer with, of course, a lot more to do. I found eighty cats, completed 67% of the game and unlocked roughly two-thirds of the fighting styles, albeit I only maxed out seven of them. All of this in a comfortable 26 hours of game play; not as much as the first Kurohyo but still very good for a video game in this day and age. The added mini-games and part-time jobs really add to the length of the game as well, especially if you are serious about accumulating money, as the part-time jobs are now much bigger. As mentioned too, the addition of an entirely new town adds great length to the game, as there is more to see and do, albeit not a great deal more.
