In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

SteamWorld Dig 2 avoids the traps of modern “woke” identity beats and political lectures, focusing instead on gameplay and a light story. Inoffensive and refreshingly devoid of forced ideology.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

SteamWorld Dig 2 focuses on straightforward gameplay and only lightly touches on the identity or background of its robotic protagonist. There’s minimal emphasis on ideology or identity over the actual progression and story. The main character happens to be female, but it's presented as simply part of the setting, not as a lecture on representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The game doesn’t go out of its way to comment on or subvert real-world culture, gender roles, or traditions. Its robotic setting sidesteps modern human cultural issues entirely. There’s no mockery or undermining of religion, family, masculinity, or morality.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no evidence of ideological preaching or a forced narrative consensus here. The focus remains squarely on solving puzzles and exploring underground, not on lecturing players or mocking dissenting worldviews.
