MKAU Gaming recently got a sneak peek at the highly anticipated Two Point Museum, the latest addition to the beloved Two Point series. Created by the talented minds at Two Point Studios and published by SEGA Europe, this exciting game is set to hit the shelves on March 4, 2025, and will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
In Two Point Museum, you play as a museum curator, working to build and manage a museum in the quirky world of Two Point County. The gameplay involves sending your staff on thrilling expeditions to various Points of Interest (POIs) around the county. These expeditions allow you to discover an array of fascinating artifacts, such as prehistoric plants, ancient fossils, interesting aquatic creatures, and ancient relics.
Each POI offers unique samples and special events that are influenced by the skills of your staff members. Highly skilled staff can handle risks like illness and injury, while also unlocking lucky events that boost the expedition’s success.
Creating exhibits in the Two Point Museum is an art. Each exhibit has specific environmental needs. For example, frozen exhibits need chilly environments, while certain fossils thrive in arid conditions. Thoughtful design and placement are crucial for creating a harmonious and engaging museum space, as the buzz you generate with each exhibit directly impacts the satisfaction and enjoyment of your guests.
The game’s financial backbone relies on guest donations and sales from the gift shop. Making sure your guests are happy significantly increases the chances of them donating generously and buying souvenirs, which in turn helps you fund bigger and better expeditions. You can also tweak prices and admission fees to maximize your profits.
Managing your staff effectively is key to keeping your museum running smoothly. Security guards keep donations and exhibits safe from potential threats, janitors keep the museum clean and well-maintained, and experts are responsible for maintaining exhibits, giving tours, and analysing discoveries to expand the museum’s knowledge base.
One of the standout features of Two Point Museum is the extensive customization options for exhibits. The game offers more customization than previous entries in the series. Players can design their museum with freeform building tools, allowing for creative placement of walls and floors. The colour wheel for item customization adds another layer of creativity, enabling players to personalize their museum like never before.
Visually, the game retains the charming and cartoony look that fans of the Two Point series love. Exhibits are detailed, and the high level of customization adds depth and richness to the overall visual experience. The sound design is equally delightful, with the return of the funny and sarcastic P.A. announcements and the beloved tunes of Two Point Radio.
Two Point Museum promises to deliver a fun and humorous simulation experience, strongly focused on creativity, customization, and museum management. For fans of the series, this instalment is shaping up to be another standout hit, allowing your creativity and management skills to shine.
