Tak 2: The Staff of Dreams is an action-adventure game released for PlayStation 2, continuing the story of Tak in a variety of environments, including tropical forests and snowy tundras. The gameplay retains the mechanics from the original, with Tak's weapon always available and mana represented by feather count. Tak can summon animal allies and unlock juju powers through gameplay rather than collection.
The gameplay is almost identical to the original Tak Game, whereas Tak's weapon is always on hand and mana is represented by feather count and not a meter. The game takes place in various locations, such as tropical forests, canyons, volcanic areas, snowy tundras and other harsh environments. There are also a number of dimensional stages, in the Dreamworld. Tak gets aid from animals, a number of which did not appear in the first game. In this game, Tak's juju magic is triggered by holding down one button and pressing combos of other buttons. Tak also earns juju powers gradually throughout the game instead of having to seek them out.
