The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 is a comedypoint-and-click adventure video game created by the German developer King Art Games. The game, a sequel to The Book of Unwritten Tales, was published by Nordic Games on 20 February 2015 for Linux, Microsoft Windows and OS X. Console ports for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One were released in September 2015. The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions were released exclusively as digital downloads. The Wii U version was released on June 7, 2016 in Europe and North America.

The game's four protagonists, Wilbur a novice gnome mage, Nate a narcissistic human, Ivo an elf princess and a furry alien creature known as "Critter", partake in an adventure in the fantasy land of Aventasia. A magic force is turning beasts into puppies and castles into dollhouses. The four heroes reunite to combat this unusual transformation of Aventasia.

English translation and voice recording was provided by OMUK. The game was successfully crowdfunded on Kickstarter. Before its official release, the game was launched on Steam Early Access. The game's launch trailer poked fun at video game monetisation strategies, such as free-to-play and microtransactions.
