![]() Of course, it’s up to you to suck the life out these beautiful landscapes and thankfully the game does a great job of expressing that too. The game does a great job of offering a distinction between ‘good’ and ‘evil’ in-game too – whilst your dungeon looks like a drab, dreary and menacing place, the ‘good guys’ have high rising castles that are both full of colour and life. Whilst Dungeons 2 doesn’t offer incredibly detailed graphics that’ll blow you mind, its simple aesthetic style feels creative and so full of life that it’s a pleasure to explore the world around you and interact with its inhabitants. Sure, it does take some getting used to initially, but developers Realmforge Studios have done a pretty great job overall. I never got into a situation where I actually struggled to do anything in-game with most of the functions easily performed with the press of a button or flick of a stick. Whilst RTS titles haven’t always had a great track record in transitioning mouse and keyboard controls over to a controller, Dungeons 2 does a pretty good job of mapping all of its functions to the Dualshock 4 competently. It’s full of clichés, character stereotypes and predictable moments, but there’s also plenty of comedic references to titles like ‘ Lord Of The Rings’, ‘Game Of Thrones’ and even the classic dungeon simulator ‘Dungeon Keeper’ that shows that the game isn’t trying to take itself too seriously. There’s nothing particularly enthralling about the story, but it’s entertaining enough that it’ll keep you interested in what’s going on. His performance is genuinely entertaining though and there are even slight nods to his previous role seeing as he’s constantly telling you what to do and complains if you don’t do it. Much like The Stanley Parable, the narrator tells the story of the events as they unfold through the use of a sarcastic and often condescending tone – there’s a very British feel to the humour of the game. Gamers who’ve previously played through The Stanley Parable may find the voice of Dungeons 2’s narrator familiar – Kevan Brighting has returned to video game narration with another fantastic performance of a well written script. ![]() – There’s a well written script paired with a great job by the narrator – With Dungeons 2 we certainly have something that fills the seventeen year old void that’s been left since Dungeon Keeper 2’s release – we all know the mobile game doesn’t count… It’s great fun and you’ll get hours upon hours of entertainment working underground (and believe me, the game has a ton of content to work through). Whether I was upgrading my army or my structures, there always seemed to be something new I was able to do. I was impressed with the freedom I had to create my dungeon too. The obvious comparison would be to the fantastic Dungeon Keeper series – you’ll be carefully constructing your dungeon, having your minions gather resources, creating an army of monstrosities and then making sure you keep them happy (or alternatively slap them around a bit – you are evil after all). Of the two gameplay elements you’ll have most of your fun creating your dungeons. The gameplay of Dungeons 2 is split up between two things – creating and maintaining your dungeon headquarters and then facing off against your enemies in battle. Taking over the underworld isn’t enough though – this time The Dungeon Lord will extend his dominion over the puny humans and attempt to conquer the overworld too!” “The Dungeon Lord is back – and this time he’s serious! In Dungeons 2, fulfil the Dungeon Lord’s insatiable quest for vengeance by recruiting fearsome new monsters from all corners of the underworld in order to undertake his evil bidding.
