Swords And Soldiers 2: Shawarmageddon is out now on Steam for £10.25/€13.49/$13.4, and a little cheaper if you own either Awesomenauts or Swords And Soldiers HD. The game was apparently well received on Wii U - hopefully it can still find its niche on PC. While there were plenty of magical units and attacks in the original game, the sequel adds a whole army of demons, fully playable in skirmish and online modes. The sequel leans a little more on the fantastical side of things. Certain special spells require precision timing to place a wobbling reticle on the target you want splattered, or just mashing the mouse button for extra combo attacks. While generally focused on the strategic, there's a few light action elements to the game, too. There's a bit more to it than that, including multi-lane maps, but it's mostly a lightweight take on a normally demanding genre. As with the original Swords & Soldiers, it's mostly a game of tug-of-war, trying to get the right combination of units lined up to exploit the weaknesses of whatever troops are leading your enemies formation. Our version of the game has more info in the UI and a massive bar of hot-keyed options, which should help in keeping your troops reinforced while you focus on the front lines. Swords And Soldiers 2 looks like it's handled the hop back to PC gracefully. It's out today on PC after a long absence, and developed by Ronimo Games, better known on PC now for the still-popular platform MOBA Awesomenauts. Its meat-hungry armies of Vikings and Demons also make me wish that I had a decent barbecue setup to hand, but that's neither here nor there. retrieve the sheep that have been stolen from Redbeard’s favourite shawarma shack.Silly side-scrolling RTS Swords And Soldiers 2: Shawarmageddon might be a few years overdue (it launched on Wii U back in May 2015), but it still knows how to raise a smile.

Join them as they fight their way through the forests of Vikingland, the scorching sands of Persia and even the nether regions of Hell! All this on an honorable quest to. If that’s not enough, the developers challenge you to attempt the epic single player campaign that gives you command of Redbeard and his Vikings. Then, unleash your hordes and magic spells to make sure nothing’s left of your opponent’s base! But beware, keep your base defended or you will end up empty-handed! Let your minions mine valuable gold so you can unlock the soldiers, buildings and spells you need. In this base stomping battle extravaganza, you fight to win a fast paced tug of war whether online, locally, in split-screen or against the devious AI. From the makers of Awesomenauts comes the action-packed side-scrolling real-time strategy game: Swords and Soldiers 2 Shawarmageddon.
