This game is very similar to BW1 with some added features. If you liked BW1, you will like BW2. You can build walls and pick up multiple people now. There are many more buildings you can build. You can build them yourself, without having to rely on your people. The demon and the angel are back. They are the highlight of this game to me. The visuals are improved and the popping of terrain as you zoom in and out has been significantly reduced. The villagers are somewhat smarter, they will find work, rather than just sit and wait for something to do. The villagers aren't smart enough to go search for it, and it gets frustrating trying to expand. Building walls is similarly frustrating. It is hard to connect them together and hard to determine if someone can get around them. I built a wall up to a mountain and the enemy happily went right around it. For some reason you can build walls outside your influence area, but not roads. You get more influence by having your buildings connected to roads. To get that, I would up building a small stretch of road to the edge of my influence(which does not expand your influence), build a structure on the road (which does expand your influence), wait for the building to be built, then added another section of road. This creeping expansion takes way too long and is not all that interesting. You have to breed villagers to make an army. That makes sense to me. The problem comes when your army is lost in a battle, you have to breed your villagers and wait for them to grow up and become of age. This get back to my point about the game being to slow for me. The level of detail is amazing. You can see bugs on the ground and zoom out to 10,000 feet to see the whole island. Lionhead is to be commended for that. Overall, the game is decent, buy it used to save some money.Read full review
Meh is the best way I can describe this game. Its not terrible but its not good either. It will give you a couple hours of fun until you just get tired of the frustrating controls and uneventful gameplay. Heres the good and the bad. The Good Original idea, not many god games on the market. Like many Molyneux games you have a strong feeling of morale choice. Creature AI is very entertaining. War and casting spells can be very fun. Several maps and races to play against. The Bad It can take a very very long time to win a level and it takes even longer if you decide to win through impressing people instead of war. Troops take an ungodly amount of time to create whereas your enemy will pop them out like rabbits. Your creature will sometimes completly disregard your orders. very mediocre graphics for 2009 standards. Annoying voice acting and whining from your subjects you will hear "We need food!" so much you will just turn off your sound. Generally frustrating controls. You will often need to get to a place quickly but the controls spaz out and you will not get there in time. Overall The game has a few very strong qualites but several annoying qualities. I wouldnt get it unless you were a huge fan of Black and White one.Read full review
the game is as I remember it except it isn't compatible with windows 10 so there's a forum for B&W 2 that has the patches to get it work

This game is very fun, and is great for younger kids. I Like RPG, and that is exactly what it is. this take days to beat, well for me, I just wanted to enjoy it otherwise, it would take a few days. But after a while, you will get tired, and I did myself, so I never got to finish the last level. they repeat, so each level is the same, just gets harder. For what this game recommends for the system, the graphic s are pretty good. I recommend this for anyone, even smaller ones. I bought it because I saw the game play and thought it was worth the price I paid. GREAT GAME!
Great game overall, really ahead of it's time from it first coming out! Brings me back to my childhood!
