All of them vastly different and having their own special ability to help you through the game. On your journey, you’ll pick up companions from across time. Obviously the demons were the bad guys and the humans rightly prevailed, but is that truly the case? Your adventure through time will lead you to the answers, and perhaps you can even change things for the better…or worse. At the core of the story is the war between humans and demons. What your character grew up knowing as the truth, but not have been entirely truthful.
It’s interesting to travel through time and see the consequences of things, such as war, then to travel back and see things from the losing side. Half the fun of Evoland 2 is just seeing what it throws at you next.Įvoland 2 is ripe with storytelling, throwing backstory and plot at you from every which way. It would be easy to fill this entire review just by mentioning all of the genres Evoland 2 touches on, but while some are mentioned, it’s probably best most are left as a surprise. Most of the adventures off the RPG genre path play as mini-games, for example, waiting tables Dining Dash style in WokDonalds. The cohesive experience is key for a game like Evoland 2 to work. Most importantly, you always feel like you’re still playing the same game. Nothing ever feels like it’s out of place and every time you stumble upon a level straight out of one of your favorite games, you can’t help but get a bit nostalgic. Such a hodgepodge of game elements seem like they would be messy, that switching between them would be jilting, but Evoland 2 makes it work. From Professor Layton type puzzles, to Match Three games, to a clearly obvious Mario platforming level, straight up to Mortal Kombat fight sequences.
Thrown into the mix are just about every other popular game you can think of. Likewise the fact you’re time traveling is represented by map changes, towns appearing and disappearing as they cease to have yet been created, or are built in the future. While it is mostly set in a retro zelda-esque environment, the graphics will vary from better to worse as you hop about “time.” As you’re displaced in time, the graphics around you will represent these changes. Where Evoland progressed through graphical changes, Evoland 2 is not nearly as linear. Evoland 2 is much longer than it’s predecessor. Evoland took you on a journey of gaming, from the classic RPG to the modern, going through its graphical changes over the course of the game. If you haven’t played Evoland, chances are you’ve probably at least heard of it.
