Universal – Lowlander II: Lowerlander (by Flat Black Films)

Details

LOWERLANDER is the sequel to Flat Black’s 2015 somewhat-acclaimed retro-rpg, Lowlander!

“Lowlander II is a great game, possibly the most enjoyable, largest and best produced game of its type available that’s not got the Ultima name attached to it. ” – My Boxed Universe

**** 1/2 stars from TouchArcade!

Yarak means business. She ain’t got time for you! Get that armor on- there’s adventuring to be done!

Generations after the mighty LOWLANDER vanquished the nefarious Azamon, a new villain has arisen. The evil enchantress, YARAK! The realm needs a new hero — will you be the one?

Styled after the early Ultima games from Richard Garriott, Lowerlander will make your iPhone 7 Plus feel like an Apple II+. That’s a good thing! Plus, Lowlander’s new sibling packs the same one-handed portrait-style gameplay that sensible people prefer!

TouchArcade had this to say about the first one’s shameless imitation of Ultima II: “4.5 stars … Lowlander is an interesting case, because it’s not often that a game paying direct homage to a classic is actually better than said classic.” Unquestionably undeserved, but that’s high praise!
