My second review. Enjoy.
Graphics: (Score: 7/10)
All RTP, like the first episode if you have played it. Unlike the first episode, there are some spots where mapping is kinda off in details in the new maps. I'm not saying that Morency is a bad mapper, (it's his first game, so take it easy) but on the other side, he did well in small maps where he is able to "stuff" it all in, if you know what I mean.
Music: (Score:8/10)
Again, all RTP. Enough said.
Story: (Score: 8/10)
If you have not played the first episode yet, you should download this because it contains both episodes. But I'm reviewing about Morency's work on episode two because I already did for the first episode last year. *SPOILER ALERT*
Anyway, episode two continues from where Rodpop ended last episode, the part when he banned Dave and that fairy from ruining UI. In this episode, Seraph and Zeta recently discovered that spam blots from their "previous site" appeared in the island as well, and shares this to Rodpop and Nickyout (AKA LOLninja) so they would hunt down the source of the spam blots' creator. Later, you'll soon discover... You know what, I'll rate this an 8 before I spoil everything :p
One final thing. More fun stuff if you talk to new people and stuff. More sense of humor required if you're serious into stuff, like what I'm doing, sorta.
Battles: (Score: 7/10)
Not sure whether if I reviewed about battles in the previous episode but whatever.
In episode two, some enemies are too easy (those dumbass blots) and some too hard (the episode two's monster treasure). I'm not sure if Morency kept his mind on battles; but seriously, are the spam blots easy to kill in just one or two hits? But then again, there are battles that can actually lead you to a Game Over if you're not careful. (especially if you're goin' solo) The Final Boss of episode two isn't that all surprising either. The boss attacks as weak as the retarded blots, and nowhere close to Dave the Blade. In addition, episode one's final boss have Power to increase his attack power and deal over 60 damage; but episode two's just kept damaging at around 50 or below without any enhancement of sort. Oh well, at least those healers were a nice challenge though.
Overall: (Score: 7.5/10, rounded to 8)
A nice sequel of Rodpop's UI community game. I recommend those who haven't played it yet. Why? It's friggin awesome, It's first Morency's game. And Rodpop and Seraph are in it! What else can I say? This may not be the best game ever, but if you have some spare time, spend it by killing spam and kicking their asses in this nice sequel. Over and out ;)
