Planet Stronghold 2 is the sequel to the first sci-fi VN/RPG made by Winter Wolves.
Several years have passed since the colony of Planet Stronghold was saved from the Descorian threat. Now Lisa/Joshua Nelson have been promoted to Captain, but an increase in rank comes with greater responsibilities. Even without the threat of the Descorians, the colony is at risk of collapsing due to limited water supplies, food scarcity, and political instability.
Additionally, there are many alien factions scattered throughout the planet competing with Nelson and her/his team for the precious resources.
Of greater concern is also a series of earthquakes which have scientists worried that the planet is on the verge of a big change, one which could wipe out all life on it.
Like the first title, you'll need to save your colony of Planet Stronghold from all kinds of threats. Explore the new isometric map, capture resources, craft new items, and fight battles against hostile aliens...and other humans.
Planet Stronghold 2 features a branching plot, and you can choose the starting conditions at the beginning, allowing you to continue from where you left off from the first game of the series. Did you become a rebel or were you loyal to your king? Did you romance anyone or did you remain single?
No matter what you choose at the beginning, in the end you might be lucky to get out of Planet Stronghold...alive.

Recommended on sale for fans of the original. Some clunky systems and a strong tether to the first game may make it less approachable for newcomers, but for those familiar it is worth rejoining the cast. However, there isn't enough new or added to be worth full price expectations in light of some stumbling blocks. I would recommend you also check out Sunrider, Our Adventurer Guild, Magical Diary Wolf Hall, Sakura Dungeon, Serment Contract with a Devil, or Cherry Tree High Girls Fight that all have better polish on their systems. +Art style +Class/skills customization +Exploration, events, quests +Impactful choices +Continues the story where it left off +Some good music tracks +Character alignment, relationships +Save anytime +Turn-based battles +Some battle voice/barks +Auto battle option +Variety of weapons, armor, items +Choices on level up -Barebones options -Can't customize appearance -Lacking tooltips -Mouse only -Some hidden controls (H to hide UI) -No rebinding -Buggy, some error screens, UI/stat issues -Tutorial text info dump -Some areas lack any music -No voiced dialogue -Some sound effects are piercing -Poor volume normalization -Low quality battle voice -Lacking backs…2 found this helpful
A great followup to the original that improves upon it for a quick, but fun adventure where choices actually do matter. It was great to revisit these characters, though bittersweet for it to end. Maybe one day we'll get a spin off set in the same world. If you enjoyed the other Winter Wolves games you'll have a great time with this one too. I know I did.
What a thrilling experience. The writing was improved tremendously between the 1st and 2nd game. It introduces interesting politics between factions, while doing an amazing job of setting up that the situation is constantly tense and dire. This is a hidden gem and an amazing one at that.
Planet stronghold II is an adventure game, with a fully adult cast. At first glance it might seem to be a visual novel with a lot of choices, but in the native mode fighting enemies and soldier management will take up a lot of time too. Thankfully the combat system is interesting enough. While the game can be played in visual novel mode too, I wouldn’t recommend it for the first playthrough. All it does is auto complete successfully all combat, but without XP and loot reward. It renders all combat skills, all equipment and leveling up useless. Buying/selling, upgrading equipment has no point. Also the fights add a much needed change to the game’s pace. The graphics of the game is good. The character portraits are aesthetic. In the visual novel parts they will have several expressions and poses. The backgrounds are reasonably detailed, and there will be a lot of different locations. I liked the music, there was enough variety for it to not become grating. There was only one combat music, but even that was reasonably neutral. In fact most music was surprisingly good for such an indy title. If you finish the game, you will listen to a song, that continues into the credits. The …

Cudos to the team who made this masterpiece! I remember the Loren princess, enjoyed it ages ago, have a good feeling about this one too :) Now I only have to persuade Steam to always show me the titles from the devs I love ^^
