Swords and Soldiers 2 Shawarmageddon

Oh damn, these games tell a story, just not the one they needed to tell. When i played the first game, the FIRST laugh was because the game called the viking workers "these gold diggers" (they pick up gold) and they were big boobed viking gals. THAT game came out in 2010, 4 full years before the woke mind virus infected the world. THIS game was released 4 years after such event. Right off the bat starts with an empowered female nagging at the once first main character (she actually shows up and speaks before him), This trope is further confirmed by the fact that both factions i have seen so far had a female giving orders. Now none of this has anything to do with the gameplay (i will update my review on that later), but its not a good look since i have never come accross AN ACTUALLY GOOD piece of entertainment made by wokevid infected people. UPDATE 1: As expected, the gameplay has suffered. They threw in a LOT of stuff, if i wanna play a game which has me constantly jumping all over the map, ill play me a proper RTS (hell, some SC2 sounds pretty good right now). Doesnt even compare to the first installment of the franchize, units are bloated, the ratio at which you gather res…

Hate when a game online is dead and has achievements.....

the ending cutscene isnt the same with out the stutters from the Wii u

A refined take on a tug of war game. Good interface, lots of strategic options.

Swords and Soldiers 2: Shawarmageddon, developed by Ronimo Games and published by Atari, is a wonderfully absurd and visually striking side-scrolling real-time strategy game that combines humor, accessibility, and surprisingly deep tactical gameplay. Building on the foundation of the original Swords and Soldiers, this sequel expands its scope with new factions, refined mechanics, and a renewed focus on both single-player and competitive multiplayer modes. It takes the familiar formula of base-building, resource gathering, and unit management and condenses it into a fast-paced horizontal battlefield where decisions must be made quickly and strategically. The game’s distinctive tone—equal parts parody and celebration of classic strategy tropes—makes it stand out in a genre often known for seriousness and complexity. The premise itself sets the mood for what’s to come: the Vikings, led by the hilariously over-the-top Redbeard, set out on a quest to recover their stolen shawarma. What begins as a simple food-related vendetta quickly spirals into a global conflict involving mystical Persians and demonic armies. The campaign embraces this ridiculousness with glee, combining comedic dial…

It was fun game. The art style is good, and the music is also nice. The story is ok, but the point of the game are the battles, which are pretty cool. There's many spells and units to choose from, which can certainly allow quite a few strategies, though I'm sure there's a definite strong one, just something I feel. All the levels are fairly fun to do, though the bonus medals sometimes are super tough to get, some require quite a lot of skill, which can add to the fun as well though. Honestly I don't got much to say on this, it was just a nice game to have some fun time on. Overall, a fun RTS game that's bound to be a good way to spend a few hours, though by this point you'll need a friend to do the online.
