Might & Magic II
Might and Magic 1 was one of the best and most successful mobile games in the short history of java games. It was only the question of time when the developer, French famous company Gameloft, introduces the sequel of this game. It has taken two years. Nowadays, java games players could experience their adventure in the world of Might and Magic, the world very well known also from the PC games. Let’s make a detailed look on this game.Might and Magic 2 (MaM2) is one of the best mobile games I have ever played. In brief, it is action RPG game with very strong story line. I have never seen such cinematics in any java game (one exception could be Darkest Fear 3: Nightmare by Rovio Mobile). MaM2 has an intro, an outro and you will see also lot of cinematics during the game. The story of the game is very interesting, you will have to go through lot of texts, but you will be in excitement what will happen with your hero in the next action.
Graphic side of the game is very beautiful, you will see miscellaneous surroundings (village, castle, ship interiors, forest, icy land, etc) also weather effects such as rain, storm, moving clouds, flying birds etc. Animations of your hero are displayed very well also your enemies are various. As your hero improves his skills and gets better equipment (boots, armor, helmet, weapon) you will see the difference on the display. At the beginning of your quest he looks like a village boy, but at the end of the story he is respected knight.
RPG system is very understandable. You will improve three basic skills: attack, defense and speed by progressing through character’s levels. This system is very well prepared. Unfortunately, you can only advance to the character’s level no. 40. If you reach level no.40, you will no more gain experience points and advance to next levels any more. I think that developers could programmed at least 100 characters levels, because in the middle of the game you advance to level 40 and then the game losses it’s attraction.
Playing time is sparkling. I have played the game for one week and finished it today in the morning. If I count the pure played time, the result number is 8-10 hours. Of course the game could be finished in shorter time, but I think it would be pity. The game is very open. You have always one main quest and you could have one side quest. There are many side quests. You can leave your main “story-line” quest and begin to accomplish side quests and improve your character’s level. You will earn money and in the shop you can buy improved equipment or various bottles which refill your mana, health or provide you other advantages during fights with the monsters. You can beat the enemies either by weapon (sword) or by magic spells. As you advance through character’s levels, you will learn new fighting combos and new magic spells (but you can use always only the last – it means the strongest spell). Game has 6 levels, but they are very long levels and between levels you have unlimited time for free movement through the world of MaM2 - time for accomplishing of the side quests.
Music in the game is the high standard as in all games produced by Gameloft. Each level has own melody in the background, you will hear sounds during the fighting, advancing to new character’s levels, etc. The music will never bore you. Game will save your progress on the checkpoints, or if you accomplish some quest. There are many checkpoints and you will not have to repeat big parts of the game levels if your hero dies. Sometimes you will have to solve some puzzle and you will have to pass also the mini-games. The game is very variable. For me was the biggest problem ride on the dragon in the final level of the game, I had to repeat it at least for 15 times.
Might and Magic 2 is very good game. The total rating of the game is 9/10. There is always something missing to 10/10 evaluation, but it is not very distant. RPG system (number of character’s levels, more battle equipment) could be developed more detailed. This is my one and only reproach. If you played and enjoyed Might and Magic 1, you will be satisfied, because with Might and Magic 2 you will get even better game, which is more focused on RPG development of the main character and with even attractive story. If you want to know what is nowadays mobile game maximum performance, do not hesitate and try Might and Magic 2. Trust me, you will not regret.
