Alundra 2 iso fr

You are Flint, a renegade swordsman who is seeking revenge on the pirates who killed your mother. Alexia, the Princess of Varuna, seeks you out to help with her quest to save her father, the king. He has been abducted and replaced with a wooden puppet under the control of a sinister Baron. In an epic struggle between good and evil, you will fight pirates, strange beasts, evil sorcerers, and solve challenging puzzles to save the realm and its king.

Alundra 2 is an action role-playing game with a nice dose of puzzle-solving and is leaps and bounds better than the original Alundra. The gameplay is better, more controllable and more interesting visually, and the story is far more engaging.

Overall, it boils down to some leveling up and character development as well as a lot of puzzles based on moving and stacking blocks. I must say that the big irritation in this game is its lack of being a sequel -- while it is called Alundra 2 , it has nothing at all in common with its predecessor. The puzzles consist of "hit the switch and run" or "stack the boxes" type puzzles.

Although they were neat, none of them had me pulling my hair out, and that really disappointed me. I never considered myself good at those types of puzzles and generally miss the big hints on how to complete them.

But no puzzle in this game even had me worried. I was very impressed with the level design in this game. The dungeon layout and graphical quality are quite good.

There are a few opacity problems with the moving camera but most of those were minor and rare. In addition to good level design, I found that the boss fights were pretty decent too. They were pretty hard in Normal difficulty mode, but not impossible. The main issue with Boss fights and regular monster encounters is that they take a long time and they are difficult for artificial reasons. For instance, in one fight I got locked in a room and had to kill the bad guys, but they shot fire that seemed to hit me from five feet away, not the distance from which they were actually firing.

There are a number of points in the game when you get to play a sort of mini-game. These mini-games are really fun. Some examples are a rail-cart type race that runs down the circular stairway away from a big nasty boss monster and Casino games where you can win special medals, collectible prizes or ultra-rare items.

While the voice acting is really quite good as well as the translation , the music left a lot to be desired. I just got tired of listening to it. The graphics are pretty good for a Playstation game -- the system just does not have the power for really good 3D rendering. However, Contrail managed to pull off some decent animations and characters within those limitations. I was really impressed with the overall quality of the game as well as the translation job that Activision did with the script -- the dialogue was actually funny and always made sense, a serious problem with many translations of games that were originally done in Japanese.

Alundra 2 is a solid game, a lot of fun, and is well worth purchasing. Crafted by some of the same people who worked on Genesis titles like Landstalker, it was an instant hit amongst RPG fans. Matrix Software and Contrail the developer behind games like Wild Arms have come together to craft the sequel, coming to the U. Gone are the 2D graphics of the original; they're replaced by a 3D world.

If you're thinking this is a straight sequel to the first--it's not. When Flint finds out that an evil force is turning people into wind-up slaves, he and the princess Alexia take them on. Of course, there's an army of wind-up warriors and bosses just waiting for a good fight. The game's 10 bosses range from a psychotic wind-up cat, to a raging bull and other beastly burdens.

But as in the first game, there's a pattern to their attacks. Gameplay is much like the first--dungeons filled with puzzles. Some are obvious, some not so obvious or frustratingly so. You'll have to throw switches, set off bombs and light candles to pass through. Since it's in 3D now, you'll also find yourself manipulating the camera quite a bit to get just the right angle on the action you can also zoom in and out for better views. Instead of the overworld from the first game, you travel to different areas via a world map, and eventually you will free a friend who'll help you get around.

It's estimated that there's a good hours of pure RPG gamin' fun to be had here, with over two hours of cutscenes and more than 60 hidden items. Activision is preparing a new intro to the game for the U. They've also added an "easy" difficulty setting to make it less frustrating.
