For The King II - Review @ Game Space

FOR THE KING II PC REVIEW: AS FRUSTRATING AS IT IS FUN

There are never too many good cooperative RPGs, and discovering diamonds among the mountains of indie titles is not easy, but at this time of year, when the AAA releases are fading, the time of interesting indie projects begins, which I will say can be surprising. One of those close to this genre is For The King II, and today we will try to tell you what, how, and why it is worth attention and how to play it in general. This is our For the King II PC review.

WHAT IS FOR THE KING II AND HOW TO PLAY IT?
For The King II is a turn-based “tabletop” roguelite RPG for four friends who do not have the opportunity to gather in one place and play something more classic and truly tabletop, or simply for lovers of cooperative adventures. You can go through the title with a smaller team, or even alone, but the more people, the more fun, since a lot is tied to team interaction here.

[...]

SUMMARY
It's still the same For The King, which only pretended to have changed, but lied, and therefore will continue to humiliate players - cruelly breaking them off, leading them through endless dungeons with a bunch of rooms without a single store, playing on emotions, taking away hope and generating unique situations in each playthrough. This is why we, masochists, love her.

Score: 8/10

We’ve been working hard making For The King II and are so grateful for your words of encouragement and the building excitement we feel from you about the game coming this year. We are a small Indie development team and it really does mean everything to have both your feedback and support.

We are making this game for you and want to deliver the best experience we can, which is why we now need your help to really test the game into Beta.

Sign-ups are now open and the Closed Beta will run from the 10th – 16th May so please join us and bring your friends!

We know multiplayer functionality is so important and is part of what makes For The King such a fun game to play. We have been testing with a small group of Alpha players but this Beta will help us understand how the game performs live with significantly more players and all of the variables that come with the real world player experience.

As such, please expect that you may have some stability issues and you may discover gameplay bugs, this is a Beta in which we want to push the game as much as possible so we can find as many issues as we can pre-launch.

With your help we will be able to polish and buff For The King II, we can’t wait to discover what you think of the game!

See you in Fahrul and remember to spread the word Adventurers!

With the fanatical Queensguard on every street corner and ordinary citizens turned bandit in every alley, will you risk the threat of treason and band together with fellow outlaws to bring an end to the Queen’s oppressive reign?

For The King II builds on the challenging blend of Strategy, JRPG Combat, and Roguelike elements from the hugely popular and successful co-op sensation, For The King, to create an epic new experience.

Brutal Turn-Based Tabletop RPG Combat
When the dice determine whether you live or die, you’ll have to pick your battles carefully. Arm your characters with the skills and gear needed to succeed in this famously unforegiving combat system that rewards strategy and foresight.

Online and Local multiplayer for up to four players
Strategize and fight side-by-side with your friends in the everchanging world of Fahrul or split up to claim all of the wonderous loot for yourself - or die trying!

Create your perfect party with Pen & Paper Style Characters
Choose your party from a diverse selection of classes; each with their own unique stats and abilities – before embarking into the world on deadly adventures!

Seize your opportunity with Roguelike loot drops!
Loot fallen enemies and explore deadly dungeons to discover weapons and armor that offer unique abilities, tactical advantages and powerful synergies. The more you play the more you permanently unlock items for your characters between playthroughs.

Never adventure the same way twice
From the vast number of character and item combinations to the procedurally generated maps, quests, loot, and events – the world of Fahrul is always changing and will constantly keep you on your toes!

Take in the sights and sounds of a reimagined Fahrul
With a whole host of new biomes to explore, a beautiful updated art style and a brand-new original soundtrack – For The King II transports you deep into the wonders of Fahrul, leading you further than ever before into this stunningly imagined land of adventure.

The Queen’s late husband, King Bronner, may long be dead, but you must do this for your village, for your realm, For The King!
