LOWERLANDER is the sequel to Flat Black's 2015 somewhat-acclaimed retro-rpg, Lowlander! "Lowlander II is a great game, possibly the most enjoyable, largest and best produced game of its type available that’s not got the Ultima name attached to it. " - My Boxed Universe **** 1/2 stars from TouchArcade! Yarak means business. She ain't got time for you! Get that armor on- there's adventuring to be done! Generations after the mighty LOWLANDER vanquished the nefarious Azamon, a new villain has arisen. The evil enchantress, YARAK! The realm needs a new hero -- will you be the one? Styled after the early Ultima games from Richard Garriott, Lowerlander will make your iPhone 7 Plus feel like an Apple II+. That's a good thing! Plus, Lowlander's new sibling packs the same one-handed portrait-style gameplay that sensible people prefer! TouchArcade had this to say about the first one’s shameless imitation of Ultima II: “4.5 stars ... Lowlander is an interesting case, because it's not often that a game paying direct homage to a classic is actually better than said classic.” Unquestionably undeserved, but that’s high praise!

Hope there will be a /// ### 2/5 — Insta-killed by a dialog choice *2026-04-13, version 1.4.1* Played same character for days. Built my character up to wander 6 dungeons without having to visit a town. Made a choice not to kneel and was insta-killed. No chance to run or fight. Time for the app to be installed-deleted for wasting my time. ### 5/5 — Bravo! *2026-03-22, version 1.4.1* Thank you! I was obsessed with these games as a boy and this really scratched the itch of a lifetime. I loved these! My only real complaint with this game is that it’s so good that it makes all other games seem disappointing. And since I have already completed it, I can only wait for Lowlander III and remain disappointed with all other games. More please!!! ### 5/5 — Great fun *2026-03-18, version 1.4.1* Fun mini retro adventure. Am loving it. Definitely an improvement over the first one ( the first one is good though ). Would like to be able to get more clues/hints. Would be good to have a link to a faq or forum for this in the game. ### 5/5 — Bravo! *2026-03-12* Thank you! I was obsessed with these games as a boy and this really scratched the itch of a lifetime. I loved these! More please!!! ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2025-12-25, version 1.4.1* If you are looking for a game like Ultima 2/3, this and Lowlander are for you! The developer is also very involved in the thread for the game. You just do not see that! I wish there were more games like this, but it would be bad for me. I would probably not be married if there were! Kudos to the developer! The game itself is very detailed. The world is large and the quests are many. If you have some time to get involved in a game, pick this up, make sure your fridge is stocked and start playing... ### 5/5 — Le to- pour les van de Ultimate 2 etc… *2025-08-15* Le meilleur rpg old school.un hommage aux meilleurs titres de Lord British. MAis un jeu avec ça propre personnalité.tres agréable a jouer et avec de l humour en plus. ### 5/5 — although the graphics are low bit, your imagination is unlimited. This game enables your imagination *2024-10-19, version 1.3.2* A few things: if you haven’t played Lowlander 1, finish that first. If you have played Lowlander 1, this game is a worthy sequel. You will need to bring your own background music though! I am shocked that I was able to beat the game without a walkthrough, but I did need a few hints. It’s a good game balance in action. The level of story is very good. Very relaxing and engaging game to play with one thumb! This isn’t a cheap casual game. This is a AAA mobile retro game. It’s not a rouge with randomly generated levels. It’s a true beautifully crafted map and adventure. ### 5/5 — Great *2024-10-14, version 1.3.2* Nothing too long winded, great game. Was sick in bed and had played the first one, oldschool ultima feel but more modern and simplified progression. Think I clocked in about 13 hours to finish and enjoyed it all the way. ### 5/5 — Stealth mission tip *2023-12-04, version 1.3.2* PSA: You don’t have to do the Shebastian stealth mission all in one go. If you have the spell Wisk, you can get yourself out of a jam, and you’ll get to keep any progress you made in the stealth mission (so long as you remember to save). ## Frequently asked questions about Lowlander II ### What kind of game is Lowlander II: Lowerlander?
