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! FEATURES - glorious one handed, portrait-style, retro-RPG action - over 16 hours of minimalist adventure - explore a huge world, gain experience and rise in power - delve into dark dungeons for loot and riches - three save-game slots - save games to the cloud and download them later or to another device - no in-app purchases. buy once, own forever - special spell and environmental effects - OVER 8 colors - realistic moving water and lava
