Black & white 2

As in the first game, the player is a deity called from heaven to help those in need. Much has changed in Eden since the first part of the game. The player is the only god, but the Creatures (Titans) remain. The player is worshiped by only one people, which he must educate at his discretion (good or evil). The player also has a creature that is the physical embodiment of his will, which takes the form of a humanoid cow, lion, monkey or wolf (it is also possible to add a tiger to the game). The creature can grow up to 11 meters high. The creature’s behavior strongly depends on the player’s attitude (behavior), as well as on the player’s action.

Unlike its predecessor, “Black and White 2” has elements of real-time strategy, where the player can train and control the troops of the tribe.

The game interface has become more standard, unlike the first game, where there were no menus or icons.

There are only four people in the game: Vikings , Aztecs , Japanese and Greeks . The tribe of the player belongs to the Greek people. The Egyptians also meet, but the Aztecs conquered them so long ago that the Egyptians forgot what freedom is and became part of the Aztec empire.

As before, the player can create miracles (spells) using the cursor hand. This can be done either using the same gesture system as in the first game or using the standard interface. The game has 6 ordinary miracles: fire, lightning, water, a shield, healing and a meteor, and 4 epic ones: a hurricane, a siren, an earthquake and a volcano.

The strategy of the player depends on the chosen path. The evil deity likes the torment of people and the capture of enemy cities by huge armies. A good deity pays the lion's share of attention to his people, taking care of all their needs and increasing the cultural level of cities in order to make people of other villages immigrate to their city.

• The development of people takes place in big cities, where they live behind a reliable stone wall. Brick houses replaced the primitive village huts.
• Unlike the first part, the computer enemy began to conduct tougher and more aggressive battle tactics. The player will have to think out good strategic moves to defeat an opponent.
• The virtual universe now consists of eleven new worlds with five unique tribes. The future of these locations and people is completely in the hands of the player.
• Divine powers have increased due to the introduction of new spells "Earthquake" and "Volcano". The first can destroy a big city in a matter of seconds, and the second can flood with deadly lava. ^[one]

The player returns to the world of Eden (apparently the game takes place some time after the events of the first part. On the islands you can see the remaining traces of the activity of the murdered Nemesis) following the path of “pure prayer” and discovers a huge Greek city (it will be very difficult to rebuild it yourself) which was attacked by a no less huge Aztec army (apparently believing in the crazy god Nemesis killed in part 1, having intentions to avenge the death of his master and, apparently, preparing to revive him). After the player manages to save a small number of Greeks, they get to another island where the player is trained (Player’s advisers - good and evil, an old man with a halo on the cloud and a demon, teach the player how to manage the army and construction, as well as how to interact with his Being - “Titan”) and takes the thorny path to the restoration of the former power of his people and, of course, himself. The main goal in the game is the destruction of the great Aztec empire. But for this, the player will have to go through the lands of the Vikings (Norwegians) and the Japanese, conquering these peoples along the way. After defeating the Aztecs, they call on God (apparently greatly transformed after the defeat in the first part of the Nemesis) and the game ends.

Creature

The creature is, as in the first part, the embodiment of your strength. It is brought up by the “carrot and stick” method, for example, if you hit a creature that has eaten a stone, it will try not to eat them anymore, and if you stroke the creature, on the contrary, it will try to eat more stones. There was a period of digestion of food. Now, if a creature has been eaten by several people, then in case of bowel movements or burping, undigested people will survive. The same rule applies to resources randomly eaten by the creature. Also, the creature acquired, unlike the first part, a “steel stomach”: now it can eat pieces of houses, stones, trees, barrels, etc. without consequences, which does not affect the creature. True, in the event of bowel movements or burping, most of this “food” will leave the creature’s body in its original form. In the amateur version of Super Creature, the creature is huge and picks up and devours the whole house without any problems. True, the defecation of this creature means disaster and the end of the game.
