Swap Heroes 2 is a continuation of a successful turn-based strategy game with RPG elements. Sequel, unlike the “one” released exclusively on iOS devices, also found its way to smartphones and tablets running on the Android. The game was designed by independent developer Chris Savory from the Savory Games studio, the creator of The Boy with Bombs.
Swap Heroes 2 is an extension of the original. The game therefore boils down to turn-based clashes with increasingly difficult waves of opponents – this time in ten new locations. The characteristic exchange tactic has returned, where before each round the player has to make one change in the team formation (e.g. moving to the first line of the character who was in the previous action at the back). The basic mode of play is Campaign, in which the goal is to defeat the sinister Shadow Knight, although you can also have fun in a completely new Endless Mode option, where you should get the best score.
The first step after the game starts is to gather a four-player team. The player chooses from a group of eight characters representing different classes (including new ones, such as the Monk and Wilkolak), and then starts fighting, in which on the other side of the barricade stands more than thirty types of opponents (not lacking among them powerful bosses). There is one more element that distinguishes the game – while the heroes in front attack enemies directly, the heroes in the second line make use of special abilities. For example, the priest heals team members and the wizard uses offensive spells.
For victories, the player receives experience points and gold, thanks to which he raises character stats and buys improvements. This is essential, as the opponents you meet are becoming more powerful. The game ends with the death of one of the team members – the game should be started anew. Graphics, maintained in 16-bit style, still pleases the eye. The party is also accompanied by an extended soundtrack by Matt Creamer.
