While it's nice that you can now build crossroad signs that help your followers move around the town more easily, this and other features don't seem to have a big impact on the overall game. The expansion does introduce new building types and powers. You can also use the mouse to punish or reward your creature for its behavior, so it's easy to quickly train it to do what you want, from fertilizing fields with its manure to knocking down enemy walls. Just use the mouse to do everything from laying out cities to picking up and dropping citizens around on the map. Regardless of whether you import an existing creature or start anew, you'll begin the expansion with a boatload of tribute points, and you'll have to purchase the buildings and powers that you'll start with.Īgain, it's simple and easy to build up your follower's cities, as pretty much the entire game can be played without ever touching the keyboard. There are two new creatures to choose from, as well, boosting the total up to six. If you played Black & White 2, you can import your existing creature to Battle of the Gods, but if you didn't play that game, you can jump into the expansion immediately with a new creature. The core gameplay remains pretty much unchanged in the expansion, though you do get to battle it out on a handful of new islands, some of which feel downright huge compared to those seen in Black & White 2. Once again, it'll be up to you to crush this rival god on various isles by nurturing your followers and building a flourishing civilization that lets you either assimilate the Aztec god's followers peacefully or militarily. Just when you thought that everything was okay, a new undead god appears, complete with an undead army of skeletons-not to mention a cool, undead new creature. As you'd expect, Battle of the Gods picks up after the events of Black & White 2. The game takes its name from the fact that you can be as good or as evil as you want, from being a benevolent god in a happy land to being an evil god in a dark and twisted land. The creature remains one of Black & White's most-unique features, and he can be trained to be the ultimate warrior.īattle of the Gods once again puts you in the role of a nameless god whose existence depends upon having devoted worshippers. Still, when talking about Black & White 2, that isn't such a bad thing. Like any expansion, Battle of the Gods features new levels and abilities to play with, though you may find that it's just more of the same. Six months after Black & White 2 hit stores comes Black & White 2: Battle of the Gods, an expansion pack that adds some new content for would-be gods everywhere to enjoy.
