About Orcs Must Die! 2

About this game

Let them have it, again, with your Orcs Must Die! 2 Steam PC key - the sequel to the 2011 AIAS Strategy Game of the Year from Robot Entertainment.

STORY-BASED MADNESS

Play in a campaign that picks up where the original game left off in both co-op and single-player. Play as the war mage, the headstrong hero he is, or play as the sorceress using magic to stop the hordes from overtaking you.

Speaking of hordes, they’re made up of over twenty deadly enemies so you should use every trap, weapon and upgrade available to you to stop them.

MULTIPLE NEW MODES

If you get bored with the aforementioned campaign, how about jumping into two of the new modes? Endless mode allows you to battle alone or with a friend against increasingly difficult enemies that want to kill you, or play in Classic Mode (if you own the original Orcs Must Die!) with 10 co-op versions of levels from the original game that have brand new enemies.

YOUR OFFICIAL ORCS MUST DIE! 2 STEAM PC KEY INCLUDES:

  • Endless mode and Classic Mode.
  • Strategy-fuelled solo and co-op gameplay.

The game is completely different from what I usually play but I still very much enjoy playing it. It does have a story but that is not the focus of the game - it's mainly a "let's kill orcs" game. You have to protect and defend portals from all kinds of trolls, orks, flying enemies, etc. While this idea is not new or innovative in any way, it is very well worked out. There is a huge variety of weapons, traps, upgrades and trinkets that give your character new abilities and ways to kill enemies. The levels are well designed, some acquire more thought than other, you have to come up with a new plan for each of them. I have never played the game on my own but I can say that it is a lot of fun to meet up with a friend to shoot/ slash/ blow orks into pieces. The multiplayer works really well and there even is an in-game voice chat that is not half bad.

Solid Sequel

Pretty nice concept building upon an already excellent first game. There's just something about a tower defense game where you can go ham and smash orcs by yourself, instead of placing your traps and waiting (which is equally fun here, to be fair). I think I enjoyed the levels of the first game more, but this is a decent continuation either way. Now to find someone as excited about this game to play Co-op with, and I can imagine myself replaying it quite a bit.
