This official add-on for Die by the Sword comes with the following new
features: Revised Quests, Increased Character Selections, Cooperative Quest Mode,
New Monsters, New Weapons, Battle Arenas and New Multiplayer Games. It stars Enric's
aptly loudmouthed mate Maya, offers long stretches of cavern and dungeon interspersed
with the rare but always banal block puzzle. It expands the combat arena with several
new battlefields and lets you play as the new monsters in addition to multiple
versions of returning characters (with different skins and weapons). There's a new king-of-the-hill mode, as well as the fairly amusing ogre hockey, in which you try to
smack a subservient kobold into the enemy player's goal. It isn't any longer than the
original though, there are no cinematics, no ending, and really just a lot of
repetitive combat that seemed much more contextual in the original game. Sure, you'll
fight a few new enemies including a minotaur and a big beetle, and you can play the
campaign as several different characters, but there's no new texture maps and no new
architecture. |
