Paign 2 is a sequel to an impressive indie open-world action RPG adventure that has been inspired by the Gothic series. It contains everything I loved about the first game in abundance, while also introducing a few new gameplay mechanics.

The game starts at the exact moment its predecessor ended - in the aftermath of our epic fight against the dragon Paign.

Due to events that I won't spoil, our hero loses all his powers and has to start his journey anew in a distant part of the world. Here, we must regain our former strength, learn new useful skills, and prepare to face a threat unlike any we've encountered before.

As in the first game, we explore a vast open world, run errands for its various inhabitants, pick all the junk we see lying around, and defeat numerous enemies using familiar swipe-based combat moves.

While the game has a clearly defined quest line, our freedom is never limited. So we can go where we want and interact with the world however we like - even if we decide to kill everyone we meet.

We also freely choose which skills to learn and which factions to join. These choices significantly impact the gameplay experience, giving the game a good amount of replayability.

The biggest new feature in Paign 2 is a day-night cycle, which not only forces us to carry around a stack of torches but also alters the NPCs' daily routines and even enables unique time-related quests. We can also now cook food at campfires to increase their restoration stats, and cast a couple of brand new spells.

Paign 2 is a $6.49 premium game without ads or iAPs.

This is a must-try if you enjoyed the first Paign game – there aren’t many like it on mobile.
