Savage 2: A Tortured Soul
Savage 2: A Tortured Soul is a fantasy and science-fiction themed
computer game that combines elements of the first-person shooter,
real-time strategy, and action role-playing game genres. It is the
sequel to Savage:
The Battle for Newerth. A large portion of Savage 2 is the
first person shooter aspect.
However, this game is not merely about twitch reactions and being the
best at killing enemy players.
The setting is a post-apocalyptic world where the Legion of
Man and the
Beast Horde battle for supremacy. Human units include builders, scouts,
savages, legionnaires, chaplains, steambuchet, and battering ram. For
the beast horde faction there are conjurers, shape shifters, summoners,
predators, shaman, tempests, and behemoth. Each faction has a
weapon and a specific play style. Besides the 2 starting
races, there is another race known as the Helbourne.
Hellbourne are special units available to both teams. To gain
access to
them you must build a Sacrificial Shrine over a Scar and earn Souls
from killing enemy players. Each Hellbourne unit has a specified soul
cost, more souls equals more power.
Part of what makes Savage 2 unique is the role of "commander"
- a unit
who plays from the real-time strategy perspective and helps organize
his team's efforts to defeat the enemy.
There is a free 5 hour online trial available.
