Released in 2013, Anomaly 2 is a real-time strategy game developed and published by 11 bit studios. It is the sequel to the award-winning Anomaly: Warzone Earth and offers players a unique gameplay experience with its hybrid tower offense and tower defense mechanics.
Storyline
Anomaly 2 is set in a post-apocalyptic world where humanity is on the brink of extinction. The game follows the story of Commander Simon Lynx as he leads his team of soldiers to search for vital resources and fight against the alien machines known as the “Morphids”. The story unfolds over 14 missions, each with its own challenges and objectives.
Gameplay
Unlike traditional strategy games where players build and defend structures, Anomaly 2 puts players in the role of an attacker. The player takes control of a convoy of military vehicles and must navigate through enemy territory while facing various obstacles and enemy units. The key to success lies in strategic decision-making and the use of the convoy’s different abilities.
The game features a variety of units, each with unique abilities and roles in combat. Players must carefully plan their route and deploy the right units at the right time to overcome the different challenges and enemy types. The convoy is also equipped with a special “morphing” ability that allows players to transform their vehicles into powerful mechs for a limited time.
Aside from the single-player campaign, Anomaly 2 also offers a multiplayer mode where players can compete against each other in a tower-offense vs tower-defense mode.
Graphics and Sound
Anomaly 2 boasts stunning graphics with its detailed environments and impressive particle effects. The dynamic soundtrack also adds to the immersive experience, creating a sense of urgency and tension during battles.
Reception and Awards
Since its release, Anomaly 2 has received positive reviews from both critics and players. It has won several awards, including a nomination for “Best Mobile Strategy Game” at the 2013 Game Developers Choice Awards. The game’s unique gameplay and engaging storyline have been praised, along with its top-notch graphics and sound.
Conclusion
Anomaly 2 offers a refreshing take on the real-time strategy genre with its unique gameplay and engaging storyline. It provides players with a challenging and immersive experience that will keep them hooked from start to finish.
