Every genre from match-3 games to dungeon crawlers are lightly lampooned and poked fun of. One moment you could be platforming your way through the sewers and the next you are fighting an enemy Street Fighter-style (complete with Hadoukens). The future, meanwhile, takes on a glorious and wonderful looking 3D cel-shaded art style.Īs well as a more intriguing and extended story, Evoland 2 features gameplay that is constantly changing and shifting genre from its predominantly RPG setting. The past is portrayed through a retro appearance and soundtrack reminiscent of old 2D Legend of Zelda titles. The game presents an engaging and fairly complex plot that focuses on a party of characters as they are warped through time, with a devastating war between humans and demons as the backdrop. Upon playing Evoland 2, it’s almost immediately clear that Shiro Games have taken this criticism on board for the sequel. There were also concerns that its original concept of journeying through video game history had potential that was not fully realized. Evoland was well-received by critics for its innovative concept and references to video game history but faced criticism for its lack of variety and short length. As the game progressed, the setting evolved from a retro 2D landscape to one that was rendered in HD. Released in 2013, the first Evoland is a journey that retraced the history of one video game genre in particular – RPGs.
