DESCRIPTION OF BLACK AND WHITE 2. Black and White 2 is a strategy game released in 2005 by Electronic Arts. The game was released for PC (Windows) and Macintosh. The second part of the game in which we play as a god. You can choose whether you will. This is a page dedicated to the Black & White series which is made up of Black & White 1, released in 2001 with it's expansion Creatures of the Isles and the sequel Black & White 2 from 2005 with the Battle of the Gods expansion. The original Black & White, although now missing Black & White Online as the original host for internet play, still has a niche that passionately doesn't forget how.

Black & White 2 is a video gamedeveloped by Lionhead Studios and published by Electronic Arts released in October 2005. It is the sequel to 2001's Black & White. A Mac OS X port was released in January 2009,^[1] and released for download via the Mac App Store in November 2014.^[2] The game blends real-time strategy and god game elements.

Gameplay[edit]

The player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help the villagers who invoked them. The player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player is physically represented in the world as an avatar-like creature, which takes the form of a giant anthropomorphicape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. The creature can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona^{[clarification needed]}. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

Black & White 2 features a more conventional heads-up display (HUD) system than its predecessor. Rather than the experimental HUD-less gameplay seen in the original game, Black & White 2 features HUD notifications that inform players of their creature's state of mind, the effects of their actions on their creature, the status of villages, etc. The user interface is almost button-less. The player sees little else on the screen but the world, the player's hand, and toolbars which the player can make disappear.

The only way the player can directly interact with this world is through the player's hand, which can be used to pick up people, trees, food, and influence^{[clarification needed]} the ground. The player can also cast miracles for a certain amount of 'Prayer Power' (in essence, 'Mana'), which comes from the player's believers.

To do things such as cast miracles, the player moves the hand in such a way to make a symbol on the ground, referred to as a gesture. This activates the miracle, and if the player has enough Prayer Power, it appears in the player's hand ready to cast. Miracles have a variety of different uses. There are six ordinary miracles: fire, lightning, water, shield, heal, and meteor, (each of which can be thrown or poured), and four epic wonders^{[clarification needed]}: siren, hurricane, earthquake, and volcano.

Black & White 2 can be played in three ways: Good, Evil, or combination of the two. Evil involves the use of fear, torture, conquest and destruction using armies along with the creation of building such as a pit of torture. Good involves benevolence, more positive city building, and looking after the populace, particularly defending it from attacks. Both of these require ore and wood, of which there is a limited amount.

The player's tribe is the Greeks. Other tribes include Egypt, Norse, Aztec, and Japanese.

As in Black & White, players can create disciples to do the player's job in certain areas of the game while the player tends to other business. For example, if the player needs to lead an invasion, they can set villagers, and even their creature to farm for them while they lead an invasion.

Creatures[edit]

The player can choose between several creatures, including the ape, lion, wolf, cow and tiger, although the tiger is not available in the base game. The player's creature can do most things the player can do, such as cast miracles. Since the player trains the creature, their personality can become whatever the player makes of it.

Unlike Black & White, in which the creature had to be taught miracles through repetition, Black & White 2 allows the player to 'buy' creature miracles with 'Tribute' currency. Along with this, Black & White 2 allows the player to revisit everything they've taught their creature in order to alter and fine-tune it at any time, while the original Black & White only allowed changes to be made as the creature repeated an action.

Plot[edit]

The player comes upon a scene of a Greek city being devastated by a huge Aztec army after being summoned from a 'pure prayer'. After the player saves a certain number of people, their people are transported to a new land with a handful of refugee worshipers, the player must re-establish a power base^{[clarification needed]} from which to eventually defeat the Aztec empire. To do so, the player must conquer the Norse, the Japanese and the Aztecs, either by peace or war. Throughout the game there is a theme of 'The prophecy', which states that a tribe will be destroyed by the mightiest power in the world but will receive a god who will lead them to glory and dominance of the world.

Reception[edit]

The game received 'generally favorable reviews' according to video game review aggregatorMetacritic.^[3]

Black & White 2 received a 'Silver' sales award from the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association (ELSPA),^[15] indicating sales of at least 100,000 copies in the United Kingdom.^[16]

Expansion pack[edit]

An expansion pack, Black & White 2: Battle of the Gods, was released in April 2006. It includes a new creature, new lands, miracles, enemies, challenges and the tiger from the Black & White 2 Special Edition. The premise involves the player's return to Eden, where they discover that the Aztecs have raised their own evil deity which must be confronted head-on for control of the land. The player may choose how they will challenge this new god, either by countering the evil deity's actions with good deeds, or attempting to defeat through evil actions.

How many games let you fling crap at people’s houses?

Black & White wowed many people with its whimsical take on the old ‘god game’ genre. Unfortunately, after a month of gameplay, its flaws became apparent and most of the novelty of the title faded. Needless to say, Black & White sold well, and a sequel was inevitable. While on the surface, this game may appear merely as a graphical upgrade to the original title, Black & White 2 actually improves gameplay tremendously.

Black & White 2 places you in the role of a god. Summoned by a lost tribe of people in need, the Greeks, it is your task to help rebuild them to their former glory. The path you take is completely up to you. You can be a benevolent and merciful god, working with the people to build a city that makes them happy. On that path, you help them with daily tasks such as gathering grain and wood, and you protect them from the dangers out the world. On the flipside, you can be an evil, ruthless and vengeful god causing general pain and suffering. As a new addition this time around, you can build a war machine to crush the other tribes.

Being a god is no easy task, and Black & White 2 provides aid in the form of a creature. In the original title, training your creature was a trial and error affair. There was a creature cave that provided stats, but there was no way to actually see the lessons your creature learned. Also, you could change his behavior on the fly by slapping or petting him in response to an action he performed, but you had to actually wait for him to engage in that action before you could reward or punish him (causing you to spend a lot of time following your creature around, hoping he’ll do something specific).

Many Black & White players, by the end of the game, had creatures that were usually psychopaths – sometimes performing a role like helping to build a home or gather resources with ease, but also flipping out and flinging crap on homes and villagers. The guesswork involved has thankfully been removed, as there is now a collapsible HUD/Interface that reveals all.

This new interface is greatly improved, although it takes more than a little time to get a hand of the mouse pointer. Still, all information is easily accessible by hitting a function key, whether it be for buying new structures, checking on your disciple count (people you assign to a specific task such as breeding or farming), or getting a better handle on your creature. For example, by hitting F2, you can now bring up a creature-learning menu. Any action your creature attempted appears on a list, making it an easy task to click on a lesson to immediately reward or punish your creature to reinforce or deter that behavior.

At its core, Black & White 2 is more of an RTS than the original, though the RTS part is completely optional. Players now have the ability to create a war machine to take over the land. You get to your pick generic classes such as swordsmen (melee units), archers (ranged units), and even siege weapons, the last of which are needed to tear down the imposing walls that surround cities in the later island stages. Each unit class has its own strengths and weaknesses that make sense.

Take archers, for example. From a distance, they can rain down death on swordsmen and can even take out a creature, but without protection from swordsmen or another creature, they are worthless in an up-close and personal fight. While your creature can become the strongest military unit in the game, he isn’t immortal, and just like in the original, he’s prone to scarring and trauma from war.

There are two ways you can win over the hearts and minds of the various cultures in Black & White 2. Warmongering is the evil, more entertaining way to play the game. If you walk down the path of evil, raising armies and leveling cities isn’t a problem. Your city will crack and burn and take on a dark tinge, wildlife will twist and distort, and even your people will begin to hunch over and look sinister. On the other side of the coin is winning via impressiveness. A benevolent god has the option to solely focus on building his or her city. Placement is key, and a lot of enjoyment can be found in laying down roads, houses, and industrial structures in a way that promotes happiness among your subjects.

Whichever path you choose to follow – a benevolent god bringing sunshine and butterflies or a vengeful one striking fear, fire and brimstone on people, there’s plenty of variety, fun and hectic gameplay to be found in Black & White 2. In the end, it’s a marked improvement and a worthy successor to an already great game.
