In This Survival Strategy, Your Choices and Knowledge Determine Your Fate
Six Ages 2: Lights Going Out is an interesting hybrid of strategy, adventure and RPG. The game debuts on the market today.
Later today, we will see the launch of Six Ages 2: Lights Going Out, a game which combines elements of turn-based strategy, adventure and RPG. The game is a direct sequel to Six Ages: Ride Like the Wind.
- The title will be released on PC (the game will be available for purchase on Steam and GOG) and iOS mobile devices (where pre-orders can already be placed). It will be unlocked on these platforms in some time, most likely around 3 p.m. CET.
- We don't know exactly how much Six Ages 2: Lights Going Out will cost on PC. In App Store the game has been priced at $9.99. It is likely that PC players will have to pay a bit more.
Successor to King of Dragon Pass
Six Ages 2: Lights Going Out is a game set in the same universe as the 1999's King of Dragon Pass. We take on the role of a tribal chieftain, who governs a small community in the declining mythical world of Glorantha.
In the game we will have to make many difficult choices, including those related to the economy, and the consequences of some of them will only become apparent decades later. It will be up to us how we fulfill the whims of the gods, spirits and members of the clan community, and whether we survive with the chosen strategy.
The game features tons of text and "more than 600 interactive scenes." As Six Ages 2: Lights Going Out features a quick-save option, and the individual episodes are not long, it is an ideal title for short sessions when we don't have much time to play.
If you have played the previous installment of the series, i.e. Six Ages: Ride Like the Wind, then you will be able to continue your adventure in Lights Going Out. However, nothing will prevent you from starting the game from scratch.
It is worth noting that Six Ages: Ride Like the Wind is a game appreciated by the players. On Steam, out of almost 400 reviews, as many as 80% are positive. Let's hope that Six Ages 2: Lights Going Out will turn out to be an equally good game.
