There are a lot of bright vivid colours, lots of colourful blood and gore. The game would be suited on your dusty old Mega Drive, or Super Nintendo. It feels like you have been time warped back to the 90’s.
AARRGGHHH it’s Nidhogg GraphicsĪs I said earlier, Nidhogg 2 has been done in a 16bit graphic style. This is down to the simple fact of watching your opponent squeal and mutter under their breath as you impale them over and over. This is the part of the game I don’t seem to fully appreciate, you fight to the end to win the battle to get eaten? I am struggling to see the point, surely the loser should get eaten?
When you reach the final screen, you get declared the winner before getting eaten by a big mutated worm, this worm with bad dentures is called Nidhogg. But if all else fails just throw your weapon at them and hope for the best. You can get up-close and personal with the dagger which can always be fun…. If you prefer there is a Bow and Arrow to be used also for ranged attacks, although personally I hated this weapon with a passion. There is a Broad Sword with high or low slashing attacks. You can use a Fencing Sword and run your opponent through with high, mid or low attacks. You then kill your opponent anyway possible, you can use your feet and kick them to the ground before stamping all over them. There are seven screens and you both begin on the middle screen. Nidhogg 2 plays like a game of tug of war. Finally, there is Online Multiplayer where you can play ranked matches or unranked matches. This can be the classic one on one, or you can set up a tournament for three to eight players. There is Local Multiplayer which is a good old-fashioned on the couch war with your friends. You have Arcade Mode, which is yourself versus the computer. Nidhogg 2 gameplay is split into three different modes. It’s a hard game to describe but I’ll do my very best. Which is now 16bit instead of 8bit like the original. Nidhogg 2 is a quirky hacking, slashing, stabbing fencing game.
