How you choose to do that, whether through nurturing them or terrorizing them, is up to you.Create and control settlements that include housing, farming, and many other buildings like fountains and lush gardens (if youre Good) or stocks and guillotines (if youre Evil) Use multiple tools to help train and improve Creatures - using sticks, whips, and feathers, players can create their own unique tools

Amazon.com Product Description:


Will you be an evil or benevolent deity?



That's the choice you must make upon returning to a warring land in Black & White 2. Like its wildly successful predecessor, Black & White, the sequel is all about moral choices.



The land, however, has transformed itself. The inhabitants of this breathtaking 3D world have lost their innocence and developed new weapons and technology. As you enter this warring world, will you make tribes coexist peacefully; encouraging villages and towns to grow into sprawling metropolises, or prompt them to inflict their will upon others by, creating and commanding large armies that seek to dominate and conquer?



Creatures in the game have grown too. They can learn strategies, master new abilities and skills, lead armies into battle and be your ultimate unit. Black & White 2 includes other new elements, such as improved graphics and miracle effects such as rivers of fire and earthquakes that yield massive destruction.



Every choice you make will have an impact. Each action and inactions prompts obvious changes to buildings, flora and fauna, all morphing to reflect your personality.





Features:
  • Wage massive wars, sieges and battles or use your skill and power to keep the peace
  • Discover and use new Epic Miracles, including the ground-ripping Earthquake and volcanoes, which cause rivers of lava
  • Choose and customize the Creature that's right for you from a selection, including old favorites such as the Ape, Cow, and Lion
  • Research and create new forms of weaponry, from swords to bows to siege machines
  • Create and control settlements that include housing, farming, and many other buildings like fountains and lush gardens (if you're Good) or spikes and torture pits (if you're Evil)

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Black and White 2, Good or Evil?
I believe that Black and White 2 was a great game, however if you were looking for alot of the same gameplay from the original you will be a little disappointed. The plays like it did with original black and white engine, with a few key differences, such as building your town. in the original black and white your villigers were very easy to take care of, while I was playing this game however i found that more than half my time was spent having to micromanage my city instead of conquering people and ...

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Good vs Evil depends on city building?
It comes down to this-will you conquer your foes through being kind or cruel...well, not exactly.

The first Black and White game focused very much on creature development impressing neighbors, and magical spells.You really did feel like you had a lot of power, though the micromanagement and lack on information left you feeling less than omnipotent.

In Black and White 2, game designers help you get more information about your settlements and of your opponents.Additionally, ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Better than the 1st one
Everything in this game is very improved over the 1st one. The game is a ton of fun but doesn't have much lasting appeal. I found myself playing it for a couple of weeks then haven't touched it since (it's been about 3 years).

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent game play
I've been playing B&W for seveal years now and finally purchased the second, B&W 2.I've got to say that I'm impressed with the improvements in the game all around.The graphics and story have improved and keep me very interested in the game play.The game uses most of the same mechanics and principals of B&W but has changed enough to continue making playing more of a challenge.I give this game a 9 on a scale from 1 - 10.Highly recommended, especially if you enjoy the original.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Oh look, Leader, you've earned tribute!
I've thoroughly enjoyed this game since it first came out. And it can't be a bad game, if every time I buy it, someone steals it, right?!

The graphics are a huge improvement of B&W. The creatures aren't much brighter, but then, if they were, they'd be harder to train... The people are still super needy, and yes, they still whine for more housing, but then rapidly make too many more babies as soon as you build more houses, so that's still the same.

On the whole, it's just a prettier, ... Read More
