The storyline is engaging, and commanding an elephant to tromp through units and trample people is pretty hard to beat.

Unlike the original Kessen, KII is far more accessible and the fantasy element gives the whole show a far more epic feel in the style of TV’s Mahabarat (okay, it’s a Hindu show, but you get the idea).

One of my favorite games of the console, it took me what it seemed months to beat it, but it was probably a couple of weeks. I discovered my love for military strategy thanks to this game. What can I say, i love everything about it.

Das ist das beste Spiel der Reihe. gameplay, Story sind wunderbar. Leider ein bisschen zu kurz aber sonst gut

More about style than substance. Nevertheless, the style excels, and there's still enough substance to give strategy gamers something worthwhile.

The gameplay is ironclad; however, a few presentation problems hold the title back. [Dec 2001, p.250]

If you’re a serious strategy aficionado who expects more than to be seduced by lush eye candy, you’ll lament the restricted control system and the over-emphasis on storyline at the expense of intricate gameplay.

Inconsistent voice acting and poor plot development. [Dec 2001, p.168]

Despite its initial luster, it becomes tedious rather quickly.

Improves on the first game in every way, although things like magic can seem a little over-the-top initially.

Game is really cool, kind of unrealistic special moves like meteor showers, but very enjoyable for TK fans
