   Otogi 2 official website

    Otogi 2 is a fairly simple, yet extremely fun game for XBox.   

 
    The game plays basically as a button masher, meaning that there isn't a ton of strategy or mastery of complex moves needed to do well when playing it, but despite this, it is incredibly fun.  The game works basically with one button being used for jumping, one as a weak attack, one for a strong attack, and one for your magical attack, and the controls are incredibly simple.  One neat feature in the game is that almost everything in the game is destructible.  Fighting a group of enemies in a small room and having trouble?  Not a problem, simply attack the walls and they will come crumbling down, moving the battle into the adjacent room, or outside depending on which wall you knocked down.

    Otogi 2 has among the best graphics available in any game for the XBox console.  The world is incredibly detailed and the game has a lot of special effects, such as lighting, effects used when magical spells are cast, and more that look incredible.  There is slowdown occasionally due to the large amount of detail and effects in the game, but it is nothing that really took away from the gameplay experience in my opinion.

    The sound in Otogi 2 is a little above average.  The music is outstanding, but the sound effects can be somewhat repetitive and the voice acting is fairly average.  None of this takes away from the gameplay experience, 

    

    Otogi 2 is a very fun game worth buying for XBox.  The game plays very simply, but it is a lot of fun, and that's the most important thing in a videogame.  If you want a very good action game with a lot of things to destroy, Otogi 2 is definitely the game for you!
