The witchaven sequel delivers 15 levels in an improved but rather short form. The ending provides a premise for a sequel that unfortunately was never realized due to the closure of the creators at the time. New creatures and battles to be carried out, but with similar flaws to the first one in its delivery to steam.

The PINNACLE of Entertainment Software

ITS HERO TIME ...AGAIN

Such a guilty pleasure! Such a clunky, clumsy, forgettable 90s farce! My favorite thing about this beloved nostalgic nightmare of mine is the sound effects. They will always deliver to my ears, especially the coughing death and the murmuring floating-Demon-Old-Hag rumblings. So glad to find it on Steam!
This unfortunate attempt at a high-fantasy-melee-first-person-Doom-clone has the distinction of being released too early and being over-matched by Quake and Duke Nukem. In a strange way this game was a way I could make "Dungeons and Dragons" cool to so many of my more "popular" friends back in mid-adolescence.
Discovering Witch Haven 2 in Electronics Boutique at Baybrook Mall back in the day was like finding Conan the Barbarian in the discount rack at a local Stop'n Go. This Game was 2nd tier back in the day and remains the bastard-child-Doom-wannabe of the Dungeons and Dragons variety with a touch of Robert E. Howard and Arnold Schwarzenegger. The horned helmets, the bizarre "Old Hag" animated mini-bosses, the bloody and graphic traps you could fall in. Don't bother with the Bow and Arrow, go for the two-handed sword whenever you can, because the physics SUCK!
The gory sound effects are some of my favs in any post-Doom FPS. This game is a relic, a time capsule into an age of desperate software developers trying to replicate the success of those guys in Texas....

Chug healing & magical potions, and hack & slash (...and hack & slash, and hack & slash...) your way down corridors, across scaffolds, through windows, and into the lava-filled heart of Hell in 'Witchhaven II' -- an overall decent magical retro fantasy melee FPS.

An unsung Build3D refugee, this title is a straight port with no way to modernize controls like mouselook -- that I could figure out -- so, caveat emptor.
It's sprite-based, but never really takes advantage of what you could do with Build. The levels seem more like a series of pods, instead of any cohesive structure -- and rolling between arenas gets a bit stale, especially after you've dispatched everyone.

Probably a fun buy if all of the above is your bag.

Can't believe this finally got a steam release! I used to play these two games endlessly when I was younger. Nostalgia overload!

Way more difficult than the first game. I had the biggest difficulties in the first map and getting used to the new enemies, died a few times to find the needed power-ups. There are not many levels and this feels like an expansion pack to the first game with tougher enemies. Play only if you thought the first game was ok.

A fun game where anything weird that happens it's 50/50 whether it's a bug or intentional. Weapons will miss. Menu lag. Dead ends on maps. Unbalanced. Glitches. Practically invisible death pits. For some reason a fatal arrow deathtrap was avoided with a fire resistance potion. Still, the entire design is positively retro and fun if you don't take it seriously.

Witchaven 1 was a wee bit better overall but this time you can have super weapons and humans have replaced a lot of the monsters.

You get more spells, more potions, fight bigger, badder enemies, and get the better weapons faster. It's a lot more action packed than the previous, with generally better level design, although it's way longer despite being 10 levels shorter (25 vs 15). I think it's very much worth it.
