Azkend 2 - The World Beneath

There is a big, sudden jump in difficulty, going from mildly amusing to completely unplayable. Also, if you don't enjoy one of the game modes, there is no way to skip.

While the first game was real gem with fluid fast gameplay and powerful powerups, this one is just rubbish. Annoying stretched “story”, all those effects that make the game feel painfully slow and overall impression - this game is perfectly ruined. Stay clear, this kind of over-engineering and overthinking is too common and after a while gives you just depression. This game is bad, really, really bad. Buy the first Azkend and be happy.

I was so disappointed with this app that I deleted it from my iPhone and decided to write my first review in the hope that it will save someone three bucks. This app wasn't created by the original devolopers. From the look and feel, I'm guessing the new owners weren't provided the code, but instead reverse-engineered the game based on the appearance alone. I have a hard time seeing the difference is some of the pieces on the small iPhone screen. They aren't as discreet as in the original game and there are more different ones. The game makes too many "automated" moves - falling/exploding pieces, etc., and that distracts from game play. After one play I left it alone for a few days, because of my initial bad impression. The second time around I was really fed up with it and decided it had to go. This is the only game I've completely deleted because I was unsatisfied with it.

I really enjoyed the first Azkend. However, the sequel is 10x better. Good job!

First game was great! This one is better!
