Critic Reviews
GameSpot
By Daniel StarkeyWarlock 2 is a strong sequel that deftly builds on the solid foundation of its predecessor. Unfortunately, not all of its ideas are fully realized.
The Escapist
By Greg TitoWarlock 2 offers a lot of options for a fantasy strategy fan, and the Exiled Mode is fun the first time, but there's something missing in the formula to make it a truly memorable game.
Rock, Paper, Shotgun
By Alec MeerWarlock 2 is a smart and appropriately chaotic strategy game which really feels as though it has an identity of its own, rather than being made up of borrowed parts (er, other than its own).
The Digital Fix
By Mark BrillWarlock 2: The Exiled is a solid war-focused 4X strategy game with fantastic presentation. For newcomers to the series, it's accessible but with a depth to the strategy that's going to take you a few playthroughs to master. To fans of the first game, whether it's worth buying depends upon how much you are looking for a new and unique way to play games in this genre. If the new Exiled mode sounds intriguing then the game has a lot to offer with the potential of user created campaigns to follow. If, however, you prefer the more traditional game mode then there's not a great deal new here to tempt you.
God is a Geek
By Mike StubbsyDespite offering very little in new ideas or revolutionary gameplay, Warlock II is a decent game. There are only a few things that drag it down such as the minor technical hiccups and the confusing story, but the solid gameplay and decent visuals just about salvage the experience. If you liked the first game or need something to scratch that Civilisation itch then this will make you very happy indeed – just don't say I didn't warn you about the giant turtles.
