About the game
Get ready for frantic action in Vengeance: Roll & Fight – Episode 2! This real-time, roll-and-write game throws you right into the heat of battle, mimicking the intensity of the Vengeance universe's fights. Created by Dávid Turczi, Noralie Lubbers, and Gordon Calleja, it takes the essence of the original game's dice puzzles and transforms it into a dynamic experience where you build devastating combos, take down enemies, and aim for the highest score. It's an adrenaline-fueled fighting game with easy-to-grasp rules that still challenge you to master every move. Your objective? Infiltrate a gang den, fight your way through its rooms, defeat the final boss, and complete secondary objectives scattered throughout the stages. The gameplay is divided into three phases: planning, fighting, and montage. In the planning phase, you and other players roll and re-roll dice in real-time, trying to form the perfect combinations to activate abilities in the next stage. As you use dice, you replenish them from a common pool, all at lightning speed! Once the pool is depleted, the real fight begins. You use the dice you've set aside to execute your abilities, advancing through rooms full of enemies, crossing them off your list as you hit them. Finally, comes the recovery and enhancement phase, where you heal your character, unlock new abilities, and items to boost your journey towards vengeance. This Episode 2 is a standalone game, just like Episode 1, but with entirely new heroes, dens, bosses, and abilities. Combining both allows you to expand the game for up to 8 players!
