In Black and White 2, you'll reprise your role in the original classic - and try to spread your worship around the world. The discovery of moreadvanced weaponry has led to more warfare — this has caused destruction on the once-idyllic world. Now you must earn the respect and worship of the natives. How you choose to do that, whether through nurturing them or terrorizing them, is up to you. Create and control settlements that include housing, farming, and many other buildings like fountains and lush gardens (if youre Good) or stocks and guillotines (if youre Evil) Use multiple tools to help train and improve Creatures - using sticks, whips, and feathers, players can create their own unique tools
Will you be an evil or benevolent deity?
That's the choice you must make upon returning to a warring land in Black & White 2. Like its wildly successful predecessor, Black & White, the sequel is all about moral choices.
The land, however, has transformed itself. The inhabitants of this breathtaking 3D world have lost their innocence and developed new weapons and technology. As you enter this warring world, will you make tribes coexist peacefully; encouraging villages and towns to grow into sprawling metropolises, or prompt them to inflict their will upon others by, creating and commanding large armies that seek to dominate and conquer?
Creatures in the game have grown too. They can learn strategies, master new abilities and skills, lead armies into battle and be your ultimate unit. Black & White 2 includes other new elements, such as improved graphics and miracle effects such as rivers of fire and earthquakes that yield massive destruction.
Every choice you make will have an impact. Each action and inactions prompts obvious changes to buildings, flora and fauna, all morphing to reflect your personality.

- Better than the 1st one
- Everything in this game is very improved over the 1st one. The game is a ton of fun but doesn't have much lasting appeal. I found myself playing it for a couple of weeks then haven't touched it since (it's been about 3 years). More reviews
- Excellent game play
- I've been playing B&W for seveal years now and finally purchased the second, B&W 2. I've got to say that I'm impressed with the improvements in the game all around. The graphics and story have improved and keep me very interested in the game play. The game uses most of the same mechanics and principals of B&W… More reviews
- Oh look, Leader, you've earned tribute!
- I've thoroughly enjoyed this game since it first came out. And it can't be a bad game, if every time I buy it, someone steals it, right?!
The graphics are a huge improvement of B&W. The creatures aren't much brighter, but then, if they were, they'd be harder to train... The people are still super needy, and yes, they still… More reviews
- My favorite game
- Ok, after reading most of the reviews here, I am frankly disgusted by how I see people whining about it. The largest complaint, the boring tutorials, I found interesting. I never look at tutorials in any game I play, but I like the tutorial in B&W2, as it gives you free tribute. Also, I play Halo, Battlefield 2, and plenty of other fast-paced games. I still love this… More reviews
- Very fun and addicting
- This game starts out slow but once you get going you will find yourself spending hours and hours on it. It may be a bit confusing training your creature at first because some of the things it does is a mixture of good and evil and depending on how you want to be seen it can be hard to control.
Also it says you can be good… More reviews
