    Are you a fan of retro games? RPGs? Dungeons and dragons? Did you like Ultima?

    Styled after the early Ultima games from Richard Garriott, Lowerlander will make your Android smartphone feel like a Commodore 64. That's a good thing! Plus, Lowlander's new sibling packs the same one-handed portrait-style gameplay that sensible people prefer! Lowerlander is retro rpg gaming at its finest.

    TouchArcade had this to say about the first one’s shameless imitation of Ultima II: “4.5 stars ... Lowlander is an interesting case, because it's not often that a game paying direct homage to a classic is actually better than said classic.” Unquestionably undeserved, but that’s high praise!

    Honestly, I can't really say that Lowlander 2 is much better than the first game. It's bigger, longer, and more confident, to be sure. But where Lord British was spurred on by his competition to make the sequel to Ultima 2 a real game changer, Flat Black seems to have been content with making Lowlander 2 the very best Lowlander it could be. This certainly isn't a worse game than the original either, mind you. It's of very similar quality all-around, which means Lowlander 2 should be of interest to anyone looking for a great RPG to play on their mobile device. Like its predecessor it's deliberately trying to evoke an RPG of the early 80s, but if you can deal with that, Lowlander 2 is a great way to spend your money and your time.

    Those looking for a walk down memory lane will love what’s on offer here. It’s a simple game in the purest sense, easily allowing you to dip in or out, and even juggle a sandwich alongside it thanks to its well designed one handed controls.
