Thea 2: The Shattering
In the dark lands inspired by Slavic myth, life is a struggle for survival against ever increasing odds, be it natural or malevolent. Can you lead your flock to prosperity in this innovative blend of 4X strategy, RPG and card game? The player takes on a role of a deity from the Slavic mythology-inspired pantheon and as such, controls the fate of a small flock of believers struggling for survival. This goal can be achieved in many ways, from diplomacy to war, from exploring to conquering, but any playstyle will surely lead to completely unique adventures thanks to the procedurally generated environments. Rich options, from crafting to town-building system, as well as the co-op multiplayer gameplay, make Thea 2 an ideal choice for tactically minded players, who are up for a challenge.

Great game if you take the time to learn the small mechanics. Definitely not something you figure out in the first few attempts. I'd recommend not starting your base immediately and take time to build up your squad. I will say this game has not really gotten DLC or updates since it released. Good game in the series, but no updates knocks it a little.

It's an odd mixture of 4X survival game. Graphics so so, readability can be a bit difficult and there is a lot of hidden mechanics and time consuming unlocks, but the gameplay is so fun that once you start understanding how the game works you don't mind playing it to unlock more and more.
I'm a bit late to writing a review so I will keep this review short. If you like Slavic vibes, 4x, survival, crafting and combat that is sort of deck builder based - I think you are in for a good time here.
I think the game is a lot of fun so it's easy recommend if you are into 4x games. Be sure to check out videos and screenshots of the game because the graphics are outdated, but I don't mind that personally.

I'll give review because game is worth it - it's a really good game with completely unique gameplay. I mean, I played it for 200+ hours, and I just decided to reinstall it and play more - go buy it, it's a solid one

I like the lore and the quest system really taught me a lot of slavic folklore.

One of the few games that still can give you a feeling of immersion in a fantasy storyline with survival strategy and decision making mechanics! like it quite a bit!

First I was pretty sceptical because MuHa Games changed the combat system compared to Thea 1 but after some hours I got into the new combat system and I love it.
Play Thea 2 for almost 300 hours in single- and coop-matches and I love the basebuilding mechanics, crafting, researching and character progression. Would love to see a new Thea game soon ;)

It is difficulty to get into this game because a lot is going on and some is confusing. But after about 10-20 hours of learning the mechanics and trying stuff out, I started to like it a lot. So, just take your time and proceed slowly.
