Two Worlds II: Call of the Tenebrae is the second big extension to Two Worlds II, a third-person action RPG game by the Polish studio Reality Pump. The Call of the Tenebrae expansion appeared six years after the premiere of the original and accompanied the release of the refreshed version of Two Worlds II, so it could offer improved graphics. Adventure focuses on a completely new enemy - the sinister race of rat-like humanoids that serve even more formidable creatures seeking to destroy the world of Antaloor. The player's task is to gather allies, both among old acquaintances and new characters, and contain the danger. The Call of the Tenebrae story campaign provides several hours of fun. It takes place in new, diverse locations, where items and skills are previously unavailable, and more enemies to defeat. Apart from the extensive single-player content, the extension does not introduce any news to the multiplayer mode.

OK, why? Seriously, why? WHY?! Why did they make this? Long story short, what we have here is just a stand-alone copy of Call of the Tenebrae DLC.

I would venture a word with this one though, it really should have spent a bit more time in the development oven before releasing as it's loaded with weird bugs that do impact gameplay. Call of the Tenebrae is mostly playable as a standalone release but note it has no tutorial so those...

^ Disables annoying blur and other filters that make the game look ungraciously. After this everything should be clear.
As for the review, first of all if you've never played any of Two Worlds games you definitely need to start with the first one. It still remains to be the best in the series and the only one that is a good game....
It pains me to give negative review to a game from TW series, but I have no other option here. I played first TW game and I loved it. It had some minor issues but overall I had great time. TW 2 and Pirates DLC looked like solid games too. To play this standalone DLC I used my old save with character that had completed main game and Pirates DLC. I imported...
This DLC is kinda too short. I guess its okay for an modern DLC, but Pirates of the Flying Fortress had set a bar there: it had more content and then there's a question of quality of that content. Call of the Tenebrae for that matter... mostly sucks? Side quests are annoying (who likes collecting myriad of different plants) and plain stupid (instead...
