Lost Kingdoms II
Encyclopedia
Lost Kingdoms II, known as in Japan, is a role-playing video game developed by From Software
and published by Activision
in North America and Europe. It is the sequel to Lost Kingdoms
. Lost Kingdoms II is a card-based action role-playing game
where battles are fought in real-time.
A notable interface addition is the ability to pay double the cost for any card in exchange for enhanced effect. Also, certain card combinations can be combined into a single, generally highly potent effect.
A new element is also introduced along with the original elements of fire, water, wood, earth and neutral. The new element, mechanical, is much like neutral as it has no weakness and strengths versus other elements. The only difference between the two is that mechanical and neutral have separate power levels, which the player can increase by using cards of the same element repeatedly, but lowering all other elements slightly and the opposite element even further. The main villain of the game is a user of the mechanical element.
