About Shining Force II
Shining Force II is a tactical role-playing game developed by Sonic! Software Planning and published by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive in the mid-1990s.
In Shining Force II, you guide a growing army through a fantasy world filled with ancient evils and political intrigue. Between battles, you'll explore towns, speak with villagers, and traverse a world map to find your next objective. Combat unfolds on a grid where you strategically move your characters, attack enemies, and cast spells. Success depends on positioning your units effectively, considering their attack range and defensive capabilities.
The strength of Shining Force II lies in its diverse cast of characters, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. You'll enlist humans, elves, birdmen, and even some reformed monsters into your force. A significant aspect of progression involves character promotion; once a unit reaches a certain level, you can choose a new, more advanced class for them, often unlocking new abilities or enhancing their stats, such as transforming a standard soldier into a formidable Paladin or a nimble archer into a sharpshooting Ranger. The narrative guides you through encounters with powerful antagonists seeking to plunge the world into ruin.
Your journey will take you through varied environments, from sprawling cities and mystical forests to treacherous dungeons, all while you build your force and confront the growing threat to the realm.
