Ishar 2: Messengers of Doom
Ishar 2 was released in 1993 for Amiga, Atari ST and DOS. In Ishar 2 the player takes on the role of Zubaran, the new ruler of Ishar. He receives a vision that tells him to defeat the sorcerer Shandar. It is also possible to import a group of characters from the first Ishar. The game now takes place on an archipelago, with each island bearing the name of one of Jarel's companions. Each island has a different type of landscape: Irvan's island is covered with swamps, Akeer's and Otbar's islands are underground complexes, Zach's island is covered by a city, Jon's island is mountainous and Thorm's island has treetop-like passages in a forest. This game has a combat system that is more ergonomic than in the first Ishar, and a day-night cycle where the stores are closed at night and the nightclub during the day. Also, there is a bank (it is up to the players what to do with it). When you save the game, no more gold is taken from the player.
