ActRaiser 2 is a side-scrolling platform game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System developed by Quintet and published by Enix in 1993. The game is a sequel to the original ActRaiser, but the storyline is not directly connected to its predecessor. Otherwise, the given story draws concepts from the famous religious epics Paradise Lost and the Divine Comedy. Unlike the original game, which alternately combined platform game sequences and god game sequences, ActRaiser 2 is only a platform game.
Gameplay for ActRaiser 2 consists primarily of side-scrolling platform action, similar to the “Professional!”/”Action” mode from the original game, while completely removing the city building simulation. The player, assuming the role of the “Master” (still referred to as “God” in the Japanese version), controls a floating palace to inspect the people of the world below. After hearing their plight, the Master descends to the world below to fight the monsters and rid the land of evil.
Like the original, each area contains two “acts”; the first act of an area consists of monsters spawned from a lesser demon named after an unfavorable condition, while the second act consists of monsters spawned from the primary evil, named after one of the seven deadly sins, with heightened challenge and peril. The game begins with the Master battling with Tanzra (still “Satan” in the Japanese version). In this game, a backstory is given as to why Tanzra hates the Master so vehemently.
Tanzra, who was once the Master’s servant, led a rebellion against him, but lost and was banished from Heaven. Ripped and torn, the slain body of Tanzra fell to the underworld. Feeding on the intense hatred each held for the Master, Tanzra’s seven deadly sins and their minions combined their power to raise the spirit of their mighty leader. Tanzra, now vowing revenge for his defeat by the Master, unleashed these demons upon the world. The player in this game assumes the role of the Master, aided by his angelic associates, known as Crystallis.
