It has been over 3 years since the last time we spoke with Arcen Games and its founder, Chris Park. In that amount of time, many developers would have released another game, maybe two. Arcen has produced and released no less than three games and a ton of content for A.I. War; and there's more on the way.

We had a chance to get a solid co-op session in with Arcen Games' A Valley Without Wind 2. The sequel is a total revamp of the original, but still retains that genre-breaking feel. The closest thing that it resembles is the old school SNES action/strategy hybrid, Act Raiser.
Part strategy, part platformer, part RPG, part board game. A Valley Without Wind 2 takes a lot of different elements and throws them together in a single release. The crazy thing is it works, and it works really well. A massive improvement over the original and a superb game in its own right, A Valley Without Wind 2 is a deep and rewarding strategy game that's going to collect groups of extremely devoted fans.
