Heading to Thunder Island?

Shalnor Legends 2: Trials of Thunder is the creation of one Johnny Ostad, the same solo developer who was behind the 2018 release of Shalnor Legends: Sacred Legends. That’s a game that we loved, hyping the original release as ‘almost perfect’, coming with a real one more go appeal. 

It goes without saying then that we are excited to see Shalnor Legends 2: Trials of Thunder land on Xbox. It comes on the back of a previous Steam release, to run on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC, with Xbox Play Anywhere support. If you’re unaware, that means you can take the one copy of Shalnor Legends 2: Trials of Thunder and play it across Xbox and PC, moving your save game with you. 

Consider the price of £8.39 and Shalnor Legends 2: Trials of Thunder gets even more tempting. This is a game that tells the tale of Mogren, a young Orc who has landed on Thunder Island. This is a place which is ripe for exploration – full of dungeons, caves, puzzles and more. There are residents present too and they come with their own quests. Can you help Mogren help them?

Key features are rich

At the fore of Shalnor Legends 2: Trials of Thunder are five key pillars – Storytelling, Character, Dungeons, Questing and and Collecting. You can find out more about those in detail… 

  • STORYTELLING: The game focuses on “Humor and Fun” in its story and character dialogues, as well as many popular references. Throughout the island, the protagonist will encounter many characters, including deities. Additionally, there are numerous lore-books that add depth and explain the broader world beyond the island.
  • CHARACTER: Mogren is a resilient and fearless Orc. His journey through Thunder Island will introduce him to numerous challenges, and to overcome them, he must level up, learn skills, unlock new abilities, receive blessings, and eat the right food at the right time.
  • DUNGEONS: Each dungeon has its own theme and a set of unique puzzles. For example, in one of them, you have to transform into a specific creature and play the entire dungeon in that form. The side dungeons, also known as “Caves”, feature their own puzzles and encounters, providing players with a wide range of content variations.
  • QUESTING: The main Questline sends the player on a journey to discover all of Thunder Island, Along the way, Mogren will encounter many inhabitants who require his assistance with various tasks. Mogren will happily, and sometimes begrudgingly, aid these individuals and receive generous amounts of XP and quest rewards in return.
  • COLLECTING: The game also features a Collect-a-thon aspect, with cosmetic hats that add style and a sense of fashion to the character. The OST can be listened to in-game, but first the individual soundtracks must be found. And last but not least, there are the “Crystal Clams”, which I will not spoil here.
