Wrestling Spirit 2 Demo

Stars constantly rise and fall in the world of professional wrestling, either due to the high injury count, or due to the fact that the public practically chooses who gets to be popular and who vanishes into obscurity. Thus, regardless of how well executed your moves are, you must first please the crowd, before making a name for yourself as a skilled wrestler.

Wrestling Spirit 2 is a game that gives a taste of what it is like to be part of this universe, by allowing you to start a career as a wrestler and make your way to the top. Along the way, you are forced to fight in obscure competitions and spark the interest of better agents, in order to be invited to more prestigious events. Obviously, the bigger the names, the greater the pay you receive and more popular you become.

But, since you literally have to fight your way there, you must first hone your skills and win very competition you enter, as well as make the matches interesting for the public, using complicated moves and various other showmanship gimmicks. If you are doing the right moves, the public starts cheering for you, which is always a good sign, even if that doesn't necessarily mean you are about to win.

The game uses a text-based system to simulate the fights, which means that you get to read what happens into the right and that's about it. The action you undertake can be decided by simply clicking on them in the list of available moves, which, although may not sound like it, does get pretty exciting once you over the fact that all you see is a description of what actually happens in the ring.

On the other hand, each wrestling move is represented by a picture, so that you can get an idea about how it would look if it were performed in front of you. The two fighters take turns to inflict pain on each other, although it isn't a true turn-based system, because your turn ends whenever the opponent successfully blocks or avoids your attack and sends you on the defensive instead.

In the end, Wrestling Spirit 2 improves a lot on the previous title and provides you with enough game modes and suspense to keep you playing for quite some time. The multitude of styles and moves means that you can always replay the game with different characters and experience new things.
