Totem Tribe II: Jotun

Totem Tribe II: Jotun is an interesting 4X MMO strategy game whose goal is to provide players with an enjoyable, diverse experience by drawing inspiration from a wide range of genres, such as RTS, role-playing, adventure, puzzle and hidden object.

The game is currently in the early Alpha stage, and public access has recently been opened, mainly for testing purposes. It looks very promising, but, as expected, it offers limited content at present.

While, at its core, Totem Tribe II: Jotun is a MMO strategy game, it includes numerous elements from other genres, making the gameplay feel fresh even though the mechanics are not exactly groundbreaking.

You can explore a sizable world map, collect resources, construct buildings and recruit units, but also complete quests, solve puzzles and engage in some more unusual side-activities.

However, the game also allows you to create a personalized hero whose attributes can be upgraded, and there will a lot of gear for you to choose from. Conversations are non-linear, as their outcome will vary based on your answers.

The action takes place in a persistent world that supports thousands of players at once, and you can choose to focus on solo play or, if you wish, interact with others. The PVP system is no at all restrictive, and alliances can be created between players.

As far monetization goes, you will be able to purchase various items that speed up various activities and enable you to complete your objectives more quickly. Aside from a few cosmetic items, all features will be available freely, but those who spend some money in the Cash Shop will have a competitive edge given the same amount of play time.

Totem Tribe II: Jotun is still far from being complete, but you are encouraged to try it out and report any issues you encounter to the development team. However, bear in mind that there is no guarantee that your progress will not be wiped during the testing phase.

On the whole, this title certainly has a lot of potential, and it is the type of game that can keep you entertained for tens, if not hundreds of hours. There aren’t too many things to do on Teya at present, but it is worth keeping an eye out for future developments.
