Some might be good at taking out towers from a distance, while some are better at towers that are right next to them, and still others serve more as a shield to protect the other vehicles from damage. There are a few different vehicles which can be added to your army, and each one has its own strengths and weaknesses. One of the other things that makes the game replayable are the different units that can be bought or upgraded. Either way, if you want a good laugh, make sure you turn up your volume when the various characters are talking to hear all their goofy goodness. To be honest, the voice acting is so bad that I am not sure if it was done intentionally, in order to add some humor into the game. It mostly consists of cliched phrases that are only made worse by the awful voice acting. And speaking of cheesy, the game’s dialogue is the absolute worst. The story is sort of cheesy, and is simply there in order to somewhat tie the different levels together. Like in the first Anomaly game, the main story revolves around aliens that have come to earth, and humans that are trying to get rid of them. While the multiplayer mode was not so easy to access, the single-player campaign is always available to play. As of right now, the multiplayer mode will not be factored into the review, but it will be updated when the mode becomes playable. Hopefully, more people will pick up a copy of Anomaly 2 in the near future to make multiplayer more feasible. On at least five separate occasions, I waited in the multiplayer lobby for over 15 minutes, with no luck finding a single opponent. However, so few people have Anomaly 2 that trying to get set up with a random opponent is simply not possible. The multiplayer mode can only be played with people online - there are no local co-op options.

The game’s multiplayer mode actually looks like a blast, but, unfortunately, it is virtually unplayable. Here, players can either take on a defensive role and build towers in an effort to protect their base, or players can go with the traditional Anomaly route and go on the offensive side, sending in mobs to destroy those annoying towers.

The biggest change, and the one that 11 Bit Studios put the most emphasis on, is the game’s multiplayer mode.
