Read Full Detailed Report - Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn

Baldur's Gate II is the sequel to the smash hit RPG Baldur's Gate, from BioWare and Interplay. The sequel is set a few months after the first game, where it was revealed that you are one of the last descendants of Bhaal, the god of murder and destruction. You and your friends have been kidnapped by a group of assassins and imprisoned in a mysterious lair, where you and your childhood friend Imoen are subject to brutal experiments at the hands of an ancient wizard intent on awakening the dark sides of your souls. Upon escaping, events set into motion an epic quest in search of him, in search of answers, and possibly in search of great power that lies dormant within you. The expansion pack, Thone of Bhaal, directly extends the plot to its ultimate conclusion, with you either destroying the essence of Bhaal forever, or embracing it and becoming Bhaal's successor.

Gameplay is similar to the original, but with lots of new ideas, including a greater emphasis on moral decision making (now a BioWare trademark), a more in-depth story, more sophisticated interaction with NPCs, and the ability to become the manager of a stronghold fitting of your class.
