You are a child of the dread Queen of the mighty empire of Haven. Alas, your life of happy luxury has been stripped from you. The Queen, your mother, is desperately ill, so you have been forced to travel to the savage Rokaj. It is a poor and brutal land of warriors, constantly prone to rebellion.
You find yourself in the middle of a vicious power struggle, between your masters back home and the raiders and assassins of the wilderness. A rebellion is brewing. If you can’t prove yourself and master the wild Ro, it will be a bloody disaster. Can you take control of your Empire’s lands? And what will you do with them once you have it?
Explore a vast nation full of cities, forts, and dungeons. Fight clever, carefully designed turn-based battles. Deal with misbehaving vassals with bribery, diplomacy, or violence. Build new forts and customize them, choosing among upgrades that give your adventurers powerful bonuses. Experience with other Queen's Wish games is not necessary to enjoy Queen's Wish 2.
Enjoy a new adventure from Spiderweb Software, now celebrating 28 years of making fine indie fantasy role-playing goodness.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Played both games, now we cant wait for the release of part 3, we just hope it wont take too long. Its a nice games overall, definitely an improvement from the first game. Although we really didnt like the fact that they added a level cap fixed at 23. Pretty low if you ask us, hope the programmer will raise it to at least 30 for the next game.
Dont be fooled by the apparent simplicity. This is the work of a master game designer. The world is expertly crafted – comparable to reading a great fantasy novel. We recommend playing QW1 first. This sequel is a bit darker, and your decisions are tougher.
If you like RPGs with grid-based strategic combat & engaging stories, you cant do better than this! Spiderweb did just the right set of simplifications to make it fun to play on an iphone- for example, treasure items are instantly converted to gold, freeing you from much tedious inventory management.
Spiderweb Softwares games arent for everyone. If you are looking for long cut-scenes, great graphics, pay-for-upgrades, you will be greatly disappointed. But if you want tactical play, tweaking characters, choices that matter to what happens to you, then this their games are for you. Ive played a lot of Spiderwebs games (both on iPad and Steam) and Queens Wish 2 we think has become our favorite. We like how building the forts helps your characters, the story, and the choices. We wasnt as big a fan of the first Queens Wish it seemed to need some smoothening out. We think they did that with QW2. Ive really enjoyed it. Well worth the money if you want a story-driven, tactical, old-school game.
This is yet another stellar example from the team at Spiderweb Software . No monetizations, no skins, no glossy pretentious slick graphical feats here. Just a compelling storyline and lore and in depth character and world/base building with some resource management on the side. The world is immersive and atmospheric. One can easily spend a couple hours merely exploring the protagonist immediate environs BEFORE setting off into the greater expanse of this world. The games learning curve is NOT for the faint (or impatient) of heart: no cool down timers or XP boosts et al here. Each point spent on each skill set must be done with foresight and careful consideration. Risks must be calculated. All in all- Just a good ole fashion CRPG Master Class. Bravo team, highly recommended.
Dont get us wrong, we LOVE spiderweb software and have been playing their games since Exile. That said Im finding QW2 hard to play because of how jerky the graphics are when you move. We dont remember this being an issue with the first QW game, and Im finding it nauseating to be honest. We wish movement was smoother, Id rather scroll around manually then have the choppy moving mechanic.
Crashes repeatedly. Hangs up when looking at inventory. Only got as far as second Instructional room.
