Risen 2: Dark Waters

This is an action role-playing game in which players assume the role of a hero tasked with retrieving a powerful weapon. As players explore tropical environments, they use pistols and swords to engage in melee-style combat with pirates and wild creatures (e.g., monkeys, sea monsters). Battles are highlighted by sword-clanging sounds, slow-motion effects, cries of pain, and brief splashes of blood. Players also have the ability to attack pedestrians, leaving them unconscious. During the course of the game, alcoholic beverages (e.g., rum, grog, bloody marys) can be purchased and consumed to improve players' health; one sequence allows players to engage in a drinking contest with another character, resulting in blurred screen effects and slurred speech (e.g., “Wass good drinkin'. Now iss time for some shootin'.”). The words “f**k,” “sh*t,” and “c*ck” can be heard in the dialogue.
