Orcs Must Die! 2: Fire and Water Booster Pack is the first expansion pack for the popular action-strategy game Orcs Must Die! 2. The booster pack adds three new levels, three new Endless Mode conversions, three new traps, two new elemental enemies, and a new “Trapless” skull award.
New Levels
The three new levels in the Fire and Water Booster Pack are all set in new environments. The first level, “The Molten Depths,” is a fiery cavern filled with lava and molten rock. The second level, “The Frozen Wastes,” is a icy wasteland with treacherous ice patches and howling winds. The third level, “The Waterworks,” is a flooded labyrinth with rushing water and deadly whirlpools.
New Endless Mode Conversions
The three new Endless Mode conversions in the Fire and Water Booster Pack are all based on the new levels. The first conversion, “Molten Depths Endless,” is a fiery gauntlet that will test your skills to the limit. The second conversion, “Frozen Wastes Endless,” is a icy marathon that will challenge your endurance. The third conversion, “Waterworks Endless,” is a watery nightmare that will put your reflexes to the test.
New Traps
The three new traps in the Fire and Water Booster Pack are all unique and powerful. The first trap, the Web Spinner, shoots out a web that can slow down and damage enemies. The second trap, the Floor Portal, can teleport enemies to a different location, making it perfect for setting up ambushes. The third trap, the Dart Spitter, shoots out a deadly spray of darts that can quickly take down even the toughest enemies.
New Elemental Enemies
The two new elemental enemies in the Fire and Water Booster Pack are both powerful and deadly. The first enemy, the Fire Orc, is a fierce warrior that can breathe fire and charge into battle. The second enemy, the Water Orc, is a sneaky assassin that can teleport and use water magic to attack from afar.
New “Trapless” Skull Award
The new “Trapless” skull award is a challenge for the most skilled Orcs Must Die! 2 players. To earn this award, you must complete a level without using any traps. This is a difficult challenge, but it is a great way to test your skills and earn bragging rights.
Overall
The Orcs Must Die! 2: Fire and Water Booster Pack is a great addition to the base game. The new levels, traps, enemies, and Endless Mode conversions all add new challenges and variety to the game. Whether you are a new player or a seasoned veteran, the Fire and Water Booster Pack is sure to provide you with hours of orc-slaying fun.
