Since 12 November 2015, Fable II is available on Xbox One through Backward Compatibility.Īnnounced in 2006, the game takes place once again in Fable's setting of Albion, though 500 years after the final defeat of Jack under the Hero of Oakvale. It was released in North America on Tuesday, Octoand in the United Kingdom on Friday, 24th October, 2008. It is the sequel of Fable and Fable: The Lost Chapters. I'd like to recommend it as suitable for all the family, but just remember that it does contain some rather immature and uninspired dialogue.Fable II was developed by Lionhead Studios and published by Microsoft Game Studios. Experienced players may find it to be a bit too easy, but it's certainly entertaining enough to provide light relief between tougher games and offers a reasonable challenge to players new to the genre. On the other hand, I still enjoyed the adventuring components, but then, I do like this style of graphic adventure. The dialogue and the ending were, for me, disappointing, as was the lack of any real depth to the story. Overall, I thought that Fable had a lot of potential that was not quite fulfilled. Gordon Aplin echos up my feelings about the game in his review at the Quandary: " The plot is typical fantasy mumbo-jumbo: you control Quickthorpe, who is tasked with finding the four fabled jewels to restore his land to former peace. Fable is a decent point-and-click adventure from Telstar that unfortunately got very little notice due to lack of fanfare, limited distribution, and the general slump in adventure game genre.
