Raven Software, 1998
In only 4 years after the first Heretic
game, Raven has completed the 'Serpent Rider' trilogy and returned
to the make a direct sequel to the first installment. But instead of
a dull remake of the first game, they turned it into a fast-paced 3rd
person action game.
Set years after the first game, the hero Corvus (indeed Latin for
raven) returns to his homeland only to find it's people have become
victim of a deadly plague. Well, not so much deadly for the diseased
as for their relatives, because the patients are turned into ravenous
flesh-eating zombies. As the only one healthy enough to save his
people Corvus must set out on a journey across the lands of Parthoris
to find a cure. Like any decent action vehicle, this story only
serves to go to exotic places and slaughter the inhabitants with all
kinds of colorful weapons.
The weapons are indeed colorful, a whole range of magical staves,
bows and spells can be used; all beautifully rendered with the Quake 2
engine. The characters are animated nicely, and the gameplay is
smooth, so smooth in fact the game is over far too quickly.

Tutorial
In the first part of the tutorial, every weapon and offensive spell except
for the Iron Doom spell can be acquired. The the morph ovum and ring of
repulsion defensive spells and a number of random shrines can also be
found. To get these items, you've got to get higher up in the first
chamber, e.g. by jumping on the barrels and from there onto the ledge.
Now you can use these to make your fight with the training chicken even
more unfair  .
The K'Chekrik Trial Pit
In this level there is also a room with lots of weapons and spells, but
to get there you have to cheat. Use the kiwi
cheat for no clipping and walk through the wall on the right of the arena.
