The events of Fable II take place 500 years after the events of Fable. The game begins with the user selecting a male or female character named Sparrow, who is only a youngster. After Lord Lucien murders Sparrow’s sister, the player’s goal becomes exacting revenge on him.
Fable II is an action role-playing game with sandbox gameplay. The game may be played cooperatively by two people over Xbox Live. The protagonist is controlled in the third person. Players can use short- and long-range weaponry, as well as magic spells, to assault. When adversaries are defeated, they leave behind experience spheres of various colors. The colors are determined by how the player killed them. After collecting a particular number of spheres of one color, the player can upgrade their heroes’ stats and magic spells. Sparrow is followed by a dog that detects hidden treasures and assists the player in battle by eliminating foes on the ground.
The game places a strong emphasis on interacting with NPC characters. Players can use gestures to influence NPCs, such as scaring or making them laugh. It is also possible to marry and have children with NPCs.
Another critical feature of Fable II is economics. For example, prices for equipment, books, potions, food, and furniture can fluctuate according to how well the player performs. Sparrows can earn money by making swords at a blacksmith or chopping wood in minor mini-games. Players can also buy every building they see in the game, rent it out (and profit from it), or live in it with their families.
