The greatest ”giant rocks rolling through historical/artistic ages" tower defense game is back with Rock of Ages 2: Bigger & Boulder. Just like the title says, Bigger &Boulder cranks up the surrealism and gameplay to be, well...
BIGGER AND BOULDER. With an emphasis on the chaotic new multiplayer for up to four rock-rollers, new time periods, and improved graphics,
physics, and destructibility powered by Unreal Engine 4, players will need to be ready for some intense rocking and rolling.

WATCH THE TRAILER!!

ACE Team's Trademark Quirkiness
The Monty Python-esque humor is turned up to 11, as players literally rock and roll through the ages. Humorous animated vignettes will also make a return in full force, so famous historical figures beware! Just like in the original game,
ACE Team has created various levels inspired by the greatest art periods in history. Players will gaze upon exquisite art from the Egyptians, Late Gothic era, Early Renaissance, and Surrealist movement,
as they carve a path of destruction with their rolling rocks of doom!

An Emphasis On Multiplayer
A little friendly competition never hurt anyone, so that's why ACE Team decided to improve the multiplayer feature of the game.
Play with a friend in local split-screen or up to four players online in a 2v2 match to the death, all with the ability to customize banners and colors for your units and more.
Oh, and did we mention that opposing tracks can now intersect each other?

Historically Inaccurate Bosses
Take on works of art come to life in boss battles featuring the likes of The Thinker and the Great Sphinx, leading up to the all-powerful final boss in a showdown like you'd never imagine!

Improved Physics and Destructible Environments
With upgraded physics and even more things to be cracked, crushed, flattened, and slammed, rolling various rocks down a hill has never been a more pleasant experience!

Utter Chaos
With the addition of brand new defensive units and unique boulders with special traits, chaos reigns supreme so be sure not to take each turn for granite.

Awesome! I saw Major Nelson tweeting about a discount on Xbox One for this game? Any idea if the PS4 version should have the same pricing? It is 14,99 right now.

I'll probably buy it either way when I get home tonight.

I remember buying Rock of Ages on XB360, and never getting round to actually playing it!

Might check out the demo.......

Lovely demo, I absolutely LOVE the cutscenes, it's quite funny and well done.
I'm not that much into the gameplay, while fun, so I'll wait for a sale but it's definitely part of my wishlist now.

ACE Team are really cool. They always do these contests on Steam giving away keys for thier games. I actually won the first Rock of Ages because I was one of the winners of their joke contest. That was awesome. The sequel looks good. I'm waiting for Zenoclash 3.

I feel bad that I had to put this game on the backburner for a while; seeing this thread not even crack one page made my heart sink a little.

Still, the game is every bit as goofy and gorgeous as the original. I'm loving all the Pythonesque cutscenes, and the art is just stupidly pretty; levels like the Dali-inspired desert map are just staggering.
