Lizard invaders have returned to the lands of the Rus, and players take the role of one of the heroes fighting to drive them back. The story unfolds across a campaign of missions set in villages, settlements and lizard-corrupted lands.
Combat centers on battling groups of enemies with melee attacks and character-specific abilities. Players can also use cannons and ride dinosaurs; some missions include boss fights and wave-based battles.
Play alone with AI-controlled companions or team up in co-op. Completing story missions unlocks more skills, and players can choose abilities to equip before battles.
Players who enjoy the game often highlight its deliberately absurd humor and Russian meme references, along with the fun of battling alongside friends. Reviews also praise the soundtrack, character abilities and improvements in presentation over the first game. Others criticize the clunky combat, bugs and rough voice acting, and some find the campaign short or the solo experience uneven.
