Honestly, the hardest part of this game (aside from that hell pit you call an arena) is driving the car! Its so touchy! But, for anyone who is wise enough to check the comments before trying to attempt such a feat as driving, here are some tips I learned:
DONT HOLD DOWN THE ACCELERATION BUTTON! Unless you know your going to be going up a small or even large hill; DONT DO IT! The steering gets super touchy.
Also, the car functions as a normal car might: when going backwards right is left and left is right.
When steering, you only have to slightly tap the A or D button to go left or right, trying to hold down either button will cause you to spin out.
BONUS!:
You can run over monsters. when your in the car, It provides great cover from monsters who give physical attacks. However, it wont protect you from all of them
I have to be honest here:
I think I like Rogue Fable 2 better then all of the rogue fable games. What I really liked about the second one was the energy and health mushrooms. While this version of the game supplies a great challenge, I think(if you were to make another version) that adding back the mushrooms would be great!
