Oddlabs, the creator of the real-time strategy game Tribal Trouble, has announced the release of its browser based successor: Tribal Trouble 2. Travel back in time once again and set sail on new quests to familiar as well as foreign places all while building your own career as chieftain of your tribe. The cartoon-style game set in the wacky Viking age where pillaging and plundering were everyone’s favorite pastimes. You start off somewhere high up in the Cold North, in a hometown that consists of little more than a couple of sheds, a carpenter and a small row boat. From here it’s up to you to turn it into a bustling city and make your name feared in all of the realms – all the way down to the African tribes in the Deep South. Success won’t come by itself though: you need points to purchase new buildings and enhance the abilities of your Viking raiders, and points are won only on the battlefield.

Tribal Trouble 2 runs directly from all of the major browsers with the Sun Java plug-in installed. The game itself is free to play, but some features cost an amount of virtual currency that can either be purchased with real world currency or earned within the game itself.
