Hoglands is a single-player base defense game in 2D. It requires players to fend off hordes of violent pigs that wish to overthrow a peaceful society. Alongside the ability to craft powerful weapons, the dynamic nature of the combat should make this game appeal to those who enjoy progressive challenges.

Some of the survival aspects associated with Hoglands can be compared to other platforms, such as Stranded: Alien Dawn. In addition, the hand-drawn graphics offer a slightly cartoonish element that should provide a bit of humor during the gameplay.

A noble boar?

The premise of Hoglands is actually quite interesting. Players will take on the role of a "noble boar" that is tasked with protecting his tribe from masses of enraged pigs. It seems as if the pigs have been infected by some type of plague which the user must eventually eradicate.

Be afraid of the dark

Raids will occur during the overnight hours, so the player will need to stay vigilant. This also signifies that she or she must gather resources throughout the day when it is relatively safe.

More than side-scrolling combat

There are numerous scenarios that players will have to deal with, including making sacrifices to the gods, killing vampires, building strong fortifications, and recruiting fellow survivors. That means Hogland should provide hours of entertainment.

A one-of-a-kind game

While the medieval city-building nature of this game can be compared to other platforms, including Farthest Frontier, an in-depth storyline complemented by numerous defensive challenges provide an action-packed overall experience. Funny and cute graphics offer an additional degree of uniqueness.
