Breaking up the action are a handful of mini-games initiated by one of the tier 3 abilities. Control is handled using the ZL/ZR triggers to open one of two menus capable of creating new attackers, resource gatherers or defensive measures. Each unit has its strengths and weaknesses which can create memorable stalemates on the battlefield when properly countered. These range from simple spear throwing goblins to hulking axe-wielding viking highlanders.

Each engagement introduces the player to a new type of character or resource collecting variant. The campaign, spread across 25 battles with multiple surprise encounters, serves as a glorified tutorial while also delivering a unique and humour filled story.

Each faction has their own unique classes of combatants and special abilities including summoning help from otherworldly deities. S&S is a side-scrolling Real Time Strategy game pitting players in a tug of war battle with one of the three factions: Vikings, Persians, or Demons. Swords and Soldiers II: Shawarmageddon (S&S), from developer and publisher Ronimo Games, does just that as players must battle for the almighty Shawarma.

Many fight for love, others for honour still some fight for Shawarma.
