It's now 1995, the year which some weird old bad foresaw the end of the world - and it looks as though she could be right! Gangs of vicious hoodlums are terrorising the public, so Joe has been drafted in to sort 'em out.

Disposing of your prey requires a swift jump-kick to the face, picking up the points bonuses left behind. Also found walking around are spies, who are wired up to explosive devices. Tackling these opens up one of the sub-games included, which consist of sorting out a number of strange symbols into their correct order.

Joe Blade II is a bit of a letdown after the first game, play being a bit too similar to the prequel. That said, there are big graphical improvements this time around, with sprites and backdrops looking almost like cartoons. If you enjoyed Joe Blade, and are looking for more of the same, get your hands on this toute-de-suite. And everyone else, you get it too.

Perhaps too similar to the prequel, Joe Blade II nevertheless contains all the addictive qualities of the previous game with generally better graphics to boot.
