Amstrad Action
1st July 1991
Popeye 2
Ack-ack-ack-ack! Popeye is having a very bad day - his rather skinny girlfriend Olive Oyl has been kidnapped by Brutus, the brutish, black-hearted beast!
Gameplay
Popeye has to make his way through several scrolling platform-filled screens. Collect Wimpy's hamburgers, defuse bombs and tackle hazards galore.
Graphics And Sound
The graphics are very good indeed. Huge colourful sprites and bright, attractive backgrounds all help the look of the game. The opening music is a lush rendition of the Popeye anthem. Spot effects are sparse but effective.
Verdict
Overall 76%
Good fun but possibly just too difficult.
