Rick Dangerous 2

He's back in a flash! Rick Dangerous, square-jawed hunk and all-round hero is back after a little holiday to foil yet more evil plans courtesy of the Fat Man. This time he's got together with some xenomorph marauders and is threatening to take over the world!

Rick has give levels of platform frolics to negotiate, that take him from Hyde Park in London to the Fat Man's lair in deepest Barf (that's where all the aliens have come from, by the way).

When Rob first caught sight of the ST version he was mightily impressed, dishing out a colossal 90%. Now, all the other versions have arrived, and they're just as good. Featuring brilliant visuals, decent sound and extremely addictive gameplay, Rick Dangerous 2 is something of an essential purchase.

Rick Dangerous 2

Loadsa colour and hyper-addictive action make this a must-buy! Go get it!

Amstrad

Just as good as the 16-bit game, with a near-decent soundtrack thrown in for good measure!

Amiga

A classic sequel that more than improves on the original. Rick Dangerous 2 is £24.99 well spent.

C64

Graphics are a bit blocky, but all the gameplay remains intact. Put this on your shopping list or feel very stupid indeed.
