Bomb Jack is back It goes without saying realy, that Bomb Jock 2 is the sequel to the successful Bomb Jack. As before, the game presents your little leaping hero with a series of platforms inhabited by fierce enemies. The trick is to leap around the platforms collecting treasure and special bonuses without getting splattered; but in this case, you can fight your enemies with your little sword. There are 40 levels of this, but although the baddies become more fierce as the game goes on. with armoured flying knights replacing the initial lizards. I didn't find that the game became more interesting The Amstrad and Commodore versions are fairly similar apart from the zippier Commodore music. Only recommended for the very persistent.
