Item Description
Master Higgins is back in his grass skirt and baseball cap, and this time he has a whole herd of dinosaurs at his side. Tina has been carried off by the Evil Witch Doctor's followers, and the rescue mission sprawls across eight islands crawling with monsters, each one charted on a map screen that lets you see the journey ahead.
Hudson Soft's first Adventure Island was an adaptation of Westone's arcade hit Wonder Boy, but this sequel, developed by Now Production, is an original from top to bottom, and its best idea is the dinosaur team. Crack open the right egg and a playing-card suit summons a ride: the blue Camptosaurus swings its tail and keeps its footing on ice, the red one breathes fire and can cross lava, the Pteranodon soars over hazards and drops stones, and the Elasmosaurus turns water stages from a slog into a sprint. A new inventory system lets you stockpile these friends and your stone hammers, then decide before each stage which one to bring, so a tough level becomes a question of strategy as well as reflexes.
The rest is the series' signature formula, sharpened. Higgins sprints, leaps and hurls hammers through jungles, caves and volcanic slopes, snatching fruit to keep his energy from running dry, and grabbing a second hammer upgrades his throw to fireballs. It is a fast, tough and cheerful platformer, and reviewers singled out the dinosaur buddies as the feature that made it stand apart.
Adventure Island II is the entry where the series found its own identity, the point where Master Higgins stopped being a Wonder Boy stand-in and started building a run of sequels on the NES and Super NES. If you enjoyed the first game's breakneck momentum but wished it gave you more control over how to tackle each stage, this is the one to play.
