Item Description

Gizmo has never looked tougher than he does with a bow drawn. Sunsoft's Gremlins 2: The New Batch puts the gentlest Mogwai in movie history in charge of clearing the gremlins out of the Clamp Centre, and turns the 1990 film sequel into an overhead action platformer that is far better than a movie tie-in has any need to be.

Five stages, each split into two or three sections, carry Gizmo from the building's genetics lab all the way to its main control center. He starts out with a genetically modified tomato that bounces like a rubber ball, then moves up through flaming matches and paper clips, each new weapon adding range and rate of fire, before graduating to a bow that fires five arrows at once and, finally, explosive fire arrows. Gremlins, spiders, bats and rats crowd the halls, traps punish careless steps, and Gizmo can take a few hits before he loses a life.

Between stretches of action, Gizmo visits a shop run by Mr. Wing, his original owner from the first film, who turns up from beyond the grave to sell extra lives, weapon upgrades, health potions, longer health bars and balloons that float Gizmo out of pits while making him briefly invincible. Mohawk, Gizmo's nastiest rival from the film, keeps coming back in new forms as the end-of-stage boss, the Electric Gremlin takes a turn in one stage, and the finale is a showdown with a mutated Mohawk in the control center. Sunsoft's sound team backs it all with the kind of punchy, memorable soundtrack the company was known for on the NES, though the film's own theme never appears.

It is a short game and not an especially punishing one, which makes it a satisfying afternoon on original hardware rather than an endurance test. Coming from the same Sunsoft that gave the NES Blaster Master and Batman, it has the polish to match, and retrospective reviewers rank it among the good licensed games on the console. If you love the movies' chaotic sense of humor, this is the Gremlins game that turns it into tight, colorful action.

Gizmo can equip a variety of weapons from a pencil to a toolbox to use against different Gremlins and other vermin such as spiders, bats and rats. There are also traps that hurt Gizmo. Gizmo can be hit by an enemy or trap multiple times before he loses a life.
