Bootleg Game of the Week 076: Earthworm Jim 2 (FC)

 I never imagined this game would make its way to the Famicom. Of course it wouldn't! The game is another bootleg of the bunch. It's not as fun as the original but you know what? It's good enough. You gotta gave them credit, at least they got the title screen right. I'm not sure about the rest though....

The music of this game sucks! The sounds suck! It doesn't help that the game is hard to look at which we will go over in the next segment. This is just awful...

The graphics are just as bad as the sound of the game. Ok, they got the title screen right but Earthworm Jim looks like he is on his last legs. The enemies are also flashing a lot at times which makes them quite annoying to get rid of. It's just all broken...

The gameplay leaves a lot to wish for in this game. Unless you like pain, don't get into this one. As many bootleg platformers, this one suffers just like them. It's like they decided to use the same painful platformer ethics in every game to make it harder to beat, therefore more frustrating but not easy enough to get through and ask for a refund. I think this quite covers it...

Would you really replay something that might or might not turn you blind? Yeah, this is painful! I think a combination of crappy music and bad color scheme really piss me off. Either way, it's not worth a replay ever!

The game leaves a lot on the table and doesn't offer enough to be one to be in your collection unless you're a crazy Earthwormjim fan which I will understand completely.  Till next week!
