Disney's Duck Tales 2 is a platform video game developed and published by Capcom and is a sequel to the original DuckTales based on the classic Disney animated series of the same name. It was released on the Nintendo Entertainment System in early 1993.
Like its predecessor, DuckTales 2 is non-linear and allows the player to choose and complete all levels in any particular order. The controls are the same as the previous game, albeit the cane jump is easier to perform. Scrooge can now use his cane to interact with various objects, such as pulling levers, firing cannons and using springy flowers to cross large gaps. Other new mechanics include hooks that Scrooge can hang from and rafts that can move Scrooge across water.
Unlike the first game, the player can return to a level that has already been completed to collect more money and items. In addition, upgrades for Scrooge's cane can be obtained from Gyro Gearloose to grant the player access to new and hidden areas in each level. When a level is completed, the player can visit a store to buy recovery items, extra lives, and other such items using any money the player has collected. In addition to the unique treasures, each stage has a piece of the map that is hidden in a treasure chest. Locating all of the map pieces is not required to complete the game, but collecting all of them opens up an optional sixth stage in which the lost treasure of McDuck can be found. As the game opens, Huey runs to his uncle Scrooge McDuck with a torn piece of paper, which is actually a piece of a treasure map drawn by Fergus McDuck. Inspired to discover the hidden treasure left by Fergus, Scrooge starts an expedition to find the missing pieces, unaware that his rival Flintheart Glomgold is also after the lost treasure of McDuck. Classic Duck Tales Capers!. And the Verdict is...
If it's more of the same you want, DuckTales 2 defo delivers. Capcom had a knack of introducing eye-opening 8-bit cart's and then essentially recasting the game play with a few minor tweaks in sequel after sequel. The only drawback is, like the first installment, it's too short, as you enjoy the game so much, like the first, it leaves you begging for more!. It's recommended without hesitation!. Great game! |
