  • Summary: TY the Tasmanian Tiger 2 picks up where the original popular action platform game left off. The evil Boss Cass is up to his old tricks. After breaking out of Currawong Jail, this feathered villain has re-instated himself as the dictatorial ruler of Cassopolis, a high tech island home to lizards and birds. Now Cass has hatched a plan to take over the world with an army of Uber Reptiles. It's up to our boomerang-wielding hero, TY, and his newly formed team of Burramudgee Bush Rescue mates to stop Cass! Set in the Outback of Australia, TY the Tasmanian Tiger 2 offers platform gamers a huge open environment to explore by foot and vehicle. This time around TY is equipped with an arsenal of 21 upgradeable boomerangs, including the Lasharang, Kaboomarang, and Megarang. In addition, the game will feature five different "Mech units" to help TY fight large numbers of enemies and complete mini-missions. With these "Mech units" TY has the ability to swim under lava; shoot lasers, Blastorangs, water or fire; and much more. TY is also challenged to complete driving and flying missions featuring combat and puzzle solving, with access to helicopters, submarines, and off-road trucks. Unlockable cart racing mini-games allow gamers to challenge their friends in seven unique cart racing levels. [Electronic Arts]… Expand

    The frustration many hit during punishing sections in this sort of game is never allowed to develop. All the skill moves still require the right touch; the designers simply opened the window of what constitutes the "right" touch just enough to let everyone in (with some practice).

    It is rare to find anything that can hold a five year olds attention for more then 20 minutes; well, Ty2 repeated the first installment's rapture. The game is actually too hard for her, but she kept trying till she could get no farther, then it became mine to play.

    If you don't complete it far too quickly, you may become bored of the missions or the story.
