IGN: Earthworm Jim 2 Review

So while Earthworm Jim 2 scores for being one of the wackiest, most nonsensical games ever created thanks to its absolutely ridiculous array of characters, locations and slightly disgusting imagery, it doesn’t manage to surpass its predecessor in any significant way in the end. Its over-reliance on specific, one-stage-only game design gimmicks make it feel like you’re never getting the chance to play the real game — and then, when you do, you get disappointed by the odd cuts and control troubles found there, too. This is still a decent effort overall, and one that is certainly still worth a look if you were a fan of the original.
