The game was a bit short (but they are thankfully adding more levels soon) and it was fun to play but it was a little too easy like the bosses weren’t very difficult. Also the level system shouldn’t have a max because I’m stuck on 50 and I’ve gained so much do but It won’t go any higher and leveling up or getting do is basically useless now and there’s no point in the challenges or anything. There was a couple of bugs I ran into like not being able to upgrade sometimes the button just wouldn’t work or the game crashing when I opened it. Overall I loved this game that’s why I gave it five stars. I played the first one a lot as a kid and this was so fun to remember and with the soundtrack and everything. One of the best things in this game is NO ADS!! Most mobile games these days are desperate for money but in this game THERE ISNT EVEN COSMETICS YOU CANT GET FOR FREE AND IT’S AMAZING!!!!! I’m so excited for the new levels even though it was a bit short and easy. Thanks Halfbrick and Apple Arcade for this 10/10 Sequel!!

Don’t get me wrong, this game isn’t bad by any means. It just doesn’t hold up as well as the original, there’s so many mechanics in the game that the tutorial takes forever to get through and overall it feels like the game overdid it with all the in-game mechanics. For example the new health bar system feels like it makes the game a lot easier than the first one and if you lose any of your health than you usually get it back within the next 20 or so seconds, It removes a lot of the intensity and rush that the first game did so well. They also locked the beloved endless mode until level 10 which isn’t a huge problem if you plan to play this game for a while but it takes about an hour to get to to that threshold. They also removed the slot machine you got to spin with tokens whenever you died and replaced the equipable power up that added a lot of options and gameplay variety from the first game and replaced it with “badges” which isn’t a horrible change but I feel like those were really good additions from the first game that should’ve made its way into this one. I get that they were trying to experiment with the game but they removed so many good features from the first that it doesn’t feel as enjoyable. Aside from that the game looks and feels pretty good but compared to the passion and love the first JPJ had it doesn’t feel the same.

I had a blast playing this, but I’ve gone through all the available levels and upgraded nearly everything to the max level in a mere 3 days. The endless mode is nice — but there’s going to be no point to it after all the upgrades are completed. What am I supposed to buy with my money, blueprints, and tokens? I suggest making the upgrades more expensive (this probably sounds awful to most people, but I think it’s needed for longevity), raising the level cap on upgrades (otherwise, why farm tokens?), and expanding the “arcade” options *significantly* (only 4 games to choose from isn’t fun when 3 are always available at any given time).Finally, none of the powerups/purchases from the main game make me any better at the mini games, and the obstacles seem so random that it’s hard to say I’m improving in any other way, or if the games even progressively get harder to begin with. For example, I “completed” the gravity race game very early on, which made me wonder why it had to end at all. Making me replay same game over and over for a handful of wires/screws/chipboards is the worst part about JJ2. Please add some other ways to upgrade badges, or again, add more arcade games so that it doesn’t seem like such a grind.

This game is the perfect sequel to the original and follows what the gaming scene was like when it came out. Back when JJ1 came out it was all about the high score, but with JJ2 it gives you a proper story with upgrades, progression, weapons to use while progressing, and loads of different game modes if you get bored playing the story somehow.The character interactions are just amazing and got a lot of laughs out of me on my first play-through. I just wish that there were more vehicles to get because I’m still upgrading everything else but have nothing to spend my blueprints on. I pray that new vehicles get added as it would be so fun as having the same 4 over an over just gets repetitive. In the second lab you can see Mr cuddles in the background as a fossil and it would be so cool to get him back.But overall this game is so fun and gives you so many different ways to play.
