Tumblebugs 2 Review
Its been argued the best way to create a successful casual game sequel is to deliver much of what made its predecessor worthy of a follow-up, yet introduce new features to justify the purchase. Tumblebugs 2, from Australia's Wildfire Studios, concentrates too much on the former, delivering very much the same experience as the first game despite a couple of new additions. This sequel to one of the best-selling 2005 titles is indeed a fun diversion, but it'll likely feel like a case of deja vu for many players.
First Look - Tumblebugs 2
Tumble is back to defend her colored beetle friends from black bugs in the sequel to the Zuma-style action puzzler Tumblebugs. This time around, Tumble can call upon frog, butterfly and rhino beetle friends for help and use 11 power-ups including the new homing bug and gap bug. Another new feature is Sprite Rounds, where players can collect gold rings to win big points and extra lives.
Featuring 90 levels, 30 unique backrounds, 2 levels of difficulty and 4 gameplay modes (adventure, puzzle, sprite and frenzy), Tumblebugs 2 will also reveal what became of the Black Bug King, and who is behind the black bug invasion. Expect it to launch later this month. Click READ MORE to check out screenshots.
