Those Games 2

YEAH! YOU WANT “THOSE GAMES,” RIGHT? SO HERE YOU GO! NOW, LET’S SEE YOU CLEAR THEM! 2 is the sequel to YEAH! YOU WANT “THOSE GAMES,” RIGHT? SO HERE YOU GO! NOW, LET’S SEE YOU CLEAR THEM!. I will just refer to them going forward as Those Games 2 and Those Games 1. This series takes those ubiquitous fake mobile games ads and turns the fake games portrayed into actual mini-games. I reviewed Those Games 1 and the review did pretty well. So I’m reviewing the sequel, which brings four new games and one returning one. Like the last review, I will review each of the games.

Those Games 2: Knock-Back Shooter

Knock-Back Shooter is a game where you have to bounced a bullet off the walls and hit your target, without hitting yourself. You have a certain number of shots. The less you use, the better your score. I found it fine for what it is, but there are better games in Those Games 2.

Draw & Guard

Draw and Guard is where you draw a line to save yourself from bats. The hook is that the line becomes a physical object and can be pushed by bats. The goal is to survive ten seconds. I found this the easiest in Those Games 2 because the answer is often self-evident based on the stage layout, as seen above.

Those Games 2: Spellbinding Scroll

Those Games 2

This game is the one usually as your character shooting things, like zombies or monsters. Here you’re a women shooting arrows to enchant men. Each arrow has a value and you must shoot enough arrows to fill the heart. If you get hit, you lose whatever the value of the heart was. Hit 0 points, game over. Things get more complicated later with gates that affect your point values, and negative arrows flying at you. I think this is the best game in Those Games 2, I loved it.

Pull the Pin 2

This is the returning game, this time, instead of surviving monsters, you are delivering embers to a an oven, or water to a glass. It was great in the last game, and still great here in Those Games 2, and puts up a real challenge at times.

Number Dungeon

Those Games 2

This is a twist on the tower mini-game from last game. This time, you’re in a maze and have to attack the monsters in a certain order to beat the final boss. It is good is all I can really say about it. I played this the least, but that doesn’t mean it is bad.

Rest of Those Games 2

Like the last game, Those Games 2 has missions to beat, both daily and general. You will get coins from puzzles and missions. These are used in the “Gotcha” machine, which gives you a nameplate and/or title. There’s also word-wide challenge mode with a leader board for added longevity. Overall, its a good mini-game collection, but I don’t think its a Must Play, because outside the games, little has changed. This gets a Recommended with an eight back-end score.

Overall: Those Games 2 is a mini-game collection of fake games from mobile game ads. Pretty good like Those Games 1!

Verdict: Recommended

Aery Calm Horizon is a “greatest hits” for the franchise, but its still largely as boring and ugly as the rest. May have some charm for some.
