Popeye 2 is a fairly poor jump'n run featuring the popular comic hero with an affection for smoking green grass, for a thin woman and as an abnormal feature in this game - jumping - although this was role intended. Usually Popeye doesn't jump that much.
Ok, Popeye 2 is the standard jump'n run... mediocre graphics, PC speaker sound and boring gameplay. Let the hero himself have the last word: "I'm strong to the finish cos I eat me spinach."

I actually won the Popeye trilogy compilation on the C64 which was a nice surprise. As a kid of the 80s, I actually enjoyed the Popeye feature film starring the highly talented Late Robin Williams and I believe the old film set is still standing attracting tourists. Popeye had a bit of popularity back then, cartoons, spin offs and a bit of a memorable catchy tune when he eats his spinach. The reviews of the Popeye games weren't very favourable and at best had these as average games. I wouldn't have bought any of the games normally, so having won them, I got to experience these on the old beige box.
good game
