5.0 out of 5 stars Croc2
Well, this game is much better than the first Croc. The graphics are great and croc moves around quickly and smoothly, while in the first game he is quite slow when both these games are compared. In this version of Croc, Croc is equipped with a triple jump, accesories such as- green, purple, and blue gummi rolls, binoculars-which are completely useless-they don't...

3.0 out of 5 stars not bad
Good for the children and family to play, although the way the camera view is set up is very confusing. If you can get over that the levels are richly textured, also "cartoony" and non-violent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Croc2, July 24, 2000

This review is from: Croc 2 (CD-ROM)
Well, this game is much better than the first Croc. The graphics are great and croc moves around quickly and smoothly, while in the first game he is quite slow when both these games are compared. In this version of Croc, Croc is equipped with a triple jump, accesories such as- green, purple, and blue gummi rolls, binoculars-which are completely useless-they don't magnify anything, and mechanical gobbos. This game is loaded with many different levels, which are much more inventive than the first Croc game. Croc gets to ride a giant snowball, race with dantinis in boats and cars, fly an airplane and a glider, and drive a very annoying railroad cart. Gobbos also speak to Croc in this game. The controls take some time to get used to, and the camera sometimes lags behind or shifts into an awkward position, which "coincidentally" occurs only when Croc is trying to beat the boss. But,overall, this game is very good, cute, and non-violent!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Sequel That's Better For Once!, March 21, 2000
This review is from: Croc 2 (CD-ROM)
Usually sequals are dumb or short of plot. Croc 2 is one of the few that isn't. It's got a billion new features! (Okay, maybe less than 50.) Lots of levels, lots of laughs, lots of animations and great graphics, and overall, lots of fun! You can steer a car, snowball, boat, chase after a train, shoot cannonballs, throw dynamite, and lots more! Along the way to finding Croc's parents, you'll defeat bosses, help gobbos, and buy stuff! You can do almost anything with this game! It was 14 and one half months late, but it's worth the wait! Whether you liked or hated Croc, you'll love this game! :-)

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Game For Lovers of Action and Good Plots!, February 10, 2001
This review is from: Croc 2 (CD-ROM)
This game was incredible! The graphics are flawless, the colors are magnificent, and the gameplay is amazing! The story goes that Croc's old nemesis, Baron Dante, has been brought back by a group of his loyal Dantinis. The only witness to this, the Inventor Gobbo, is spotted and kidnapped. But, he manages to get a note to Croc. Upon reading it, Croc is literally flung to the first of the game's four gameplay islands. The first, Sailor Island, is an island covered with challenges ranging from unbelievably simple to sort of simple.(Also, in every challenge, there are five Color Crystals you can collect. Doing this gives you an opportunity to find and get a Golden Gobbo. If you get EVERY Golden Gobbo from EVERY challenge, the Golden Gobbo door opens, and you have a chance at getting a Puzzle Piece. Get the Puzzle Piece from every Island, and if you beat the game, you're on your way to the Secret Islands!)An unbelievably simple challenge would be outjumping a Gobbo on a trampoline to earn 100 crystals(just use your triple jump!), and a sort of simple challenge would be defeating an intruding octopus at the jetty. The boss here is a pirate, who gives you a simple challenge.

The next island is the Snow Island(okay, I'm paraphrasing). This is an island where every season is Winter, and the best afternoon activity is a snowball fight. The challenges here range from sort of simple to medium in difficulty. A sort of simple challenge would be finding snowman parts for a Gobbo, and a medium challenge would be riding the head of a snowman all the way to a snowman-building contest. The boss, a puffer fish, gives you an almost medium challenge... I almost forgot Roger Red Ant! HE is a very annoying ant who has strapped dynamite to your friendly neighborhood Gobbos. You must save them, complete Roger's challenges, and finally, defeat Roger. This LONG challenge earns a medium rating.

The third island, the Caveman Island, is populated by Cavegobbos. The challenges here are actually not much harder than the Snow Island challenges, believe it or not. A sort of simple(but VERY long) challenge is putting out a jungle fire and rescuing 50 Gobbos, and a medium challenge would be defeating the boss, an angry dinosaur. You DO discover one of the Inventor's creations(a go-kart)here, though.

The last island, the Inca Island, is riddled with challenges going from medium to hard. A medium challenge would be outburping a Gobbo for 100 crystals, and a hard challenge would be defeating Baron Dante from the Inventor's airplane. And, unfortunately, you must face Baron Dante AGAIN. You rescue the Inventor, who has a plan to defeat Baron Dante once and for all. He plans to set up a portal using five Color Crystals to send Baron Dante into another dimension. But, he needs YOU to distract Baron Dante while he's setting it up! This battle earns the rating of very hard, because you also have to make sure the Inventor doesn't get carried off by Rock Dantinis! If you win, you get a fantastic ending. If you don't, well, let's just say that Baron Dante is back to stay! Like I said earlier, this is a great game, and I recommend it to anyone with a computer and a 3D Card!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but rather frustrating, March 17, 2005

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Croc 2 (CD-ROM)
Definately a good game, but rather difficult to handle the controls. Croc has a tendency to move in directions that you had no intention or desire to send him, consiquently killing himself, and making you so absolutely frustrated that you are rather glad to see him fall to a fiery death. Other than that, I absolutely love the game, Croc is just as cute, and the Dantinies are just as evil. If not more so.
The levels are a bit more plush and scenic than the first one, I guess that coming from the advancement and upgrade of technology. And the interaction with the Gobbo's leaves nothing to be desired.If you like listening to little furballs squeak at you constantly.
Other than that, this game is fun, just a bit more difficult than the first, but otherwise a good way to spend leftover time.

4.0 out of 5 stars challenging but fun, June 28, 2005
By 
Wu (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Croc 2 (CD-ROM)
I was introduced to Croc 2 by a very good friend of mine and has never regret playing it ever since. There are app. 4 worlds(I haven't beaten them all) to defeat and they are all made unique to fit into their enviroment. Though the games might get a little bit boring because you cannot beat one level or just one specific boss, it is a great something-to-do when you are bored. You have all those extra time on your hands and can try out your hand-eye cordination with Croc.

The graphics and music are great. Croc and the gobbos are made not intricately, as expected, but made sloppily. Which gives it a cute look to everything. (Even the Dantins). The music is also probably one of the reasons I love the game so much. It's made to fit into each world that Croc goes through. Or situation for that matter.

The reason that this game got four was because of the controls. Croc might unexpectedly run into a Dantini or pit of buring lava when you are not careful about where he goes. The default controls are terrible and will take forever to master. The second set of controls, is much better. I do not know WHY the creators of Croc 2 did not make the other one it's default.

Overall, I loved this game, and still do. It's definately worth most of your money, if not all.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun and challenging, February 11, 2001
This review is from: Croc 2 (CD-ROM)
Quite innocent fun can be expected from this game. The little characters are adorable and the game has many different levels within levels. It can get frustrating at times, but I guess all games are like that. It has a cartoonish flavor and has so much variety in the levels and missions, but it can get boring when you find yourself stuck in one level for too long.

5.0 out of 5 stars solid sequel, December 30, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Croc 2 (CD-ROM)
I own both croc and croc 2. I would have to say that croc 2 is the better. However, this game is quite difficult and can be frustrating. The camera can also cause problems. Everything else is great. Good graphics, nice sound, and fun levels. If you enjoyed croc get this game.

Cute game. Crazy camera. Those are the two words that best describe Croc2. Not to mention, of course, that it is a great sequel to the first Croc. Sorry, this was more of a commentary than a review.

By A Customer
This review is from: Croc 2 (CD-ROM)
When I started playing this game it was fun. But when i got farther in the 1st level it got really annoying because of the
stupid camera angles. It was so easy to lose directions i almost
broke the computer. Stay away from this Game.
