Jurassic
Boy 2 is a blatent ripoff of the Sonic formula, and doesn't
even try to hide it.
The
story goes:
In
the year 2193, "Dinosaur" becomes a popular subject
again. Scientists all work for making dinosaur revive.
Nevertheless, they still lack of a special gene. This causes
the dinosaurs they cultivate are all incomplete.
Many countries then intend to buy dinosaurian fossil at high
prices in order to get the gene.
But it seems that it's not so easy.
No one can do anything to this problem until Dr. Crachi invents
a "Time Space" machine in the year 2197.

The
game was created by a company called 'Sachen', who live off
little knock off games like this. You follow 'Chen' the Dinosaur
as you run across bridges, over spikes, and around loop-de-loops,
just like Sonic.
The
game however, is very buggy, not just due to the fact that it's
a shoddy game, but it's also a port of a NES game by the same
name. There is no 'Jurassic Boy 1', the 2 was added to be like
'Sonic 2'.

For
a Game Boy Colour game, the gameplay is very fast, almost like
a Sonic game, and in comparison to other GBC hacks isn't half
bad. Most of the game finds you just pressing the Jump button
constantly and flying through the air until you reach the next
bit of land.

|
There
are boss levels, the first boss is a enlarged version of a Bee
that you see throughout the level.
|
|
At
the end of the level you pass a sign post, just like the Sonic
games.
|
|
The
second level takes you into a underground Bone level, which
introduces Springs.
The
game is supposedly completable, but with very little to no 'ending'.
