Developed by Bitwave Games and based on the legendary original game, released in the twilight years of the Nintendo Entertainment System, Gimmick! 2 continues the adventures of our circular green hero Yokai Yumetaro, as he returns for an all-new epic journey, brimming with loveable new characters, locations and secrets behind every turn!

Bursting with character and charm, Gimmick! 2 follows in the footsteps of its predecessor, providing challenging, yet oh-so-addictive platforming action, with a unique physics-based Star mechanic which will challenge seasoned platforming veterans, as well as providing a new easier mode for those who prefer a more relaxing adventure.

Retaining the spirit of the golden era of platforming games, renowned British composer David Wise returns to score Gimmick! 2. A master of platforming and retro soundtracks, David created some of gaming’s most iconic soundtracks including the Donkey Kong Country series, Battletoads, Diddy Kong Racing, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, and many more.
