Popeye 2 description

One of the very very few games about – no joke – the most famous hero of old, old comics and cartoons – Popeye, which was released on PC.

Who needs to imagine Popeye? Who in childhood or adolescence have not watched the cartoon about him? However, a few words you need to say. Popeye is a sailor-the little big man who always smokes a pipe, has a disproportionately thick forearms and becomes super strong after taste of spinach. It has a sweetheart – the beautiful olive OYL and worst enemy, a tall, burly and bearded sailor Brutus, in love with olive and otherwise harming Papaw, which he always leaves in the cold.

So Brutus wants to win the love of olive and, of course, the most simple way: by stealing and imprisoned her in a room, a path that punctuated by traps. Popeye the task – to pass all of them (in the game not enough levels), Dodge falling objects, climb the crooked stairs, jump over pits and thin floors (the game does have a very lot of jumping) way to defuse the bombs and collect different bonuses – like plot and loved the spinach.

Graphically, the game looks quite nice, bright and colorful, have a portion of fun to it, play is difficult, but interesting. Verdict – more than a standard platformer, but rare on our platform a famous hero, so for fans of Popeye is just a precious gift, the rest – on request.
