 This game is a blast! March 22, 2000
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
While I'm not a big fan of the RPG genre, this game successfully combines elements of RPG and platform games. Let me start by saying this game is a blast. While it's not a true 3D game, the graphics are in 3D although you move in a somewhat 2D fashion (similar to Crash Bandicoot). The graphics however are top-notch. The atmosphere is very cute and cartoon like but I'm a sucker for these kinds of games. Tomba 2 will keep you busy with many tasks to complete. And while not all of these tasks are essential to completing the game you will want to finish them just for the fun of it. The only complaint I have about this game is sometimes the controls are a little tough (swinging can be a little awkward at times) but once you get used to them it's not too bad. Also, get a game guide. This game's a monster and you should have a guide so you don't miss a thing. If you like platform games this one's a must. It takes a little getting used to but be patient, you'll be hooked in no time. Enjoy!

Tomba 2 is a great game with just one mistake: Tomba doesn't talk! Tomba's mosquito-like friend, Zippo does all the talking for Tomba, so we don't get to hear Tomba's voice. Other than that, the game's great!

There were some big shoes to fill when creating a sequel to the best side scroller on the PS1, and they pulled it off. this game does everything right, and only has one realy flaw. some parts of the game feel like a real chore. when you first arrive at the mining village, you will be doing miniscule tasks and errands (pushing around a wheel-barrel full of coal for one) for a while, this happens in another town as well. while there were central hub areas in the original, and you would receive quests there, you didnt have to do boring jobs in town while you were there.
other than that, its just as much fun as the original classic, even the switch to blocky 3-d environments holds up in this day and age, as the areas are just as unique and inviting this time around. the game plays just like Tomba, you'll be slaying evil pigs, climbing around, and picking up side quests for hours. im not sure of the exact number of quests this time around, but its somewhere around 150.
with the loads of areas, enemies and quests you'll be busy for hours. you pick up new weapons and abilities almost constantly, so its pretty much impossible to get sick of this series. its a classic. its one of the best platformers on PS1, and if you enjoy 2d platformers at all, check out this little gem now, before it gets even more expensive.

Tomba is a fun game for all ages and could be played for hours. Tomba is an RPG game, but is still fun to play. The music is great, far from it. This is just another game that you cannot live without! (Well, you could, I'm just trying to lighten-up my opion on the game!)
