Whether you're playing the versus mode against the AI or a friend, it plays identically to the first game. Unlike in the original Bust-A-Move, this sequel allows you to play against the computer in a special stage-based versus mode. Although minimal, these additions are definitely welcome. However, a couple of nifty power-ups can help alleviate some of the challenge: metal bubbles pop all bubbles in their path and star bubbles remove all of whichever colour you hit with them. To make things trickier, new stone blocks cannot be destroyed while obstructive bubbles can only be dropped.

This time around, there are a few complexities. For starters, Puzzle Bobble 2 (which is often referred to as Bust-A-Move Again in the west) has the same basic gameplay where you try and match similarly coloured bubbles in order to make them pop. 🏆 Well, that's awfully tricky.Ĭonsidering I reviewed ACA NeoGeo: Puzzle Bobble less than a couple weeks ago, I won't get into the basics in-depth here and instead, I'll primarily focus on the differences between the two games.
