Rating Menace to Wonders:

To start:
Seven excellent created levels which are considerably long and hard.

Large levels:
This episode contains seven levels which is all long and cumbersome. Gus have made the levels beautiful. The enemies and obstakels are well scattered and the eyecandy is also very good.

No bosses:
A large pity: Gus have placed no end bosses. A pity with a large P, because Gus creates regular his own end bosses and does that very good. For example: download ‘Flashback: Outta dis World’ and ‘The Game Machine’. In the final levels of them Gus has created his own bosses.

Puzzles:
The levels have been strewn with several puzzles and riddles which you must answer to come further in the level or reveal secrets. All puzzles are not just as easy… with some puzzles I was more than one quarter busy!

Conclusion:
In spite of that there are no end bosses this is nevertheless an excellent episode. I look forward to play his next episode, but Gus… could you please put (selfcreated) end bosses in it?

[Rating (8.6) clearance. Why were the enemies and obstacles well scattered? Why were the levels beautiful? You still need to specify the upload’s good sides before rating. ~Cooba]

Enemies/Obstacles:
They were good placed, because it were not too much and not too less. The level is on that way hard, but not impossible. I always mean that if I say that the Obstacle Placement is good.

Eyecandy:
It’s beautiful, because there is a nice background, maybe a good foreground and the path is beautiful. I always mean that if I say that the eyecandy is good.

But I never write that in my review, because I think that everyone knows when something is good.

Rating Hellsinki:

To start:
Very well Capture the Flag-level for lucky people and people who remember good.

Mysterious paths:
It seems that there are in this level many paths present… but that is not correct. You would THINK that it are paths, but it is background… Lucky people have no problems with that challenge… because if you choose a wrong platform, you’ll fall down… At people who much luck it will not happen often.
In fact also a type Memory, because you must really can remember: which paths are real and which paths not?

Strange Title:
The level is called ‘ Hellsinki ‘, probably named to the capital of Iceland. (Helsinki therefore) So, Peter and I thought that it was in the snow… but no, was in the shelter of Devan Shell, there was everywhere magma!

One thing is unfortunately:
It is a pity that the one flag left and other right in the level is. My favoriete Capture the Flag-levels are he where you really must search the flags.

Conclusion:
In spite of this disadvantage this is a very well Capture the Flag-level with a strange title.

Rating Spaz Mission:

To start:
This not particular episode has eight levels which has not been created even nicely.

So-so Eyecandy:
This episode has 8 levels and is a fairly long episode. But the eyecandy is not always even good. In the Beach-level is it very well, but I am not entirely satisfied about the eyecandy in a lot of other levels…

End Bosses:
This episode has many end bosses at the exit. In the third level (Beach) is that not entirely in order, because the Uterus Boss has come on me before I have reached an Activate Boss-event…

Insipid final:
Final level exists only a fight with Devan, that is everything.

Conclusion:
There are therefore considerably what shortcomings. However, this episode is not at all bad for everyone who likes ordinary levels, does not find it terrible that the eyecandy is not even well and that the Uterus can appear suddenly…

To start:
In these five levels you will play with a new type Treasure Hunt: 50 second fight!

Five levels:
In five levels it is the intention to catch 100 gems within 50 seconds. If none of both succeeds, the floor collapses and then must there the someone rapidly gems catch, before the other one does it.

Special events:
In all the five levels there are a number of events. With the events you can deserve extra gems. Original considered, say! Congratulations! And oh, yes… in the Level Description stands which events all levels have…

Minuses:
There is unfortunately a number of shortcomings. First: the eyecandy in level 5 is very bad, because everyone who cannot against of epileptic attacks (such as my brother Peter) is that a very worse level.
We discovered it too late and Peter lies now in bed. The chamber has entirely darkened, he has a lot of water and my mother must call the doctor…
Moreover it is not also honest as everyone has more than 100 gems and after the 50 seconds the the one with the lowest number of gems nevertheless picks up the win…

Conclusion:
Although we have delighted our a lot on this game, we only advise these levels for everyone whom has no charge of epileptic attacks and which it does not find terrible that the player with the lowest number of gems wins…

This music is absolutely not worth it.

JJ1 Boss Remix:
It is well hear that this music was concerning JJ1-end boss. In spite of that: in the beginning it does not seem that it Jazz Jackrabbit related is, it nevertheless proved be the case.

Shortcomings:
However this music has a lot shortcomings. For example: he is not in Modplug Player, what very annoying is if you want use him in your own level. Moreover music does cause some pain to your ears.

Conclusion:
The music is reasonable, but because it is not in ModPlug Player and it can cause hurting ears this is no DL.

To start:
For each JJ2-fan those the Multiplayergame Battle likes, is this new challenge absolutely recommended.

Game rules:
This game must be plaid with split computers. On Battle mode you need to find and destroy the hidden player.
When a player is found, he must wait of being destroyed.

You can do this at home:
Just as nice to know:
Peter had itself blocked in the forest and I had find him. If I had found him, I had spray him with my water gun, before the music which had set up by my father, had expired. Unfortunately it did not succeeded me that and Peter did catch the victory.

Compliments for Gus:
After the 1 for ‘Single Player Mission 1: Colosal, The Lost Token’ Gus have made now two superb levels with a beautiful eyecandy.
There are no goodies, but that I found it is not necessary. You do not have nevertheless much, it is only hide concerning and wait if your antagonist finds you (and shoot on you) before the music ends.

And further:
are these levels superb!

Conclusion:
This is absolutely a download recommendation. Congratulations, Gus.

This disappointing episode is no download recommendation. Why not, that will I tell you now.

Bad Goodies Placement:
In this level much too much goodies have been placed. Too much blue gems. There are also too much green.

Much too difficult:
There are too many enemies. The level are very cumbersome, even if you play on Easy. I was as a matter of fact also able to finish the level with Lori. I think that is also impossible.

Boss:
The end boss is also much too cumbersome. The rotten Bilsy fight from fire. I have played this level 29 times and I are not able to beat him. VERY DIFFICULT for starting JJ2-fans.

To start:
A good episode with four levels: two boss-levels and two puzzle-levels.

Boss-levels:
Level 1 and 4 are Boss-levels. Level 1 against the robot of Devan, level 4 against Bolly, also a robot. It is hampered in both levels. In level 1 by the Tuf Boss and in level 4 with a lot of spikes.

Puzzle-levels:
Level 2 and 3 are Puzzle-levels.
It are nerve-racking puzzles with Big Rocks. Sometimes you must there on or other manner towers there of builds of other Big Rocks. Or you must push them concerning spikes gone, what only possible is if you freeze him with your Freezer Ammo.
I have also discovered something: if you freeze a Big Rock and you pushes it away, it slips away. In level 3 there are also puzzles present with water. Generally you must be then above, before the water on its highest state. In fact a type race.

Not complete:
Unfortunately this episode is not complete.

Conclusion:
Apart from the fact that the episode is not complete, this is still a very well episode. For truth puzzle-fans is this to my idea as well as Tomb Rabbit an episode of their dreams

To start:
A good Jazz Jackrabbit-episode which Jazz, Spaz and Lori by several computergames must stray, in search of orbs to be able dissipate Devan Shell again.

The Games:
Your rabbit must itself by five computergames clears himself to search orbs. On order the computergames are: Super Mario, Sonic, Rayman, Nethergate and Star Wars.

12 or 15 orbs?
If you have twelve orbs, it looks if you go to Devan, but you must find then in Star Wars still 3 orbs. Very funny. You think that you have almost completed the game, but that is not right.

The final:
If you have 15 orbs, you must cover Devan Shell by making it’s machine harmless. You can do that by taking off a course through the machine. But the block-systems even impede your and can your flatten.
Eva help you. Where she stands, the block-systems will not fall. If you take into account with that and fall, it is a piece of cake to destroy the Game Machine.

Conclusion:
All in all is this a good game. The only problem is, that if you fall, you must type JJK and especially JJ2-fans that forgetful to be, are able perhaps forget that.
Furthermore is everything good and this game is absolutely a download recommendation.

Rating Devans Time Machine:

This is a rather good delivery of jazz Jackrabbit. It has six levels, all created from traditional JJ2-tilesets.

The first level is called ‘Lizard Land’ and takes place on Diamondus. With a beautiful context and good placements you must with your rabbit to the exit, somewhere on the left.

Level 2 is also on Diamondus, but only is it now night. The level is called Windy Day and are there at the exit an end boss. For exact to be, the Tuf Boss. Level also this have beautiful eyecandy and the bonussen and enemies have been well placed.

The third level is not on Diamondus. Your rabbit is in the royal gardens of Carrotus. With the castle and a bunch on the context it is splendid. Enemies have been well placed. That also applies to the goodies. Just like at level 1 the exit are left in your screen.

In level number four approaches you the laboratory of Devan Shell. Somewhere in the level a puzzle with block-systems is which you must destroy by shooting or stomping. Here too the placements are well and the context is very well. The exit is the entrance of the laboratory and also the fifth level.

Unfortunately the fifth level is again the last but one. It takes place in the laboratory of Devan Shell. Your rabbit must move on himself between chemical mixtures and metal to blow. The most metal blow reflect your weapon. The eyecandy are very well, just like the placements.
To the end is the time machine of Devan Shell, where you must cover an end boss. The robot from the bad turtle for exact to be.

The sixth level is the final. The level is rather short, but nevertheless nice. The goodies and enemies have been well placed. The eyecandy are super and the game end boss also. It is none one, but it are two bosses where you must cover of it one. It are two clones of Devan. If you cover of it one, Devan deliver themselves and you have finished the game.

Conclusion:
It is a very well game. The more so if you do not find it terrible that all levels have been made of standard tilesets of JJ2.

Rating Battleship?!?

This is a good level with several routes.

The level takes place in a rocket. It is fairly large level. No well level therefore for beginners, you will think. But… there is a possibility within one minute at the termination of coming!

Then only still an end-boss and you are finished!

Therefore both for experts and beginners this level is sticking out.
If you choose other level of difficulty, the level becomes also a piece more cumbersome. For the short route it turns out better than expected, however, but if you take the long route, is it possible very really cumbersome becomes, because for example spike bolls will sit you in the way terribly. Moreover there are thus more enemies. All sticking out.

Dax105 also a splendid context has made. It is simply a superb level.
There is presently also a good number of number of goodies present. Not too much and also not too little.

Conclusion:
For both starting Jazz2-fans and experts this is a very good level.

This is a bad game with a maze that is much and much too hard for me.

The Maze:
The maze is not only a maze. It is a hard maze with lots of warps. It is possible that if you have played it, that you never want to play it again.

No good placements:
I am also not satisfied about the placements, the enemies are not good placed. Too less. And if there are enemies, it are much to much. (and only Fat Chicks)
That’s also with the goodies.

Conclusion:
This game is not worth it.
No download recommendation.

[Inappropiate rating (1.4) removal. Rating should depend on difficulty this much, and no good overview of why the rating was given was given – FQuist]

That doesn’t fit. I have also said that the placements are not good. And I forgot to say, that the eyecandy is also very bad. Poor background and a boring path. Peter is the best one that I know for maze-levels, but also he wasn’t able to do it. So, this level is also almost impossible.

Furthermore it is no original level, because I have already considerable what labyrinths seen. And this level have no story. Therefore my mark remains at 1.4. Is this a better review?
And if not, can I request you this: DO NOT BLOCK ME?

For a Orbitus-level is this a very fit song. While I thought first it is just the orginal Orbitus-song (in that case this worth a 1) I was wrong. When the song plays 1:49, also some instruments from Tubelectric starts playing. Extremely good. This song is also extremely long: 5:23.

(Unsupported rating removal. How do Tubelectric instruments and a length of 5:23 justify a rating of 9.9? Are Tubelectric instruments an inherently good thing? Why? Is it not an issue that nearly the first two minutes of the song are unedited? ~Violet)

ANSWER:
You have made a mistake. There are really differences at the first two minutes.

*The drums start later and on another order. In real Orbitus-music is that not the case.

*Dude-dude-dude at the begin last longer

*Just before the two minutes hear you also instruments of Tubelectric. In real Orbitus-music is that also not the case

So, there are really differences. I’ve putted back my 9,9.
