Seaman 2: Pekin Genjin Ikusei Kit (シーマン2 〜北京原人育成キット〜, lit. "Seaman 2: The Peking Man Rearing Kit") is a virtual pet video game for the PlayStation 2. It is the sequel to Seaman on the Dreamcast. In this game, players act as god of a miniature island, charged with the task of rearing Gabo, a 20-centimeter tall Peking Man, communicating through a custom microphone-equipped gamepad.[1]

Gameplay

Seaman 2 plays much like the original Seaman, but instead of playing as an actual inhabitant the player is much more of a god, with the ability to alter environments to give things to the island's inhabitants.[2]

Reception

Seaman 2 was the top-selling game during the week of its release in Japan at 33,000 copies.[3] The game sold a total of 61,878 copies in the region in 2007.[4]
