Gameplay

When in the same room, both players use the same screen, leaving the other blank.

Spy vs. Spy II: The Island Caper[1] adds a side-scrolling play area.[2] Spies no longer start with a fixed number of traps but must collect the raw materials to build them

Reception

Steve Panak for ANALOG Computing wrote "you've got an action-packed game. Spy vs Spy II is a fantasy adventure recommended for all who enjoy a little harmless espionage."[3]

Computer and Video Games stated "The cartoon graphics are every bit as good as on Spy vs Spy and, with seven levels of action, you'll find it a real challenge."[4]

In a 92/100 review, Zzap! concluded "Fans of the original won't be disappointed."[5]
