Adventures of Lolo 2 (アドベンチャーズ オブ ロロ, Adobenchāzu obu Roro) is a puzzle game released in 1990 by HAL Corporation for the NES/Family Computer. It is the sixth installment of the Japanese Eggerland video game series; it was the fourth game released in European countries and the second one released in the United States and Canada.[1][2]

The original Japanese title of the game can be transliterated as Adoventaru ofu Lolo or Adventures of Lolo. The previous title in the series was titled Adventures of Lolo, too, but it was released in North America and Europe only. Therefore, this title was localized as Adventures of Lolo 2 outside Japan.

Adventures of Lolo 2 was released on the Wii Virtual Console in Japan on June 5, 2007, in North America on January 21, 2008,[3] and in PAL regions on February 1, 2008.

Gameplay

Gameplay is virtually identical to the previous Adventures of Lolo 1 and Eggerland: Sōzō e no Tabidachi. Some of the monster graphics were drawn differently, mainly Gol, Rocky, Skull, Medusa, and Don Medusa. Other differences include new puzzles and greater difficulty, with some puzzles taken from the older games in the Eggerland series.

The game features a total of 50 different puzzle rooms; the player faces King Egger at the end. Also featured are four hidden Pro puzzle rooms, which are available for players who want to try very challenging rooms.[2][3]
