Description
Sequel to the Adventures of Lolo puzzle with new more complex rooms. Published by HAL Laboratory, released in Europe in 1990. Lolo and Lala solving increasingly difficult rooms together with varied enemies. Second Adventures of Lolo with enriched mechanics on NES.
Middle entry of HAL's trilogy in PAL form, issued in the smaller print runs typical of the European NES market. The Europe release is markedly harder to complete than its American twin, as Nintendo's distribution across the continent was more fragmented at the turn of the 1990s. The sharper room-by-room difficulty curve sustains interest among period puzzle enthusiasts, housed in the European box format.
Is Adventures of Lolo 2 still worth playing in 2026?
A sequel to HAL Laboratory's puzzle, Adventures of Lolo 2 reprises the principle of rooms to solve by adding trickier new configurations and fresh enemy combinations. The clear logic and the placement rigour remain, but the challenge climbs noticeably, rewarding observation and planning. The production stays plain and effective, serving the pure puzzle. For a retro brain teaser fan, a Lolo series fan or a player after demanding cerebral challenge, the title keeps a remarkable intelligence and replayability.
