Game Review (written by Eric) Added on: 01/30/2008
Commander Keen 2: Invasion of Vorticons is the second installment in the Commander Keen series. It is a simple side scolling game that is divided into three sections: Marooned on Mars, The Earth Explodes and Keen Must Die.
A Vorticon Mothership is poised to destroy every major city on earth with its Tantalus Ray. The Vorticons are set to destroy many of earth’s major landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower in France, the Sphinx in Egypt, the Sydney Opera House in Australia and so much more.

The Vorticons are set to destroy many of earth’s major landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower in France, the Sphinx in Egypt, the Sydney Opera House in Australia and so much more. There’s bound to be damages that will result in global chaos. You will play the role of Commander Keen whose mission is to prevent the Vorticons from destroying the major cities. You can do this by sneaking inside

the ship. Once inside, you have to find your way to the control room and destroy the X-14 Tantalus Ray.
As you make your way to the control room of the Tantalus Ray, you must find items inside the ship that will help you defeat the Vorticons. You only have a pogo stick and a Vorticon Hyper-pistol but the pistol does not have any ammunition. Once inside the ship you will find yourself having a wonderful adventure.
The game’s graphics is mediocre. There aren’t enough details to make the settings interesting and engaging. The music is also not that good but I don’t really mind the sound effects and music just as long as they are not annoying or distracting. There are few enemies in the games. It would have been so much better if the game featured more creatures and if the developer paid more attention to details.
Despite the average graphics and the simple game play, the game is still a fun game to play and worth downloading. The reason this game is popular is that it really provides gamers with a genuinely fun time. The game is definitely more difficult than the first Commander Keen game but it shouldn’t turn anyone off from the game. The difficulty actually adds more challenge and makes the game more fun.
Fans of the Commander Keen game will surely enjoy it but even those who have not tried the first game or any of the other Commander Keen games will enjoy this one. I suggest you click on the download button now and give this game a shot. It wouldn’t have been a popular game if it were bad.
