Feeding Frenzy 2 Demo

The ocean may appear lovely and colorful in pictures, but it is just as wild and dangerous as any other kind of jungle. Hence, every creature does everything in its power to survive, eat and mate, which means that nothing’s off limits as long as it’s in the name of survival. Predators stay alive by eating smaller and weaker fish, while the smaller fish do the same when their turn comes.

Feeding Frenzy 2 is the sequel to a very popular arcade game released quite a while ago, which features the same gameplay mechanics, only with an upgraded graphics engine and a variety of new features you can fun with. In essence, the main idea is the same, in the sense that you still have to eat everything in sight as fast as possible, while avoiding the bigger fish that try to do the same to you.

In the beginning, you start off as a rather small and weak fishie, which means that you have to watch out for predators at all times. After you eat enough food and grow bigger, you start taking revenge on some of these predators, until you are big enough to just swallow everything standing in your way. However, there’s almost always someone bigger out there, so you shouldn’t be too bold either.

In order to spice things up, it is possible to collect certain power-ups whenever they spawn around you. These provide you with certain bonuses and special abilities, such as additional points and extra speed. Speaking of which, your fish can also dash and jump out of the water when it needs to, which comes in handy if you need to catch creatures flying over the sea.

The visual quality of the game is nothing to stand in awe of, but the fishes and the environments are quite detailed most of the time. Some of the environments get a tad repetitive after a while, but you are usually too busy trying to feed and stay alive to notice small details about your surroundings. Thankfully, at least the sound effects are as funny and well-picked as ever, which greatly improves the atmosphere.

All things being equal, Feeding Frenzy 2 is by no means an amazing game concept, but it is fun enough to distract you for a few hours. Thus, if you are looking for something entertaining and challenging at the same time, this may very well be it.
