Most of the secrets are very well hidden, to the point that you can replay the level a bunch of times and still be unsure where to find some of them. Due to its massive size, secrets are a bit of a hassle to find and backtracking to explore another path can be a bit tedious, if not impossible (it’s no longer possible to backtrack at some points in the level, such as the ending part). This, however, makes exploring for gems and coins a little bit tedious.


Unlike most of the levels, it’s very open and lets the player choose whatever path they want to. “Tipplenborough” takes an interesting approach to designing a JJ2 level. Level 2: “Tipplenborough” by PT32 – Rating: 8.5/10 Jelly’s idea to add the “Club Penguin” section was very nice but the tileset chosen for it was not really the best. The visuals are gorgeous… until the later part of the level. It’s a perfect introduction to what the level pack has to offer, teaching the player all the mechanics and shenanigans they’ll have to deal with throughout the episode. Level 1: “Penguinvasion” by Jelly Jam – Rating: 9.7/10Īs much as I’m trying to give this level a lower rating, I can’t bring myself to do so. The music is well chosen, a bad loop or two here and there but nothing too irritating. Visually, the level pack is mostly pleasant to the eye, with no noticeable tile bugs. As for Easy, unless you’re very inexperienced with video games (or with JJ2), don’t even consider it. I suggest picking Hard difficulty instead of Medium for a more challenging experience and if you want to play it casually, Medium is the best pick.


What I consider to be worth mentioning is that the level pack is very easy. The difficulty scaling is done properly and there barely any sections that make you want to say “Bah, that’s bulls**t!”. Despite my implication in this level pack, I promise that this review isn’t biased and I’ll give my thoughts on each level with the exception of my level, as well as general ideas about the episode. The pack consists of 7 levels, each being made by a different level maker. After three months of work and around a month of delay, it’s finally here.
