Gameplay

[edit]
When in the same room, both players use the same screen, leaving the other blank.

Spy vs. Spy II: The Island Caper[2] adds a side-scrolling play area.[3] Spies no longer start with a fixed number of traps but must collect the raw materials to build them

Reception

[edit]

Ahoy! stated that Spy vs. Spy II "expands and improves" on the first game, with all-new traps and improved graphics.[4]

Steve Panak for ANALOG Computing wrote "you've got an action-packed game. Spy vs Spy II is a fantasy adventure recommended for all who enjoy a little harmless espionage."[5]

Computer and Video Games stated "The cartoon graphics are every bit as good as on Spy vs Spy and, with seven levels of action, you'll find it a real challenge."[6]

In a 92/100 review, Zzap! concluded "Fans of the original won't be disappointed."[7]
