This is the most popular game of the series. Bubble Hero 2 has what its predecessor lacked, difficulty progression. It even gets challenging at World 6 and 7. The enemies are different in each World and they also gradually become challenging, which is welcomed, (though the teleporting enemies can be quite cheap and annoying) and the bosses are just as memorable as the ones in the previous games (however the 5th boss is kinda dumb because he can teleport to places where you can't hit him and all you can do is sit and wait and I think the final boss is way too unfair and the only possible way to beat him is to abuse the edge-of-screen-warping)
There are new and more fun bonus stages and screen clear power-ups this time around. New features include a simple password system, a difficulty setting, which changes the number of enemies on screen, and a 2-players mode. The graphics are improved too, the artstyle and characters are just as cute and the game is filled with charming cutscenes, though the stages still use realistic backgrounds even though the game clearly used a hand drawn background in the 2nd world, so why couldn't the artists do the same for the other worlds? Finally, the game has more upbeat and lovely music tracks with 4 unique tracks in all 7 worlds. Overall, this game perfected the previous one making it one of my favorite retro PC games.

Note: I apologize for skipping some stages in the final World, maybe I'll replay this game on Hard mode someday, but not anytime soon.
