A follow-up of sorts to RFI and Jzayed's classic-style platformer Tower of the Forsaken Jew, this twisted sequel actually takes things in the opposite direction and retrofies the series. Once again, Kyle is trapped in a deadly tower full of puzzles and obstacles, only this time, it's in an 8 Bit late 1980's style world! Featuring more emphasis on puzzles and more levels to play through, this is definitely one of the more intriguing sequels in SPG. The first South Park game to be released in 2010.
Yet another bizarre and intriguing idea from RFI and Jzayed, the 8-bit stylised approach to this game (though not perfect) is just plain cool and inspired. There are also plenty of levels and the game is a lot more puzzle-focused. Unfortunately there are some major flaws in the gameplay and the music is completely out-of-place so it's far from perfect, but still a very playable and interesting game well worth checking out. If only they'd have spent a bit more time ironing out the game's easily-fixed flaws, this could have been one of the best SPGs of all time.
