Play Son Son II Online

Summary

Son Son II is a quirky platformer that only ever saw a Japanese release on the PC Engine, and it feels like a love‑letter to classic side‑scrollers. Where the original Son Son resembled a multi‑layered scrolling shooter, this sequel drops the vertical planes and puts you squarely in the shoes of the mischievous Sun Wukong, wielding his iconic extendable staff. The gameplay echoes titles like Wonder Boy and Capcom’s Black Tiger – you run, jump, and swing your staff to dispatch enemies, collect coins, and hunt for the hidden key that unlocks each boss fight. Those coins aren’t just for bragging rights; they’re Zenny, one of Capcom’s earliest uses of a dedicated in‑game currency, letting you buy health refills and upgrades on the fly. The overarching quest is simple yet charming: rescue your traveling companions – Tripitaka, Pigsy and Sandy – after they’re snatched by a shadowy final boss in the opening cutscene.
