Motocross Maniacs 2 Gameboy game

Motocross Maniacs 2 is a motocross game for the GameBoy Color developed by Konami. It is rated E and serves as the sequel to the Game Boy game Motocross Maniacs.

The game's concept is quite simple; the player controls a motorcycle moving one way horizontally, much like in a platform game. When a level has been completed within its time limit, the player starts on the next. With only eight different levels and fairly simple gameplay, the game's complexity is not too different from other Game Boy games released during the introduction of the system. Despite this, Motocross Maniacs requires quite some skill to master. Additionally, the game provides replay value by letting the player beat previous time records, which are announced at the completion of a level. The game's cartridge, however, does not retain these records after the Game Boy is turned off.

Motocross Maniacs 2, also known as Crazy Bikers in Europe, is a racing game developed and published by Konami for the Game Boy Color in 1999. Serving as a sequel to the 1989 Game Boy title Motocross Maniacs, it features side-scrolling motocross courses where players ride dirt bikes and perform stunts over loops, jumps, ramps, and hills.

In the game, players can choose from ten motocross courses, completing stunts to score points. Two modes are available: 'Time Attack', where players must finish a course within a time limit, and 'Championship', which requires completing a series of five races while earning points from stunts to achieve the highest ranking. Additionally, Motocross Maniacs 2 includes a track editor for creating custom courses and supports two-player games via the Game Link Cable.

The game received positive reviews, drawing comparisons to the classic Nintendo game Excitebike. Critics praised its level editor, background music, and gameplay mechanics, with some considering it one of the best motocross games on the Game Boy platform.
