Rather than being a real sequel to the original Konami World, the second
in the series is now purely an action game that allows you to temporarily
morph into famous Konami characters and play through their levels. There
are also little mini-games, like a few Gradius and Twinbee levels, that
make the game even more interesting. Though it lacks the scope of the original,
the gameplay overall is better and just more fun taken as a whole.
