Montana Jones II is a single-player action-platform game released in 1994 for the ZX Spectrum 48K home computer.[1][2]

Gameplay

[edit]

The game involves guiding the character Montana Jones through levels focused on jumping, avoiding obstacles, and simple puzzle-style navigation. It was compared with Boulder Dash and Earth Shaker in a review in ZX Pilot. The player is chased by one or two enemies and must collect a required number of treasure chests in order to obtain a key and leave each level through a door. The review states that the game contains 31 levels and allows the player to select one of three movement speeds.[3]

Platform and release

[edit]

Montana Jones II was developed for the ZX Spectrum 48K and published by Home Masters, as it is recorded in vintage software catalogues.[1][2][4] It was released in English and supports standard input methods of the period, including Cursor, Interface 2 and Kempston joystick controls.[1]

In 1995, Spectrofon compared the game with Lode Runner.[5]
