■ Although doesn’t stray too far from the foundations laid by the original game, there are some fairly major, appropriately enough since it stars Chuck’s baby boy. Unlike Chuck, the second game’s newly born protagonist is somehow highly skilled at swinging around a massive wooden club. The difference this makes to the follow-up’s combat is that Chuck Junior’s weapon has greater range than the heavy boulders his dad throws around in the first game. On the down side, Junior isn’t able to hold rocks above his head for protection or pull off some of his dad’s other tricks. But doesn’t suffer from this omission too much, as its levels are designed around the capabilities of its pint-sized hero.
