Sparkster: Rocket Knight Adventures 2(スパークスター ロケットナイトアドベンチャーズ2, Supākusutā Roketto Naito Adobenchāzu 2) is a 1994 platform game developed and published by Konami for the Sega Mega Drive. It is a sequel to Rocket Knight Adventures. Even though the title screen refers to it as Sparkster: Rocket Knight Adventures 2, it was only known as Sparkster on the US and EU packaging. A game known as Sparkster was also released on the Super Nintendo but is a different game starring the same main character as this game. Later a sequel just called Rocket Knight was released for the PlayStation Network, Xbox Live Arcade and PC.

The game stars an opossum named Sparkster who carries a sword and jetpack on a mission to stop King Gedol from taking over the Kingdom of Zephyrus and kidnapping Princess Cherry.

Story

After being rescued by Sparkster in the first game, the Kingdom of Zephyrus comes under attack once again. This time from the Gedol Empire which is led by King Gedol. In addition to this, Sparkster must also confront his rival, Axel Gear, who was sent by King Gedol to kidnap Princess Cherry, the cousin to Princess Sherry.

Gameplay

The game plays similar to it's predesesor. The player can jump, attack with a sword, and use a rocket pack to fly short distances. When running into walls when using a jetpack the player will rebound if there is enough momentum left. Unlike the first game, the jet pack meter charges quicker and automatically, leading to more more opportunities to use the jetpack.
