Summer Games II – Eight More Events, from Triple Jump to Kayaking | C64

️ Summer Games II (1985) – Commodore 64 Olympic Multi-Event Sports Classic Released in 1985 by Epyx, Summer Games II expands on the success of the original by delivering a broader and more varied Olympic-style competition on the Commodore 64. It refines the multi-event formula with new disciplines and a strong focus on competitive play. You can take part in eight events including triple jump, high jump, rowing, javelin, equestrian, fencing, kayaking, and cycling. Each event has its own rhythm and control style, rewarding timing, coordination, and practice. The game supports up to eight players, each representing a different country, making it ideal for competitive multiplayer sessions. Presentation plays a big role, with smooth animations, detailed backdrops, and a lively soundtrack that adds momentum to each event. Opening and closing ceremonies featuring fireworks and a blimp help sell the Olympic atmosphere and give the competition a celebratory feel.
