Guns, Gore & Cannoli 2 is a 2D shooter platformer that allows players to assume the role of Vinnie, an old Mafia member still grappling with the consequences of the events in the first game.
While clearly inspired by games like Contra, Guns, Gore & Cannoli 2 is not as challenging as the classics it draws inspiration from. In fact, the game is easier than its franchise predecessor.
The gameplay has seen significant improvements compared to the first game. Players must navigate through stages, simultaneously encountering zombies and Mafia members who open fire. The screen is filled with various elements, requiring players to skillfully eliminate enemies while avoiding getting hit. The gameplay surpasses that of the initial game in the franchise, which I found perfect at the time.
The story serves as a sequel to the first game, and newcomers may feel completely lost without having played it before. I highly recommend experiencing the first installment as it is genuinely humorous and entirely sarcastic. However, if you choose not to, the engaging gameplay should suffice to keep you interested until the end.
The art maintains its high quality with a cartoon design that complements the game's vibe. No significant changes have been made from the first game, and I appreciate that.
Guns, Gore & Cannoli 2 stands out as a commendable sequel—a short, incredibly enjoyable game that is worth every penny.

Played this with a friend from start to finish. It's decent for what it is. It's funny, the constant one-liners may not be for everyone, however they hit the funny-bone for me. While the game is simple, it's a very good time for two people on a voice call just chatting, playing, and going through the silly game.
Really like the first one - still playing it - and this one is a good game as well, I'm just not a fan of the 360 aiming abilities, I like it more simple, like in the first game, where you could only shoot forward and backwards.
Maybe I will, give it another go, some time in the future.... just maybe.
