Ever played one of those arcade punching games where you whale on a pad as hard as you can? Sonic Blast Man II is basically that, but on the SNES—minus the risk of spraining your wrist. You play as this absurdly jacked superhero who punches everything from aliens to giant robots, and yeah, it’s as ridiculous as it sounds.

The first level throws you right into it: you’re smashing through walls, uppercutting helicopters, and occasionally rescuing civilians (who somehow survive being yeeted across the screen). The controls are simple—mostly just punch, jump, and a weirdly satisfying charge attack—but timing matters. Miss a punch, and you’ll eat a laser to the face.

It’s not deep, but there’s something weirdly addictive about the sheer over-the-top chaos. Just don’t expect a masterpiece—this is pure ’90s arcade nonsense, complete with questionable physics and enemies that explode into tiny people for some reason. If you’re in the mood for mindless destruction, it’s a blast (pun very much intended).
