Play Summer Games Ii Online

Summer Games II is a sports video game released in 1986 for the MS-DOS platform. Developed by Epyx, Inc. and published by U.S. Gold Ltd., it is presented as a multi-sport competition. The game does not carry an official Olympic license, leading to its events being branded as part of the "Epyx Games."

Players control an athlete representing a chosen country, with support for up to eight participants taking turns. The core objective is to compete in a series of sporting events to earn medals. Players can structure their session in several ways, including competing in all events sequentially, selecting a subset of events, focusing on a single event, or practicing an event individually. The game features both opening and closing ceremonies, with the latter including visual elements such as a figure referred to as a "fan man," the extinguishing of a flame against a darkening sky, a passing blimp, and fireworks displays.

Progression is centered around performing in individual athletic events, with gameplay systems focused on the specific controls and mechanics required for each sport. Players attempt to achieve high scores or fast times, and the game includes functionality to save world records to the disk. Some versions of the game allow access to events from the original Summer Games title, though this requires ownership of that separate software diskette. The experience is built around alternating turns in a competitive multiplayer format or solo play against recorded benchmarks.
