Son Son II is a side-scrolling action platformer for the TurboGrafx-16 and PC Engine. You control a monkey hero armed with a staff, traveling through fantasy environments inspired by Journey to the West. Jumping and close-range attacks form the core of the action, while shops, hidden items, and equipment improvements give the journey more to manage than the next gap or enemy.

Gameplay
Stages combine platforms, hostile creatures, and routes that can extend vertically as well as horizontally. The staff provides a quick attack in front of the hero, so facing and distance determine when an enemy is within reach. Defeated foes and breakable objects can yield items or money, connecting exploration with the supplies available in shops. Purchases include useful recovery and magical equipment, giving the collected currency a purpose beyond the score. Special weapons broaden your options when a direct staff attack is awkward, while improvements help against more durable enemies and bosses. Health must last through the hazards between those encounters, which makes optional discoveries useful to continued progress. The result is a platforming adventure with a steady exchange between moving forward, checking the surroundings, and deciding how to spend what you collect.
