Overview
Description

Billy and Jimmy Lee return from training to confront a new threat in Egypt, guided by a mysterious fortune teller. The quest for the Rosetta Stones leads them through side‑scrolling levels filled with enemies and hidden weapon shops. The game introduces size‑changing power‑ups, energy boosts, and extra lives, while moving to more realistic character graphics. Play solo or with a friend in classic co‑op beat‑em‑up style.

Twin brothers Billy and Jimmy return in a colorful, over‑the‑top re‑imagining of the classic beat ’em up. Fight through glass‑jawed goons, teleporting geishas, and scientific abominations as you hunt down the evil Skullmageddon. Save the love of your life, Marion, while enjoying a tongue‑in‑cheek story and a soundtrack that riffs on 80s synth vibes.
