I’m not sure how much skill is involved in clicking stop, so I didn’t look too hard for those bonuses in each scene. When you press stop, it slowly comes to a stop, and you either gain points with a bunny or lose points with a wolf. I’m not sure I get the point of the skill game – it opens a small window with a few bunnies and wolves and point values that light up one by one. In addition to locating all the objects on the list, there are further challenges to find a hatching chick in each scene and open a hidden skill game to earn more points. The more streamlined appearance makes the scenes easier to complete, but hints are still readily available in casual mode. The graphics in the hidden object scenes in Easter Eggztravaganza 2 are crisp and clear and not too cluttered to be able to find the objects. The storyline follows Mike and Emma through their Easter celebrations such as decorating eggs and participating in the Easter parade. The same grocery store soundtrack music remained, which I turned off after a little while.

I was pleasantly surprised that many of the things I didn’t care for in the original game were updated – gone were the airbrushed characters narrating the game and the hidden object scenes were less cluttered. Hippity, hoppity, Easter’s on its way! After my experience with the original Easter Eggztravaganza, I wasn’t holding out much hope for the sequel beyond my love for the punny title.
