Our take on Tasty Planet: Back for Seconds
The page emphasizes enormous growth and a large collection of stages, but the central activity remains the same eating-and-growth loop. The bonus total also includes harder versions of earlier levels, not only new layouts.
What is Tasty Planet: Back for Seconds?
Control a grey goo that consumes objects smaller than itself and grows with each meal.
The story moves through six periods: modern times, the Late Cretaceous, Ancient Egypt, Ancient Rome, Feudal Japan, and the distant future. Each period contains different objects, including mice, cats, dinosaurs, mummies, gladiators, and flying saucers. The main story has almost 50 levels, followed by nearly 50 bonus stages containing new layouts and challenging versions of earlier levels. The goo can grow from microscopic size to a galaxy-sized form. Two-player cooperative play covers the entire game. Keyboard and mouse controls work in all modes; controller support depends on the operating system and mode.
