In his second adventure James Pond must retrieve the toys Dr Maybe has stolen. Pond has been armed with an Inspector Gadget-style stretch device, which he can use to view higher areas or claw onto ceilings so as to slide across them.

The gameplay takes place across worlds themed around particular types of toys, such as sporting goods, candy and aircraft. The levels scroll sideways, although a small amount of vertical movement is included. On each level Pond must collect 2 penguins and reach the exit, although there are usually multiple exits and lots of secret areas to explore. After completing each pair of two worlds (each of which has three sub levels), a boss must be faced.

Limited Invincibility -   At The beginning of the game outside the factory, there will be a number of items located on the roof. If you get them in this order (Cake, Hammer, Earth, Apple, Tap) You will get Invincilbility for a limited time (This spells out CHEAT). This is a holdover from the original Mgadrive version, but in that game it was 20 minutes.
