Puzzli 2: Super, is a small update to Puzzli 2 --- Puzzli 2 was released during 1999 and the update (Super) was released during 2001. Previously, I had uploaded the first Puzzli game, and I had planned to upload Puzzli 2, but then I realized that Puzzli 2: Super...well, it did not appear to have any videos for it because it was believed that "P2S" was "unplayable". However, as you can see, that is not the case, at least not currently! Also, the differences between P2 and P2S are pretty minor, so just think of this as playing the "full" P2.

As worded by Mobygames:

"It (Puzzli 2: Super) adds a VS COM mode where you play against the computer (Puzzli 2 only had a VS. mode for 2 players). When playing multiplayer, creating connections of more than three causes fish trapped in bubbles to drop into the opponent's grid. Fish in bubbles cannot be connected with other fish, but if fish are eliminated in adjacent squares the bubbles burst and the fish become normal. Each player has a "dead line" at the bottom of the screen; if any stacks of fish move below the line the player loses the round. The water-line also drops over time, meaning that fewer fish are needed to cross the dead line. It is also possible to win a multiplayer game by completely clearing the entire grid."

If you have watched the previous Puzzli video, the general idea of the game is the same, though P2 (or P2S) has some really nice updated graphics (very rich colors, quality animations from the quirky characters, etc.) and the puzzles are trickier this time. In other words, more of the same, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing! If the gameplay description above is not satisfactory in explaining the game mechanics, you can generally see how things work when watching the video in full. It is a simple enough premise, but things get more difficult with less moves before the deadline changes, fish variations change, etc.
