"Once you've got the hang of things Power Spikes II is a simple volleyball game that can provide some entertainment. There's a range of serve options, power shots and frantic moments where you hope to get to the ball in time, but the simplified nature leads to little variety even with the various shot types. There are times you can score quickly (maybe even from a serve) and there is a rush of excitement when you do so, but there is also a lot of time spent knocking the ball back-and-forth, simply tapping left or right to get into position to make sure the process can continue. Ultimately Power Spikes II is a little too simple to offer long term appeal."

About
Power Spikes is a volleyball game that strips the sport down to fast-paced action. Played from a side view with horizontal scrolling, it focuses on serving, spiking, and blocking. Players move left and right to hit the ball over a net while defending against opponents’ returns. The controls are tight but demand timing and precision, making each match feel like a back-and-forth battle. The game includes single and multiplayer modes, letting you test your skills against friends or AI. Though not a genre-definer, Power Spikes carved a niche with its aggressive playstyle and responsive mechanics. Critics in 1991 praised its energetic matches and simple learning curve, even if the visuals felt basic by later arcade standards. It’s remembered more for its addictive local multiplayer than any technical achievements, with retro gamers occasionally reviving it for quick, competitive rounds. Not the most beloved title today, but a solid example of early 90s arcade sports design.
