Charlie II is a nice improvement over the original, Charlie the Duck. Every level is full of hidden and secret areas, and the challenge is to find them in order to collect coins and diamonds. Charlie can't leave the level until he has found enough coins, which is determined by the difficulty setting. There are also hidden levels to unlock. The game looks better and has more types of enemies than the original, and Charlie can now enter some areas by diving in the water. Starting with version 2.0, each version includes both a DOS version and a Win9x version that takes advantage of DirectX, adding Scale2x image smoothing, as well as background music and realistic quacking. Both versions are in the same archive. The DOS-only versions have a Win32 installer. There are 18 levels in this game, with only the first 6 levels playable in the shareware version. There is also an expansion pack that adds 18 additional levels to the registered version.
