Cheetahmen II was a video game produced by Active Enterprises as a sequel to one of the many games on its multi-game cartridge Action 52. It was never sold commercially; all 1,500 known copies of the game were located by Sean Roche in a warehouse in 1997. Thus the cartridge is very hard to come by. ROM images exist on the Internet.
There are three "Cheetahmen" in the game. They are named after figures from Greek mythology – Ares, Apollo and Hercules.
In Cheetahmen II one assumes the role of one of the three Cheetahmen. Due to a bug it is impossible to gain access to the levels in which one assumes the role of the cheetahman Aries without altering the ROM image or being the lucky recipient of a glitch that very rarely starts the game on these two levels. Each Cheetahman is controlled over the expanse of two levels.
Cheetahmen II is famous for its lack of quality; it is reputed by many in the gaming community to be nearly unplayable. It is rumored to have been produced extremely quickly, with no debugging attempted.
