The weird and wonderful world of Jim is well suited to the GBA – fast-paced and addictive, with enough challenge to get the little grey cells working – but this disappointing port hasn’t done its slimy hero many favours, and GBA owners will find much better elsewhere.

Game InformerWith better action games out there for GBA, I suggest leaving this earthworm to the fisherman. [Sept 2002, p.94]
-
Superempire put in a password save system for EWJ2, but, sadly, it bites!
-
Nintendo PowerA loony bin full of variety, and it's a platformer that's worth going grazy over. [July 2002, p.150]
-
Even if you love EWJ you will most likely find nothing but disappointment from this game despite a splash of humor.
-
There are so many bugs in this game that at times it is unplayable, and futile to even attempt to do so.
-
Sloppily produced and bug-filled. It's still playable, but it's extremely difficult to overlook all the game's problems...because there's just so many of them.
-
Play MagazineDoesn't anyone, anywhere, give a rat's ass about this franchise anymore? [Aug 2002, p.76]
-
This port has a host of new problems that render the game virtually unplayable.
-
Not only a horrible example of game making, but terribly insulting to just about anybody who’s even familiar with the original versions on the 16 bit systems.
