The Lion King II (Chinese: 獅子王II) is an unlicensed platformer for the Sega Mega Drive. It is loosely based on the 1994 film The Lion King. It was developed by Gamtec at an unknown date, and uses sound effects from Wonder Boy III: Monster Lair.
A sequel, Lion King 3, was developed later on, and is also loosely based on the first movie.
Overview[]
There are two playable characters: Simba and Mufasa (while powered up), the latter can be played by collecting a golden star. Simba can be recessed when touching an enemy, and torches act as checkpoints; the player's lion can activate them by jumping up when next to a torch.

Trivia[]
- Reprints of the original cartridge contain an unintentional bug, possibly due to faulty patching to copy protection found in the original game. The bug causes both invincibility and unlimited lives. Although the life meter does not decrease, the player will still transform from lion to cub if attacked by an enemy.
- Rather controversially, a swastika (or more specifically, a Manji, which the Swastika was based off) appears on one of the machines in one of the stages.
- The game became famous after YouTuber JonTron mentioned it in his Disney Bootleg videos.
