About this game

Boffin 2 is an action-platform game developed by Paul Julian O'Malley and published by Addictive Games Ltd for the BBC Microcomputer System.

Players guide Professor Boffin through a series of caves, destroying every horseshoe in each cavern before touching its resident owl, the cave’s guardian. Included in the original Boffin release, Boffin 2 retains the same core gameplay while introducing new layouts for all 25 screens.
