'''''Space Quest II: Vohaul's Revenge''''' (also simply known as "Space Quest II") is the second game in the ''VideoGame/SpaceQuest'' series, released in 1987. After the events of the first game, Roger Wilco is transferred to Xenon Orbital Station 4 and promoted to head janitor. However, an evil alien named Sludge Vohaul captures Roger for foiling his plan in the first game. Roger manages to escape, but realizes that Vohaul has another plan to obliterate Xenon. It's up to Roger to foil his plan at all costs.

!!This video game provides examples of:
* BridgeLogic: How you get across a chasm in ''Space Quest II''.
* CaughtInASnare: Roger [[StupidityIsTheOnlyOption accidentally trips a hunter's snare]] (at least you can't see it beforehand), and is stuck there until the hunter who set it eventually comes and takes him down, intending to bring him back to his lair as lunch.
--> '''Narrator''': Eventually, the cerebral fireworks begin, and you pass out. [...] You dream you're a man named VideoGame/LeisureSuitLarry...
* FanRemake: [[http://www.infamous-adventures.com/ Infamous Adventures]] has remade ''Space Quest II'' in the visual style of ''Space Quest IV''.
* InsurmountableWaistHighFence: The wild maze full of alien tentacles: if you so much as barely touch one of the tentacles, the head of the alien will come and eat you. Annoyingly, the tentacles are so low to the ground that realistically one could carefully tiptoe over them. You also have to navigate this maze twice.
