An extremely faithful port of the famous jump-n-run platform arcade game. Run, jump, and climb your way through a dangerous jungle while avoiding various animals and projectiles. Includes the introductory animations and features the arcade version's sliding screen transitions. Sega did an excellent job of capturing the flavor of the arcade game, as well as the little details. For example, unlike in other ports, the gorilla actually moves around while tossing random coconuts your way in the first stage; other ports of this title have a static graphic that magically dumps stuff at you. The monkey who sits stubbornly past the bridge, waiting to be sent flying into the water as you slide down the ledge is right where you’d expect him to be. Other than some flickering of moving objects (typical of most Intellivision titles with lots of action), the levels are recreated quite faithfully; think of Diner with a jungle theme and you’ll get an idea of the layout style used. But every port has drawbacks, and if I could point out the biggest one of this particular work, it’s that they only captured 2 levels; the 3rd scene with the stampeding rhinos and holes dotted among the landscape to duck into is noticeably absent.Read full review
This overlay fills the void that's part of the game. It's been "eons" that I and my Dad played this game. While organizing my game systems, I found some of my games were missing overlays. As a mystery as it was, I did a research to find replacements if such existed. It was on EBAY that I found these and other lost/missing overlays. Other websites gave leads to get some but they led to blind alleys. It's a fine thing to have fulfillment for a system that was the future now the past. Thank Q!
