Title
Making this simple but pleasurable action game is much harder than it looks. One round of this is like an easy shot of espresso.

Title
Jungle Kong
I have great memories of playing Jungle King with my sister. It was a rare enough thing to get her into an arcade, so to find a game that she actually enjoyed was a success in itself.

The game is basic enough - you are Tarzan and over the course of four screens must face the challenges of the jungle to rescue your Jane. Basically it's just Donkey Kong in an African setting. Jump over boulders, swing on vines, swim through crocodile infested waters and take on a couple of cannibals - all in a day's work for the ape man. To be fair, none of the levels are particularly difficult, so you would never base a gaming career around Jungle King. But it had a very big fun factor.
