Another reiteration of Jungle King/Hunt, this one changes the entire theme to pirates.
Taito side-scroller released for arcades in 1982 and for the Atari 2600 in 1983, is a modified version of Jungle King. A three phase platformer that puts the player in the shoes of a typical jungle survivalist, tasked with rescuing a lady from the hands of a group of bloodthirsty cannibals.
Guide a jungle man through multiple dangers to rescue the heroine in this 1982 Taito arcade game. One of the first side-scrolling platformers, it was the first game with a ducking mechanic. Game graphics and name were changed to "Jungle Hunt" after the Burroughs estate sued Taito for infringing upon "Tarzan" copyrights.
