Bio Force Ape

Overview

Bio Force Ape is an unreleased NES title that was in development at SETA before its cancellation. The game is an action platformer that puts the player in the role of a primate infused with power that makes him more humanoid and imparts him with superhuman strength. It was profiled in a preview article in the the August 1991 issue of Nintendo Power, but it was subsequently announced that the game was cancelled in the April 1992 issue.

After its cancellation, the game vanished for close to two decades, though fake ROMs that pranksters claimed were the actual game did enter circulation through the internet. However, a copy of the real game, or rather, a functional prerelease build, surfaced in 2010.
