His father, a renowned scientist, is enlisted by the government, setting the stage for Jonny's jungle expedition. Gameplay blends exploration, puzzle-solving, and combat. Players navigate through dense jungle and ancient temples, collecting useful items and engaging in basic dialogue with locals, which occasionally leads to side quests. If Jonny is captured, Bandit aids in escape, utilizing a simple inventory system that allows item interaction. [4]

Reception

PC Review said "On the positive side, the beat ‘em up and submission elements provide a little variety from the exploration, and some of the puzzles will stretch your imagination. However, if you’re looking for an innovative, gripping arcade adventure with plenty of depth, this isn’t it" [4]
