  • I spent madd quarters on this game. The crocodiles used to mess me up. I know I was cuttin' them muthas up but they still killed me!

    The boulders used to gyp me as well. It only had like 4 boards to play so it got boring after a while.

  • Jungle Hunt was originally called Jungle King, but the estate of Edgar Rice Burroughs (creator of Tarzan) threatened to sue. The Tarzan-like character suddenly became a white hunter and the game name was changed.

  • it was tarzan dude this looks like a indiana jones dude .

  • he started with the tarzan calll huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • it was a tarzan guy ....look at the original ver..

  • WE ALL KNOW IT WAS JUNGLE KING ....

  • I always thought the final level of the cannibals was kind of lame. They should have had it where you knife the canibals quickly before she got dipped into the boiling pot. I guess that would have been politically incorrect???

  • Black chimps at 2:34 . Give them some chicken before they rape the white girl.

  • 2:38 And they fell into the cauldron for the cannibals to eat.

  • Wow! Talk about nostalga. I havent heard this music for over 25 years. I sunk so many quarters into this game. The 80,s are gone but not forgotten. Wish we had them back.

  • They need to remake this game like they did with all the other remakes, give it a longer story and play mode. Keep the music the same, but updated for the newer style. Then in the new game there could be an easter egg to access the real Arcade version. Thumbs up to this if you agree.

  • @hootyhaha

    Yes, me and my friend are starting the remake now ;) Might take some months though :)

  • So funny how he falls running up hill :) Man this game is so much better than Pitt Fall. But I guess Pitt Fall was never made for Arcades and straight to the Atari systems. That gives it a pass I guess. I like Pit Fall too, but man I miss this game.

  • @hootyhaha Just buy Taito Legends. That has it and a lot more. It has the Arcade version.

  • This game is great. However I can't get it to work =/

  • for me it was 1983 jungle king at the Thorold inn outside of niagara falls ontario during my breaks when i was playing in the band Forum.

  • I played a version that used a Tarzan-like character instead of an explorer type. Otherwise it was identical.

  • That's right - the game you're talking about is "Jungle King" - they changed it to this one when they got sued by the estate of Edgar Rice Burroughs for allegedly infringing on the Tarzan copyright

  • wow!! i am so impressed by the song in the end! by Medelhson!

  • I've played this on the "GlobalVR Arcade Classics" machine over at my local Buffalo Wild Wings... fun, but for 50 cents a shot, I'd rather play Bubble Bobble...

  • FRONTLINE FTW!!!!

  • do you get to be the girl if you finish the first playthrough? the wikipedia article doesn't mention this, though the glimpse of the playable character looks different and I swear I remember my brother telling me this was true.

  • Yes. The tables have turned! It is slightly harder, IIRC... Like she doesn't run as fast, and she gets out of breath easier in the gator section. Honestly, I forget to be honest.

  • wait where was this version at? let me know because i've heard of the "Jungle queen " hack but never saw it

  • this was a classic game for me !! I played it every chance I had .... where can I find this at ? this video game makes me feel like 1986....

  • I bought a good version of it for PS2 at Walmart about a year or so ago. The disc is called "Taito Legends", and has 29 classic arcade games on it.
