Title: Help me remember this game...
Post by: largemann on June 20, 2005, 02:15:33 am
First of all, I hope this is the right forum for this.

Okay, so when I was a little boy, there was a cocktail cabinet at a local restaurant, which my brother and I used to pump way too many quarters into.

So today I'm sitting here talking to my brother about it, and neither of us can remember the name of the game.

What I do remember:

It's a platform game, with a vertical orientation
It was set in the jungle, I think
You're a monkey gorilla chimpanzee primate.  :)
At some point in the game, you can get a football helmet to wear

And that's about all I can remember. :(

Please help me remember! I want to revisit my childhood.  :laugh:

Glad to be of service! In fact I used to have it on my Amiga 500+. I played it alot back then so I instantly knew what you were on about, especially when you mentioned the football helmet!  ;)

:laugh: It's funny because my brother had no idea what game I was talking about until I mentioned the football helmet.

Heh, looks like I was wrong about the vertical resolution too. I guess I assumed it was because it was in a cocktail. Whoops. ;)
