Player's Review

"Get your safari gear ready-you're embarking on the most hilarious jungle adventure ever! Climb steep cliffs, dodge clobbering coconuts, and jump challenging obstacles as you try to capture that mischief-loving gorilla, Congo Bongo.
Arcade quality 3-D colour graphics, Two scrolling screen displays, One or two player jungle fun."

A cut down two screen version of Congo Bongo by Sega. This is the first release of the game in 1983. Quite low detailed compared to the second 1985 release due to the 16kb cartridge limit I imagine.

Not much to say on this as its only two screens which repeat over and over forever more until all lives are lost. As you progress though, the difficulty will go up each round topping out at level five as far as the score bonus is concerned. However I did keep playing to see if anything does change and it maybe a placebo, but I do think the game was getting faster and certainly more twitchy when it came to jumping on the second screen.
