Description

FZ-004. Rarity 2 Common+. North America NTSC. 1 player only.
Explore 255 screens of crocodiles, quicksand, traps, tar pits, rolling logs, snakes, fires and treasure. Avoid scorpions in underground caves that can be used as shortcuts. Carefully timed vine swinging is an important element of this game. You have 3 lives and 20 minuets to collect all 32 treasures for an official win. Only some hazards kill, the rest cost points. A perfect score, 114,000, is archived by getting all the treasures and not losing any points to hazards.
