Description
(This is a completely different game from the Atari Games/Tengen coin-op and it's licensees.)
You must prove you manhood by running a gauntlet of arrows, tomahawks, and rocks to reach the ceremonial torches and extinguish them. You have three water jugs to extinguish the three torches. If you successfully extinguish one you'll get a bonus water refill. You can optionally duck under arrows and leap over rocks. You can optionally give water to the thirsty old hermit for bonus points. The game autoscrolls vertically.
