Description:

There's an entire jungle full of fun waiting! This CD-ROM is based on the Disney movie and does an excellent job of capturing the joyful spirit of Tarzan and his friends. You'll find arcade games, karaoke music/music videos, a music maker, and print components. The Professor has a map all laid out and kids will enjoy each of the adventures.

Features:

  • Over 65 levels of arcade action!
  • Create jungle songs with music and words.
  • Print secret decoder cards, animal fact cards, more.
  • Try to outwit the baby baboon in a memory game with a twist!
  • Write in the Jungle Journal and use animal language or secret code.

Technical Aspects:

We ran this program on our AMD 333Mhz with 24M RAM under Windows 98 and experienced no problems. The graphics all ran smoothly and the audio was fine. This title is also Windows 95 compatible. It's amazing how the CD-ROM can bring the movie to life.

Report and Conclusions:

My kids always like arcade games, and this program presents some old favorites with new twists. For example, the memory game uses fruits to turn over the cards and the baboon baby may mix them all up in the midst of the game! These were fun and have challenging levels as you progress through them.

Our favorite was 'Trash the Camp' - the sound effects are great! We helped Terk and friends trash the camp with a vengeance and loved every minute.

If you can't tell whether your child will enjoy this program, take a good look at the box. It's an excellent representation of what this title is really like. There's a lot of fun packed into this jungle and kids who love the movie will go ape over it!
