A great arcade romp packed with great graphics and addictive gameplay. Read Review
A colourful and highly playable game that is heavy on entertainment and light on price. Go on - buy CJ and save the elephants. Read Review
Simple, cute, clean and cliched fun, and certainly worth its bob or two. Read Review
CJ's cartoon caper across the world - Climb the Eiffel Tower, duel the Hunchback, discover the Yeti, Pharoah's Lost Tomb and Sphinx, mysterious jungle mazes, safari wildlife, active volcanoes and more... incredible international action!
Starring CJ the Elephant
Somewhere over France, an aeroplane carries CJ the Elephant captured and boxed ready for a zoo in England... until suddenly turbulance hits the plane and his cage bursts open!
Grabbing a neary umbrella, CJ jumps out and begins his long trek across foreign lands to reach his family back in deepest Africa!
Real two-player option.
CJ must reach the exit at the end of each level, where a large foe will challenge him. He can jump using the umbrella to break his fall, and fire peanuts using his trunk or throw bombs at anything in his way. Eating cakes and bananas will keep CJ in tip-top condition. Invincibility pills will make him immune for a while.
Some of the "wildlife" CJ will encounter:
Frogs | leap into trouble |
Snails | a hard exterior |
Police | march on patrol |
Clouds | strike lightning |
Penguins | skip and hop |
Snowmen | throw snowballs |
Mummys | deathly trail |
Egyptians | throw spears |
Cannibals | throw rocks |
Monkeys | throw coconuts |
Lions | kings of the jungle |
Left - Move left, Right - Move right, Up - Jump up, Down - Drop bomb, Fire - Throw peanut
