This game is exactly the same as Jungle King except the player character is a jungle explorer clad in a pith-helmet and safari jacket instead of the Tarzan character, the life-lines he swings on between the trees in the forest are ropes instead of vines, and an opening musical theme is played at certain parts of the game instead of the opening Tarzan yell.
The game play is exactly the same as Jungle King.

This game was released after Taito was threatened by a suit filed against them by the trustees of Edgar Rice Burroughs' estate, the people who own the rights to Tarzan, for copyright infringement for using Tarzan's likeness in Jungle King. Later, Taito released Pirate Pete which was basically a sea-going imitation of both of these two games.
