Game description:
Baby Roo has been kidnapped by monkeys, and it's up to Mama Roo to come to the rescue! Your kangaroo starts out at the bottom of the screen. You need to guide the kangaroo up the various ladders and platforms to the top where Baby Roo is being held captive. The monkeys will be trying to stop you by throwing or dropping apples and knocking you off the platforms. Your kangaroo has boxing gloves, however, and can knock out the monkeys with a single punch! Along the way various types of fruit can be collected to earn bonus points.
What I think:
In my opinion it is not as bad as some people say it is, but I can see where they are coming from...
The enemies are flickering, the hoping sound is annoyingly awful and awfully annoying and if you try to jump on a platform that is 1 pixel beneath you will die (which logically doesn't make any sense!).
But still, it is playable...so overall I would say it is an okay game.
