Overall - 8.5

Jungle Hunt on the Atari 2600 is an interesting game for this console game. The game looks fun and it plays well. The game is kind of like Donkey Kong on the NES, where it changes the level. There were some confusion when playing this for the first time, but after getting used to it, the game was understandable. I guarantee that you will like this game.

Graphics - 8

The graphics were well-made. The levels were a bit okay. The only issue was that there was some color on the ropes on the swinging game, but it did not bother the game play.

Sound - 8

The sound was good. It was a bit annoying with the action noises going off. The game should have a background song. Other than that, it is okay.

Addictiveness - 7

The game is a little addicting. I would not say that I would play it every day, but for every week, that might be true.

Story - N/A

There is no story in this game.

Depth - 6

There was not much to offer. There was a few levels that made you do different things. For example, there is a level that has to do with swinging from one vine to another, another level that has to do with swimming and avoid getting hit by the alligators. For some reason, you can punch them, but it is hard to do so. I do not know why, it just is. There is one that has to do with dodging balls by jumping or going under them. And lastly, I think, is having to do with beating a skeleton. I am not sure how to do it, but that is what it is. What confuses me is that it does not tell you when the levels will start switching. You will know what I mean. Other than that, the game plays fair.

Difficulty - 4

The game is not that hard. The only thing that is hard about this game is the alligator level and the skeleton level. In the alligator level, like I said, it is hard to punch the alligators. Other than that, the rest are just very simple.

Wrap Things Up...

Jungle Hunt is an okay game to play. I would recommend trying this game out if you have not already. It is a pretty decent game to play on the Atari 2600.
