Full Rules

This game is about the rollovers, 5 in an arc along each side of the game. They advance your bonus. Once the bonus is maxed out at 10000, the rollovers are worth 1000 each.

Going through the left side lane or left return lane turns on the kickback in the left outlane; going through the ride side lane or right return lane opens the gate at the right outlane.

Bonus is doubled on the last ball and cannot be doubled on other balls.

Trivia note: while the game is clearly based on Tarzan, the comedic tone of the game artwork is more like the 1967 TV cartoon, "George of the Jungle” (“watch out for that tree\!\!\!”). It was silly but very entertaining, created by the same team that did Rocky and Bullwinkle (if some of the characters’ voices sound familiar, that’s why).

Playfield Risk

The returns or rebounds from all shots are irregular and risky - side rollover arcs, center bumper, stand-up targets and the two side lanes. It will all depend on ball speed, angle and how smooth the roll is. Look for patterns and adapt accordingly.
