This game APPEARED to be a great re-make of a classic until I discovered one VERY important change.

The bonus levels on the Jaguar version were one of the highlights of the game but here they have cocked it up…BIGTIME.

Whereas before you needed just 3 tokens and only 5 powerups to get those tokens, you could in essence get to a bonus level in very little time, which was great as it gave incentive to play on.

In this version, you need 7 powerups to get a token AND you need 6 tokens to get there.
Thats 42 powerups and 7 levels MINIMUM to get them.

This is REALLY poor on the developers part and who evers idea it was should hold their head in shame and change it back to the original ASAP.

I will NEVER play this game again due to this SERIOUSLY BAD embellishment to the jaguar version.

VERY POOR INDEED!

A disappointing lack of giraffes, I notice.
