Player[edit]
You control the player on his mission to restore peace and order to his prehistoric time period. He'll have to cross through jungles, deserts, and swamps in order to calm the many beasts that wreak havoc in each area. He can move in eight directions, and travel almost anywhere on the visible screen. He can jump in the air and over gaps. The player can take a number of hits from enemies, or their bullets, equal to the number of hearts that he has showing in the upper left corner of the screen. If he runs out of hearts, or if he falls off a ledge or in quicksand, he will lose a life. If he loses all of his lives the game is over. The player begins with the ability to throw two short-range stones across the screen at one time. By collecting power-up tiles, he can upgrade the strength and effectiveness of his attack. If he can uncover the hidden Riki tile, he will power up to the size of a hulking wrestler, with the ability to attack by projecting images of himself at the enemy.
Items[edit]
All items must be shot to be uncovered. The first five items can be found by shooting various objects throughout each stage, such as flowers or skulls. The last three must also be shot, buy their locations are secret and not marked by an object.
