While you jump through the landscapes you collect coins, items and extra lives. You have to swing with Liana over abysses, attack, jump and climb over branches of trees.

With the combination of spingen and the attack button you use your special attack for the attack. Most opponents go down after an attack. Some ninjas require 3 hits, while the nephews sent into the field require 10-13 hits from the opponent. Graphically, the figures look a bit small. They look like a cartoon and are well animated. The backgrounds are also well represented graphically. The sound, in contrast, is not so nice to hear.
