Hey all, I'm a fledgling to the board. I've been looking for a forum that focuses on arcade games for awhile now. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone here could help me put a name to a particular arcade game I played many, many, MANY years ago when I was a teenager (I'm 30 now). You are a monkey (no, its not Donkey Kong haha), and you either --- if my memory serves me right --- spit or throw coconuts/rocks (?) at your enemies. I remember the first level was a jungle, and later on there was a level where you ride on a mine cart (which was probably a rip on DK) and have to avoid electricity lines. One of the level bosses was this airship/chopper sort of thing, being piloted by creatures (I can't remember if they are monkeys like you, or something else). For the life of me I can't remember the game's title, but I do remember something like: "Jub Jub" or "Jib Jib" --- something like that. However, I've tried all kinds of variations of that type of name in Google and haven't found squat. I hope you guys can help. Thanks.

Sounds a lot like Toki:

That's exactly it! Thank you.

You're welcome. Have fun!

Toki was a great game. I remember playing it when I was younger too! You gave a very accurate description of it and I'm happy that someone was able to help you out!
