Tarzan: Return to the Jungle (GBA) — Vines, Villains, and Banana-Peel Physics

Return to the Jungle is classic side-scrolling chaos with a loincloth: swing on vines like you paid the deposit, wall-kick through ruins, and bonk wildlife with jungle-grade confidence. Levels sprawl with secrets, alternate routes, and “that jump looked legal” platforming—clean, punchy, and just tricky enough to make victory feel earned. If you’re padding the handheld shelf and planning to buy retro games on Retro Games eXchange, this is the pocket adventure that turns five spare minutes into a safari.
