Gameplay
Gameplay
This game is similar to Rick Dangerous 2, another Core Design game. It features the cape-clad superhero Monty Mole who is recruited by aliens to retrieve their sacred scrolls. As in Rick Dangerous 2, the first four levels may be played in any order. Completing these four levels (the Orient, Klondike mines, Ice and Amazon forest) unlocks the fifth and final level. The game's level themes are similar to Rick Dangerous 2. The player progresses horizontally as well as climbing up ladders. Monty Mole is equipped with weapons and is able to do a flying kick to defend himself against enemy creatures lurking about.
