Description from the packaging.

Navigate a river boat through the jungle!

Three intrepid explorers are lost in the jungle. As Captain of a powerful river boat, you hope to claim the reward offered for their rescue.

Navigating one of the wildest and most hazardous rivers in the world is not easy, but speed is essential as there are others on the trail.

As you avoid or shoot the obstacles in this winding river, listen for signals from the explorers' weak radio transmitter, telling you that you are close to your goal.

Rescue all three explorers and take them to the jungle hospital to get your bonus.

This arcade-style game features a rolling river with full joystick or keyboard control and a free life at 7,000 points.
