River Rescue The aim is to rescue explorers lost in the jungle.
The player guides a boat along a river, which scrolls from right to left across the screen. The river and boat are viewed from above. The boat must avoid colliding with various floating hazards in the river - these objects include crocodiles and canoes. After a while, an SOS call in morse code is received and soon a jetty comes into view. The boat must dock with this jetty and a lost explorer will walk aboard. There are three explorers to rescue. Once the round is complete, the game starts again, faster. [source:wikipedia]
