| While the title might stir up memories about gory 80's 1-on-1 fighting games, the platformer is actually one of the more blatant examples of Asian Donkey Kong Country exploitation. But of course, the ape who jumps through all kinds of standard platformer setpiece environments with awkward controls is totally not a gorilla at all, the game's lore rather depicts him as a primitive ancestor to man (hence the mistranslation "Barbarian"). The prerendered graphics couldn't look any more hideous (except for the awesome rubber look of the firebreathing two-headed dinosaur boss), with the cutscenes in-between stages, which show the protagonist doing all kinds of ridiculous anachronistic stuff, taking the cake. |
