Jungle Journey

This jungle arcade game is an enjoyable romp through the African jungle in which you have to guide the young jungle boy home whilst avoiding perils on your way. In 1974 there were reports of an eight year old boy found by soldiers in Burundi who had apparently been raised by grey monkeys in the jungle. Named "John" the boy was taken to a Burundi orphanage where he was observed to behave like a monkey, jumping up and down when excited and making monkey cries. Well, so the story goes. In reality "John" was a local boy called Balthazar who was autistic and had never lived in the wild, just his behaviour was somewhat wild! There have been, however, over the years a number of stories of children being brought up in the jungle by wild animals.
