Tarzan Games Online
Most of our images of Tarzan are inspired by the Disney and other movie series, however he first appeared in 1914 in the novel 'Tarzan of the Apes' which followed the story of John Clayton whose parents died shortly after being marooned in Africa; his mother of natural causes but his father at the hands of the ape leader Kerchak who went on to raise the infant child. Living in the wild, and adopting the ape name Tarzan, the boy developed sporting skills and abilities far in excess of humans raised in towns and cities and could also communicate with many of the jungle animals with whom he co-habited. Tarzan has featured in some twenty-two novels by his original author Edgar Rice Burroughs as well as books by other novelists together with films, TV series and comic strips, and, of course, in games as well. |
