coin-op challenge." Jungle Hunt received a Certificate of Merit in the category of "Best Adventure Videogame" at the 5th annual Arkie Awards in January 1984. Legacy In November 1982, Taito released another version of the game in arcades as Pirate Pete with the same gameplay. The player character is now a pirate; the vines are replaced by ropes swinging from the masts of a very long ship; sharks swim the water intead of crocodiles; and sword-wielding pirates take the place of cannibals. In 1983, Milton Bradley published a board game version of Jungle Hunt where ropes are a key element. Jungle Hunt is included in the Taito Legends collection for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 2, and Xbox.
