Tarzan was a great movie, and not bad as a video game. It's got great animation and richly detailed graphics, but firing weapons is slow and clumsy. By the time you pull out your arsenal of fruit to throw at jungle beasts, they've already hit you a few times. It's a bit repetitive, but faithfully follows the plot of the movie.

The single-player platform game follows the recently released animated film's plot exactly, and that's a very good thing, as the movie's pacing is conducive to the challenges you expect from a video game. Actually, what Tarzan captures, surprisingly, is the simplicity (with challenge) found in classic games.

Description of Disney's Tarzan WindowsRead Full Review
While Disney's animated adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Tarzan of the Apes may have failed to capture the magic that made it one of the greatest novels of the 20th century, the video game adaptation of the Disney movie offers a more-than-serviceable action platforming experience.
Run through the jungle, collecting tokens and fruit while avoiding enemies—in this regard, Disney's Tarzan is very similar to the Donkey Kong Country games. Though Disney's Tarzan is fully 3-D rendered, and there are some curling and curving side paths, Tarzan is a fairly linear 2-D platformer. And that's OK! You can race your way through the fairly lengthy levels, jumping through trees and swinging from vines quickly, or you might take a leisurely (or thorough) approach, finding all of the items and secrets each level has to offer.
While Donkey Kong Country's jungle runs may be brutal and unforgiving, Tarzan puts a greater onus on level length than deathtraps and dirty tricks to stretch out its playtime. To be certain, there are some hard spots, but it's difficulty rarely feels “unfair”--for instance, nothing in Tarzan is comparable to The Lion King's nightmarish “Can't Wait To Be King” level.
Everything in the game is brightly-colored and well rendered; much of the CG looks almost animation-quality. It's definitely no shovel-ware. There are a few qualms I have with this one, though. You'll get tired of hearing Tarzan's beast-cry (especially young Tarzan's beast-cry) very quickly. Also, since many of the enemies weave in and out of the 2-D path, it can be hard sometimes to tell when one of the enemies is actually in your hit-plane. And the lemur's.. Having actually worked with ring-tailed lemurs, I can tell you that they're less dangerous than cats. The notion that Tarzan, who tore apart lions with his bare hands, fought against the agents of Stalin, and led a crack team of African riflemen against the dinosaur-riding serpent men of the inner earth, could be hurt by a ring-tailed lemur is laughable!
Still, Disney's Tarzan is a good game, and considering how hard pressed I am to think of any other Edgar Rice Burroughs-based video games off the top of my head, that's not bad! Disney's Tarzan was developed by the same team which had earlier created a similar game based on the Disney Hercules film.

For people asking about the music, on RIP files, the music and videos are never saved. That is one of the reasons why the file is smaller than the iso-file.

Hey Admin! I want to ask something. Is there any difference If we play a game using with ISO Image or RIP or any other. I'm asking this because I want to know about Save Files. You know Game Save Files usually placed in My Documents but some have other locations. I remembered I played a game using with ISO image, When I play with ISO image the game save file creates in different location and then when I play that same by Installing that with Setup (Installer) then that Save File was created in different location? Can anyone tell me difference? I really needs to understand this.. Sorry for bad English.

These games are mostly ports from consoles from back in the day. It would therefore be better to emulate a PS1 version of this game. Just google it. You welcome :)

Disney's Tarzan (also known as Tarzan Action Game) is an actionplatformer video game developed by Eurocom and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation in 1999 based on the Disney animated film Tarzan. Konami published the game for its Japanese release. It was also released for PC systems in 1999 and for the Nintendo 64 in 2000. A variant of the game for the Game Boy Color was developed by Digital Eclipse and released in 1999.[1]
Plot[edit]
The player takes control of the eponymous Tarzan, an orphan child who was adopted and raised by gorillas. At the beginning of the game Tarzan is still a young kid who has to learn different skills from the gorillas such as climbing trees, swinging down branches or fighting small but aggressive wild animals. He eventually grows up to be a strong and skilled man who must defend his and his fellow animal brothers' home, the jungle, from hunters led by the evil Clayton.
Gameplay[edit]
Disney’s Tarzan is a 2.5D side-scrolling platformer, with gameplay taking place on a two-dimensional plane but featuring three-dimensional models and environments. The player controls the eponymous character of Tarzan, both as a child and as an adult, though 14 different levels.[2] Along with running and jumping through levels, Tarzan is able to slam the ground in order to break open certain objects, as well as revealing hidden items and secret areas. Tarzan's main method of attacking enemies is by throwing assorted fruits, which can be thrown both overhand and underhand for varying throwing distances and come in 4 different levels of power marked by their colors. A knife can also be found in certain levels and used as a close-combat weapon, and certain other weapons, such as a spear and a parasol, are exclusively used in specific levels.[3] Tarzan's health status is represented by a life bar that depletes as he is harmed by enemies and other hazards. The health bar can be refilled by collecting bananas, which are hidden in banana trees and other areas throughout levels.[3]
Levels feature several different collectible items, such as coins that earn the player an extra life when 100 of them are collected, and four pieces of a pencil sketch which are hidden throughout the level and unlock a bonus level when collected. Scenes from the game's respective film can be unlocked by locating 6 letters (T-A-R-Z-A-N) in each level.[3]
The game has three difficulty levels: easy, medium and hard. In the easy and medium difficulties, little Tarzan gets tips from his friend Terk. Tarzan's enemies are monkeys, baboons, eagles, and different animals such as snakes and bushpigs, and some humans such as Clayton.
Development[edit]
The Game Boy Color version of Disney's Tarzan was developed by Digital Eclipse, who had previously developed several ports of older games including Klax, Joust and Paperboy. It was Digital Eclipse's first completely original video game which they had developed and designed from scratch, as their previous efforts had all been ports of other games. The game's development team was given 3 months to develop the game, and consisted of two programmers, ten artists and three level designers.[1] According to the game's technical director, Mike Mika, the initial design concept for the game was “quite ambitious,” with several gameplay mechanics needing to be nixed due to time constraints. According to Mika, the team wanted to include gameplay objectives which were given to the player by talking to and interacting with non-playable characters, and had concepts for several mechanics which went unincorporated, such as levels which involved riding on top of birds and levels that featured Tantor the elephant as a playable character.[1]
Reception[edit]
Disney's Tarzan received positive reviews upon its release, with critics praising the game's graphics and its faithfulness towards the film's story.[31]
Rick Sanchez reviewed the PlayStation version of the game for Next Generation, rating it two stars out of five, and stated that 'Tarzan is a solid, if uninspired, title that gets by mostly on its looks. Serious gamers won't find much of value, but it might appeal to the kiddie set flocking to the film.'[21]
The PlayStation version of Disney's Tarzan received a 'Gold' sales award from the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association (ELSPA),[32] indicating sales of at least 200,000 copies in the United Kingdom.[33] Autodesk 3ds max 2015 essentials pdf free download.
