Disney's The Jungle Book is a platformer created by Virgin Interactive (aka Virgin Games) based on the 1967 Disney animated film.
The team behind Aladdin (including David Bishop and programmer David Perry) was in charge of creating the game but David Perry never completed the game, he left Virgin and founded his company. The Genesis and DOS versions were then completed by Eurocom, while the Mega Drive and Game Gear versions were made by Syrox.
Despite this, the game is still well made and really enoyable, though it can't be considered a masterpiece like Disney's Aladdin.
The plot is based on the movie, with Mowgli, hunted by the tiger Shere Khan, trying to reach the human village. He will have to avoid all the perils of the jungle but during the journey he will be helped by Bagheera and Baloo.
Great animations and humour makes the game a must have for all Disney fans.
