Guide Monty through a journey of half of Europe, picking up valuables, and finding tickets to travel quicker between airports.
Monty must collect enough money to fill the icon of the Greek island of “Montos” at the bottom of the screen. Once the picture of the island is fully visible, Monty can escape to Montos and evade his pursuers!
Collect 18,000 money by finding different items throughout the different countries. Monty can bring certain items to different countries in order to convert them to more money.
Monty faces a wide variety of enemies throughout Europe, taking on different appearances. Most enemies move along a pre-defined path - if Monty touches an enemy, he will lose a life.
Monty can travel around the map faster by using the network of airports on the map. In order to use an airport, Monty must have a ticket. Tickets can be found throughout the map, each allowing a single use of an airport.
When Monty travels from one airport to another, a minigame takes place with Monty in control of an aeroplane. Move the aeroplane using the movement keys, and ’nibble’ the back of other aeroplanes on the screen to gain bonus points.
Look for vines, chains, and ladders and position Monty a short distance from them or directly over them. Jump, and Monty will begin climbing. Move upwards to climb further.
Monty can jump to a platform above him up to three tiles away, fall from any height without taking damage, and can use certain objects to move in different ways:
A number of visually different tiles give Monty the ability to build up momentum for a much higher jump. When jumping on a trampoline tile, Monty will make several jumps in a row with an increasing jump height.
Monty can use tickets at airports through the different countries he visits - move next to an airport, and press the Interact with object button to use the airport. Using an airport will initiate a small minigame, placing Monty in an aeroplane. Monty can hit the back of other aeroplanes to slowly damage them, accumulating points when destroying the plane.
Various special objects can be found by Monty throughout the map. Taking these objects to different countries allows Monty to convert them to cash:
