Jill of the Jungle follows the basic premise of the many platform games released in the early 1990s era of gaming, including Duke Nukem and Commander Keen. Jill (of the Jungle) must make her way through the jungle, defeating various monsters and collecting keys to open up new areas. Unusually, the game does not contain any boss fights, but focuses instead on puzzle games.
