Product description

Product Information
Released in conjunction with the 2001 cinematic remake, PLANET OF THE APES, the game actually takes its plot from the 1968 original film. Play as Ulysses (the character that Charlton Heston originated), a human who has fallen to a post-apocalyptic Earth ruled by primates. Ulysses quickly discovers that he is being considered a sort of messiah by many of the apes (he's considered an enemy by others), and it is becoming readily apparent that the creatures want him to save them from the dangers of this new world. The game is packed with puzzles to solve, and the graphics are among the best ever created for the PlayStation. Modes of play include: Normal, in which Ulysses walks from location to location; Athletic, in which the hero runs and jumps through each level of the story; and Stealth, which requires Ulysses to crawl and slink into hidden areas not accessible in other modes. It's not easy to compare PLANET OF THE APES to any other video game, and that's really its charm.

Back to Monkey Planet

Created: 23/06/07
In this game, you are Ulysses, an astronaut whose ship crashes on a foreign, yet seemingly familiar planet. Not long after crashing, you are hunted down by gorillas and put in a prison. Your mission is to escape and find out exactly what is the secret of the planet of the apes. The game is more like the original PLANET OF THE APES movie than the Tim Burton remake, (though the apes look more like Burton's apes)

I really enjoyed playing the game. I found the story interesting and wasn't phased at all by the "outdated" graphics. The game does only let you save after completing a level. However, though I found this feature rather frustrating at times, it also made the game more challenging and difficult to beat. This isn't a blow-em-up action game. Instead, it is more of a physical boxing match interspaced with various quests.

Recommended for basic gamers and any fans of Planet of the Apes.
