"Jambo! Safari is a good way of giving your kid something different for Christmas, and its theme makes it a very accessible game. It's also adequate for the animal lover, but more care and attention should have gone into the code to ensure it was a less buggy experience. Anyone else will unfortunately tire of the repeated challenges and clunky gameplay, and will only find excitement in its bare bones Arcade mode."
Adam and Ash join Tom this week for the usual tomfoolery. Tom and Ash are at it again, playing a game together and Adam’s managed to come across a review of a game that he’d like to share with the world.
THIS ONE IS NOT TO BE MISSED.

Just as now, things wouldn't be SEGA if there wasn't some kind of action packed gameplay mechanic thrown in there too, and thus the Jambo Safari of old (and new) had players racing around the plains of Africa whilst lassoing animals for points. Hardly Animal Hospital, but there we go."
PALGN writes: "Jambo! Safari: Ranger Adventure is based on the arcade game Jambo! Safari that was released in 1999. The arcade cabinet featured a steering wheel, a foot peddle and a gearshift, and was set in an African safari where players had to capture different animals. The Wii version has similar gameplay but expands on the original concept by including a story, missions, mini-games, customisation options and collectible items. Sadly, the end result is an unchallenging, unimaginative and a lacklustre experience."
