Taito and ITL ported the game to both the Family Computer and PC-Engine in 1990, both of which remained exclusive to Japan.

The gameplay has been often compared to Taito's earlier platform games, specifically Bubble Bobble and The NewZealand Story.

The player(s) control two lumberjacks, Bob and Jim, on their quest to save the princess and king of Marry Land.

Throughout the game, various power-ups can be collected, which represent potions, hammers, or books, help the players' character speed up, receive more power, or kill in different ways.

Game Machine listed it as the twelfth most-successful table arcade unit of the month in their August 15, 1989 issue.
