Ape Escape

Description

Lots of monkeys have escaped, and you must catch them. In Ape Escape, your goal is to use cool gadgets to catch monkeys. The game requires an analog controller, since, unlike most games, you actually use both analog sticks.

Gadgets include a light saber like sword, and net, for catching monkeys of course, an RC car, and a helicopter device that lets you fly really high.

You can also sneak up on the monkeys, or just chase them and use various techniques like stunning them with your light saber and then quickly nabbing them with your sword.

Its played in a 3D environment.

Trivia

All of the primates in the game have a unique personality and name, and some of those are actually quite funny. For example, there's an ape named "Indiana" hiding in a temple, "Darwin" is in a room full of computers, "Elvis" is found on a throne in a castle, "Mulder" is flying an UFO, and so on.
