Plot
Taking place in 1949, the game is a pastiche of adventure serials and pulp magazines of the time.
The player assumes the role of Joe King, pilot for hire and owner of the Amazon Queen airplane, who crash-lands in the Amazon jungle and subsequently has to save not only his passenger, the famous movie star Faye Russel, but also an entire tribe of Amazon women and even the world from a mad scientist and his lederhosen company, who have concocted a vile scheme to turn Amazons into Dinosaur warriors using his DinoRay invention.
The game includes multiple allusions to the Indiana Jones games, for example images of their main character and his fear of snakes.
