Wasn't sure if I had this game as a kid, looking up footage I'm fairly sure I did. I would never make it far into the game and would end up repeating the "child Tarzan" levels a lot.
There is a chance I had a demo disc that just had the child levels, but I think I was just generally bad and never made it far into the game as a kid. As I would replay them levels a lot, probably due to a futile determination to see the rest of the game.

I loved this when I was a kid like 15 years ago. Nowadays it really seems terrible but back then whas an amazing experience when personal computer wasn't such a common thing and no many games where known. I could spend hours. Recently I've seen a gameplay of this and I don't know how I've been capable of enjoying so much such a terrible image quality besides other stuff. The rating of this game is made exclusively based on the good memories.
Increíble juego de plataformas que nos va llevando por la película. En él jugaremos con Tarzan cuando era un niño pero también cuando se vuelve adulto. En algunos niveles también controlaremos a Jane, Terk y Tantor.
Esta siempre fue mi película favorita de Disney así que este juego me iba a encantar de todas formas.

This Tarzan game just falls below bar of where this game should be. The Story is the same as the movie, which is good. The Characters are the same too, except for the voice acting of Professor Porter, which sounds nothing alike and is very distracting during cutscenes, which themselves are good for PS1 game, movie clips. The Graphics work fine for a PS1 kids' game, but don't
The Gameplay is mostly good, you go around throwing berries at enemies, well collecting coins, gourds and letters of Tarzan's name. This can be fun, moving around flows well and makes it enjoyable to travel through the stages, but it does feel odd that Berrie throwing is the main attack in this game, it's not a plot hole, but you'd think it would be a spear or a kind of sharp weapon like that, or even not having a weapon feels more like you're playing as Tarzan than Berrie throwing, even with the berries acting as different kinds of weapons, they doesn't change much, also throwing berries is hard in 3D sine the aim is a bit stiff, and why are you attacking the animals, you're not supposed to be attacking each other, even on the final level, the animals don't harm Clayton who's trying to kill or capture the animals, but they do attack you, THAT confusing idea makes it hard to call this game good when it doesn't make sense for the story this game was based on. The Knife also is less effective on the animals than the berries. WHY. The Music is alright during remixes of the film's songs and the normal tracks, nothing great, nothing you can call bad sounding. Tarzan on the PS1 is one of the closest to being good games I have ever played, and it's a shame it had to come to this.
