The flashing key at the top of the jungle next to Mario can free Papa. But mean Mario sends Snapjaw after Snapjaw to stop Junior! Guide the little ape across the screen to the right and up.

Once Junior captures the key, he faces another challenge: he must push three keys to the tops of chains to free his Papa. But this is no easy feat! The keys are so heavy that Junior must climb up two chains instead of one. But that's not all. Snapjaws still chase Junior-both on the chains and on the ground! And Nitpicker birds fly across the ground, trying to catch him. Poor Junior! Mario's Hideout! After Junior has pushed all the keys up the chains, he enters Mario's horrible hideout. Now he has to dash across coils and climb more vines to reach the top hanging vine. But Junior's foes - the Snapjaws - still keep up their chase. Jump over the snapjaws and keep moving up and across. That's the only way to free Papa! One more time The farther Junior gets, the wilder the action becomes! The missions repeat, but they keep getting harder.
