The planet of Idznak is counting on you - will you be able to overcome the beastly Skullmonkeys and destroy Kogg before it's too late?Īrmed with a killer butt and a boatload of bizarre weapons, you're Klaymen, the last clay action hero. Ma Birds can be utilized as checkpoints, the Halo will protect the protagonist from any damage, and the Super Willie will collect every pickup item on the screen. When one hundred Orange Balls are collected, Klayman will earn an extra life. There are also various pickup items to utilize. One false move can halt Klayman's mission forever, so be careful! Each level is chock full of free-roaming platforms, instant death traps and pits, and the requirement of precision jumping. Like all titles in the genre, the main focus is on the platforming element. Destroying the simians can be done one of two ways: firing projectile weapons or butt-bouncing off their heads. Throughout the game's seven worlds spanning ninety levels, the basic objective of each is to destroy as many Skullmonkeys as possible. Much like The Neverhood, Skullmonkeys is a 2D platformer built entirely of Claymation characters, enemies, and environments. Needless to say, it is up to the player to stop Kogg and his devious plans. Because the task can get difficult at times, he has enlisted the service of fearsome ape-like creatures, Skullmonkeys, to aid in the destruction of planet Idznak. Something has gone seriously wrong in Klayman's homeland - Kogg, an evil megalomaniac, wants to destroy the land and basically rule over anything and everyone.

The original featured a traditional 2D side-scrolling adventure filled with free roaming platforms and lots of clay animation - this pseudo-sequel offers the same sort of action with certain modifications.

Fresh from his adventures in The Neverhood studio's first platforming title (The Neverhood), Klayman is back for an all-new adventure.
