The Apeman Strikes Again is a blatant Donkey Kong clone where the Apeman says "He is coming for you!" whenever the player completes a level.

Unused Graphics and Tiles

To do: Find some unused graphics and files.

A square graphic, this has no purpose. None of them appear in any stage in the game.

A sprite when the ape looks at the right, there's no instances where the ape turns his head.

The letters K, Q, X and Z are in the ROM, but they are never used. However, the letters X and Z are used in Il Gorilla Ci Riprova.

Unused	Used

There's four unused sprites for the princess. They were supposed to be animation for the princess getting carried by the Apeman, but the non-animated was used instead.

There's some five sprites that looks like a baby version of the ape. So by combining it and animated it, you will get this.

Regional Differences

There's little differences in the Italian version and the international version.
