Jungle Party is designed in a way that kids would be able to play it.[4] Up to 4 people can play all the 40 mini-games,[5] with Liz Barker as a narrator.[6] Some of them include skydiving, color matching, stealing an ostrich's egg and shooting balloons.[4] Each game has a specific objective, with maximum points given by completing twenty of those in one round.[7]
Every player can pick their own colored monkey, either blue, orange, green or yellow, and controls them using their Buzz! Buzzer. Each controller has four colored buttons with a red buzzer on top.[8] Some games simply use the Buzz! button, while others use the four colored buttons. In addition, there is a single-player mode which features customized versions of the multi-player games.[9] After playing through ten games, a final score will be given (out of 80,000 overall) with a ranking on the leaderboard.
