Jill of the Jungle is a platform adventure game where you play Jill, queen of the jungle. This game is the first of a trilogy. Like other game developed by Tim Sweeney, there isn't much of a story, but the game remains interesting due to the mechanics and puzzles. Jill has the ability to run, jump, climb, and throw weapons, as well as the ability to transform into animals by touching magical statues. Each animal has its own special abilities.

Jill of the Jungle: The Complete Trilogy (DOS) redirects here. It comes bundled with Jill of the Jungle (DOS), Jill Goes Underground (DOS) and Jill Saves The Prince (DOS).
