Tusker begins with your character's father disappearing while searching for the mysterious Elephant's Graveyard in Africa. You take on his quest, determined to uncover what happened to him and the secrets that lie within.
The game is divided into three stages, each set in a unique environment: the harsh desert, underground caves, and a treacherous tribal jungle. The locals are hostile towards you, so finding suitable weapons to defend yourself is crucial. Additionally, a machete proves essential for navigating through dense jungle terrain. Throughout the journey, you'll need to utilize objects found along the way to overcome obstacles.
