THE STORY SO FAR
Some time ago, the Professor developed an ingenious invention known as the "Monkey Helmet," also known as the "Peak Point Helmet," a device that boosts intelligence when worn by any primate. Unfortunately, the added aptitude provided by the Monkey Helmet went straight to the head of Specter, the most popular monkey in Monkey Park, and he led an army of time-traveling monkeys on a crusade to change the course of history. A frantic chase through the ages followed, but luckily, all of the monkeys were rounded up before any real damage was done. JIMMY'S MISTAKE
The Professor is currently on vacation, and while he is away he has asked Jimmy, a lively young helper, to pack some fresh, clean Monkey Pants over to Monkey Park. But alas! Jimmy accidentally sends a shipment of the troublesome Monkey Helmets along with the pants! So, once again, Specter puts on a Monkey Helmet - and we know what that means another daring attempt to take over the planet! He spreads his monkey troops around the globe and orders them to wait for further instructions. Help Jimmy, along with his faithful partner Pipotchi, to make up for his mistake by catching the pesky monkeys before it's too late! GETTING STARTED
