Chuck Rock is your typical average caveman. He likes to spend his Sunday afternoons watching football and drinking beer. Unfortunately, his peaceful existence is interrupted one day when his wife, Ophelia Rock, is kidnapped by the village weirdo, Gary Gritter. So, Chuck is rather upset about this whole situation and you have to help him make things right.
The game is a side-scrolling platformer where Chuck Rock fights a variety of dinosaurs using his belly-buster attack and a jump kick. Occasionally he has to pick up and throw rocks to defeat enemies and allow himself to jump to greater heights.

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
*Chuck's Gonna Get You, Gary Gritter!* is a prehistoric side-scrolling platformer where players control the caveman Chuck Rock on a quest to rescue his kidnapped wife, Ophelia, from his rival, Gary Gritter. To save her, players must navigate five distinct, hazard-filled prehistoric environments—ranging from volcanic caves to icy landscapes—by kicking, belly-butting, and utilizing local wildlife to defeat enemies and overcome bosses.
Story
Chuck's Gonna Get You, Gary Gritter!
Back when men were cavemen and women had names like Ophelia, Chuck Rock was one and his wife was Ophelia. Their matrimonial bliss was complete. Strong of jaw and big of belly, Chuck was a prosperous, upwardly mobile hunter-gatherer, and the fair Ophelia was a swell little cavemaker.
One dark day, Chuck returned from flinging gravel at migrating pterodactyls to find Ophelia vanished. She had been kidnapped by none other than Chuck's former rival for Ophelia's affections, the nefarious Gary Gritter.
Now, Chuck has got a bone to pick with Gary. In seeking his revenge and his wife, Chuck will have to kick and belly-butt his way through five challenging stages of play, with big bad bosses at the end of the lines.
The Law of the Jungle
•
Five levels.
•
This is pretty straightforward stuff to help you get familiar with Chuck, his basic moves, and the way things generally work.
•
Chuck can use the alligators to catapult himself by walking on one end and dumping a rock on the other.
•
The boss is a big green triceratops with a white band-aid on its butt.
If You Can't Take the Heat, Get Out of the Volcano
•
Four levels.
•
The guts of this fiery mountain are vast, so jump on the elevators to get around.
•
Chuck sometimes freezes in this place out of sheer terror.
•
The boss here is a saber-toothed tiger who is permanently hot under the collar.
In the (Primordial) Soup
•
Three levels.
•
This swampy area features lots of platforms under the water.
•
Chuck can swim underwater, floating to the surface when you release control and drifting to the bottom when he loses a life.
•
Use the frogs in the murk to jump, and face a fat blue sea monster for a boss.
Chuck Chills Out in the Ice Age
•
Four levels.
•
The ice is blue, and Chuck must face a wild and woolly mammoth boss.
•
Smaller red woolly tusked creatures can help Chuck jump to inaccessible places.
•
These creatures will suck Chuck into their trunks and shoot him through the air.
Dead Dinos—or Are They?
•
Three levels.
•
This dinosaur graveyard is far from quiet, as some of these dinos are not actually dead.
•
Even some of the creatures that Chuck knocks off will come back to haunt him.
•
Curled-up red snakes can be useful; give them a kick and they will stretch out for Chuck to walk on.
•
The boss dinosaur is the baddest of them all.

How to Play
Scoring and Surviving
You score points—and Chuck survives to see his fair Ophelia once more—by wiping out creatures that get in his way and by collecting many different items.
Chuck's Abilities
Light on his feet for a big man, Chuck can walk, jump, swim, and lift and throw heavy rocks.
In addition to chucking rocks to repel onrushing dinosaurs, Chuck can also use them as stepping-stones to get to otherwise inaccessible places. But he can carry only one rock at a time.
Tips & Maps
carrying stones
Chuck can only carry one stone at a time, and his jumping ability is limited when he is weighed down by a big stone.
jump-kick
Chuck can perform a hefty jump-kick to deal with obstacles and enemies, which is especially useful for knocking out flying creatures.
belly butt
Chuck can use his prodigious belly to butt enemies away or destroy them altogether.
