Story
Story
Kao must deliver the world of animals from the hands of the evil hunter and his wicked henchmen. Kao can count on his friends, like the Firefly and the Parrot, to help him.
Help Kao explore many worlds, from the Arctic to Australia. Control amazing vehicles, master fighting techniques, and overcome loads of enemies!
There are lots of power-ups to collect, hidden areas to find, and bonus levels to explore. Grab your boxing gloves and get ready for action!
Kao's World
The game begins on a ship, where Kao's friend, Parrot, rescues him. After escaping, Kao finds himself in Dark Docks, where he will start his adventures.
Talk to animals in Dark Docks to get them to take you to their world, where your help is needed. After finishing each world and beating the boss, Kao returns to Dark Docks, where he must find another of his friends and undertake the next adventure.
While Kao helps his animal friends, he must collect 3,000 ducats to bribe the Boatswain into letting him enter Hunter Barnaba's domain, the Abandoned Town.
You can go back to Dark Docks at any time, even if you haven't yet completed the current level. To do so, choose Back to Hub from the Pause Menu.
To continue the adventure from Dark Docks, talk to Firefly and choose the last incomplete level from the panel that appears.
