The jungle opening
Conrad wakes in an alien jungle and must find a way through its platforms and hazards. This original Macintosh demo presents the opening sequence and a limited portion of the game, rather than the commercial release.
Press any key to leave the publisher splash, then select START with Return before the title menu's roughly ten-second idle timeout. Space does not select a menu item. The idle DEMO option plays recorded input; press a key to leave it and return to the menu before starting an interactive game.
Use the arrow keys to move; Shift is the action key. A published release-browser check reached the interactive jungle opening and verified Conrad moving right and back left across its first platform. This verifies first-scene control, not a complete level playthrough.
