Originally released in the early 90s on Japanese soil as an arcade game, Joe & Mac: Caveman Ninja is an arcade game / platformer, playable solo or in cooperation. This new iteration of the game, developed by Mr. Nutz Studio (Toki, Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All!), will invite players to go back to the Prehistoric Age and embody Prehistoric Men, ready to do anything to save the women of their tribe.
