Whomp ‘Em Game Manual

Whomp ‘Em is an action platformer, akin to many games at the time. While the protagonist in the Japanese version is Sun Wukong, the King Monkey, one of the most popular characters in the Chinese culture, Whomp ‘Em is notable for being one of the few video games to feature a Native American as the protagonist.

After completing the first stage, the player can play the other six in any order. Each of the stages revolve around elements, such as fire and water. After each stage, the player gains a new weapon, much like in the original Mega Man series, which was extremely popular at the time. Both Whomp ‘Em and the prior Saiyuki World (which was an adaptation of Wonder Boy in Monster Land) are based on the Journey to the West novel.
