The game uses a side-scrolling perspective with jumping, climbing, attacking, and hazard avoidance at its core. The caveman can use melee and throwable weapons to fight enemies while collecting food and items to restore health or gain advantages. Stages feature hidden routes, breakable sections, and varied terrain, with progression handled through linear level completion that emphasizes exploration and timing.

Prehistorik Man
The main protagonist, a caveman who hunts for food and fights prehistoric creatures across the game's stages.
Strategy
Collect food and usable weapons whenever possible so you are prepared for long stretches and repeated fights. Against fast dinosaurs, avoid close-range trades and use jumps and terrain height to create safer attack windows. Check walls and breakable areas for hidden paths and extra supplies, since many useful items are tucked away off the main route.
