Kiwi Kraze - A Bird-Brained Adventure! Game

Ever dreamed of playing as a plucky kiwi bird on a mission to rescue its kidnapped mate from a bunch of pesky predators? Kiwi Kraze (also known as The NewZealand Story in some regions) lets you do just that—with a twist! This NES gem turns you into Tiki, a fearless little kiwi armed with a bow and arrow, bouncing, flying, and puzzle-solving through vibrant, enemy-packed levels. The catch? You’re not just fighting foes; you’re outsmarting them, hopping into balloons for flight, and even hijacking enemy vehicles (yes, including UFOs!).

What makes Kiwi Kraze stand out is its quirky charm and deceptively tricky gameplay. It’s cute but challenging, with level designs that keep you on your toes—think Bubble Bobble meets Mario, but with a kiwi’s unique flair. Released in the late '80s, it’s a nostalgic trip for retro gamers and a hidden gem for newcomers who love fast-paced, inventive platformers. Just don’t let the adorable graphics fool you—this bird’s adventure is anything but easy!
