The evil Kogg is working to rule everything and destroy the land. Play as Klayman to take down the bad guy and save the land and its people, as you are the only one who can do it. There are ape-like creatures working under Kogg that do everything in their power to stop Klayman from completing his mission. The Claymation characters and environment are due to 2D platformer technology. There are 90 levels to tackle spread among the seven worlds in the game. The objective for players is to destroy the Skullmonkeys by butt-bouncing them on the head or firing projectile weapons.
