Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             The New Zealand Story
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    Taito
RELEASED:         1990
TYPE:             Platform
LANGUAGE:         English

PREMISE:          You are the only kiwi chick left in all of New Zealand,
                  because a nasty walrus has bagged all of your buddies.
                  Your job - rescue them.

IMPRESSIONS:      Stupid premise, but this is a cute and rather addictive
                  Mario clone that has inspired a following of its own.

VARIATIONS:       Kiwi Kraze (alternate title)

The Mega Drive version of this had levels redesigned from the arcade original. It is also IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND! This game is one of the gold dust cartridges, along with Rainbow Islands that are stupidly hard to find!

It does hook you, but what a weird friggin' game. Grade: C+

Here chicky chicky - this great game made me wonder how tasty Kiwi bird is to eat and how you would cook it - I imagine it would taste like pheasant or quail and hopefully not like a blackbird, and I would probably go for grilling with some fantastic sage and onion stuffing pushed inside and glazed with honey - anybody?
