Crusader of Centy trivia,
from someone who'd know:

"If you talk to the Cheetah pre-race, you can pay them 50 malins to go easy on you."

"During dev, our designer lady still couldn't win, so you can keep bribing him to drop his speed up to 4 times, making him laughably slow"

"Toki" is now $2.08 in Nintendo eShop!
Sale ends on November 25, 2022.

The protagonist of the game is a muscular, loincloth-wearing, Tarzanesque tribesman named Toki (JuJu in the Japanese version), who up until recently lived a primitive yet contented life in the jungles of a vast and wild island in the South Seas.
This all ends tragically when the beautiful Wanda (Miho in the Japanese version), princess of Toki's tribe of jungle men and potential suitor to Toki, is kidnapped by the genetic engineer Dr. Stark (the witch doctor Vookimedlo in the Japanese version).
Wanda is taken to a vast golden palace at the summit of the island, which Vookimedlo has conjured up for himself to reside in.

Toki himself is transformed into a Geeshergam, one of the ape-like minions of Dr. Stark.
Fortunately, the great warrior discovers that he is still in control of his own faculties and as an unexpected side effect of the spell cast on him, he can breathe fire and shoot forth various projectiles from his mouth.
Toki then sets off on a quest to pursue and defeat Dr. Stark, rescue the princess Wanda, and undo the curse which has befallen the island.
