The video game Monkey Magic is based on the anime series of the same name,^[2] an adaptation of the 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West.^[3]

It is a sidescrolling action/platform game with a blend of RPG-like elements; unique features include the ability to switch between the foreground, middle, and background layers in some sections, and four magic spells - Fire, Ice, Shrink, and Blossom - which can be cast on either the player's character (to cancel out enemy spells, for instance) or on enemies as a projectile.
