Rather than stay close to the source material, Monty on the Run was drastically changed for this release. Renamed Monty no Doki Doki Daisassou, or "Monty's Heart-Pounding Great Escape", the game plays much more like a straightforward NES platformer. It still retains some aspects of the original, such as a version of Hubbard's famous theme and obtaining necessary escape items.
