Exclamation Searching for game!

I just remembered this old game, which I used to like.. I don't remember much about it, just a few details. (I was about 6 year old or something when I played it). I only remember that the game was located in a jungle (at least the level I remember). The main character had some sort of a blade if I remember correctly. The game was side-scrolling, but didn't have those ''look at'' or ''use'' keys at the bottom of the screen. (Or anywhere else). The only 2 things I remember for sure are: At the right side of the first area there was a girl in a wooden cage. I was supposed to save her. And the other thing: When I walked to the next screen I got killed near the middle part of the screen by a lion, if I remember correctly (but not sure about this).. xD

Perhaps Bermuda Syndrome?

Please be more specific. What year was that?

Was the game controlled with mouse, keyboard or joystick?

Also, was this game played under DOS or Windows? (considerably narrows the search)

Definitely Bermuda Syndrome (probably).

When I was six years old, it was 1997. But I can't say tha i was 6, just something around that age. And the game was not controlled with joystick, and probably now with mouse

I can answer that soon...

Edit: Ok I have the game now but I can't run it... After all, the game is old. Any way to make it work? For example, it can't be run with DoxBox because it's a Windows game..

I know he hasn't tested the game yet, but I'm going to throw this name out there anyway...
