Kiwi Kraze (The NewZealand Story) is a platformer released in 1991 for the Nintendo NES. The game centers around navigating various maze-like levels to rescue captured kiwis, the main characters, from enemies and obstacles that block the path.

The primary objective is to reach the end of each stage while defeating or avoiding foes. The pace of the game is moderately challenging, requiring precise timing and strategic movement to progress. Players must collect keys, free trapped birds, and find the exit to complete levels.

A distinctive mechanic in Kiwi Kraze is the ability to jump on enemies to defeat them, combined with environmental puzzles such as breaking blocks or manipulating platforms. The unusual idea of featuring kiwis as protagonists, set in a cartoonish version of New Zealand, adds a unique charm and cultural touch to the gameplay experience.
